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 have been seeing Dr. Lissner since the mid 90’s. He is a wonderful eye doctor that is very caring and careful. He is also very thorough. That said, it’s been a minute since I’ve seen him (moved to MI in 2017), so I hope he’s doing well. I intend to see him the next time I’m in the city.

What can you say about an eye doctor who never looks you in the eye when he's talking to you? He may be a superior ophthalmic surgeon but I found him to be unsatisfactory at the basic level of trust. Then again, I am a super-picky person when it comes to my eyesight.

Dr. Lissner had a wonderful, kind disposition and took his time explaining everything. I felt he was cheering for the best possible outcome. He was pleased to find that I did not need surgery at this point in time for my cataracts.
