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.

Appreciation for Dr. Luminais
The office staff (especially Kathy from Australia) were excellent. Dr. Luminais described his findings and suggested ways to improve my reading experience. I’m grateful he explained how I don’t need cataract surgery yet.

Dr. Luminais and staff are great.
I’ve been seeing him for years. He truly is a great doctor. In fact, he detected a medical condition with my mother and thanks to him she had a successful surgery and I’ll never forget it. I am grateful to have him in my corner because he truly cares. Also, I just love his personality. He’s funny too.

Mine was a follow up visit to assess and discuss my current condition following a previous assessment of cataracts and "floaters". I had been seeing better and was assessed and then asked to make an appointment in 2 years. This is a busy practice and thoroughly professional in that they will discuss Ophthalmology issues at the level you can understand. I can't reccomend them highly enough

Dr Luminais and his staff are very pleasant , efficient and professional with all they did for my Mother during her visit. We were greeted by Melanie who was very pleasant and patient and kind to my Mother and I was very appreciative for her pleasant personality. Dr.Luminais always treats my Mother with the utmost generous and kind manner. I would highly recommend this practice to others.

This was my first visit here and I was very nervous because I don't like anyone messing with my eyes. The whole staff made me feel very comfortable and they had no problem waiting or giving me a few minutes when my anxiety was high . They answered all my questions, explained all my options and even though I will never be 100% comfortable with eye exams .I know with their help I can make it through it. I will definitely recommend them and I will be going back again . ??????????

Dr. Luminais and the entire staff are excellent. Everyone knows their job and carries it out efficiently and yet with care and concern. I was particularly impressed by my last visit : the procedures in place to reduce virus transmission were well done and made me feel safe from the time I walked in until I left.

One of the best eye doctors ever! Very smart, funny, caring, and very thorough. He takes his time and never makes me feel rushed at all. He answers all questions in detail and makes sure you understand all of your treatment options and wants to know what type of treatment you would like as well. He answers everything in complete honesty. You know you're in very good hands with him and he would never just "sell" you anything. Everything is in your best interest. Amazing guy.
