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.

Excellent care for my aging eyes
Any my recent appointment with Dr. Brocato much time was spent discussing conditions with my eyes and also information about cataract surgery. He took all the time I needed to understand changes in my eyes and how cataract surgery would impact them. It was a very good session. I have been a patient there for many years and have always been pleased with the care and attention given to me.

One person in the reception was very short and rude with me. I am 85 and don't have access to a computer , my husband, in hospice care, was the one who handled all work on line for us. So when I asked to fill out the form, the receptionist was rude and practically through the form at me to fill out. I am sorry but I cannot fill out forms online.
