Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I had Fuch's dystrophy in both eyes. After dismal experience with another eye doctor, I found Dr. Patel. He is an awesome doctor, surgeon, and explains everything and cares about his patience. I had two corneal transplants and can now see again. I would not trust this type of eye surgery to anyone else. Two days ago I could not see out of my left eye. Today I am typing this message using only my left eye on a cell phone.. Thank you Dr. Patel.
