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.

He has great knowledge and skill in his specialty. We are fortunate to have him available to us locally rather than at some distant university hospital.

Wonderful experience
The first thing you notice when you walk in is how well all of the staff is smiling and getting along with one another. Dr Smith, well I am going on 77 years old, and as you can imagine I have been to a few eye Dr's in my time. I have never had another eye Doctor walk in and speak to me like he had known me all his life, and that he was wanted to explain all of the results from the tests that had his staff take. For as long as I am able to stay in this area, I have found my guy!

Dr Smith was most friendly , warm , attentive and meticulous in examining me. He took pains to explain in detail his findings at every stage of the examination.

Exceptional visit who is Dr. Wm. Smith
The Dr Smith's review of testing results demonstrated his exceptional knowledge.His observation that I had an infection in my eyelids and his explanation of what to do about it was unexpected and appreciated. It would have been even better if he had been allowed to check my vision for new glasses.

Pleased
Doctor Smith’s exam was comprehensive, well explained, and not rushed. I appreciate the fact that he dresses with a sport jacket and tie which conveys respect to his practice and the patient. Only downside was the office seemed overbooked.

Seeing Doctor Smith 10 years. Thoroughly professional and importantly friendly. Goes into detail of the exam procedure and spends about ten minutes reviewing same and remedies. Dr Smith is cut from a rare breed of caring individual.

He’s amazing!
His knowledge is just beyond what you would expect. You can tell he’s been in the business for a spell, his knowledge shows it. I’ve seen another doctor there and this one is just so much thorough it’s amazing the difference. Hope he never retires! And loves the suits

Dr. Smith was recommended by another specialist.
And the recommendation was correct. Dr. Smith is so thorough in how he examines and then how well he explains everything to you. I hope he never retires. :)-
