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.

Dr. Drabik quite possibly saved my life during a routine eye exam. She noticed abnormalities and swiftly recognized symptoms of a transient ischemic attack (TIA), a temporary blockage of blood flow to the brain that can precede a stroke. Rather than sending me home, Dr. Drabik firmly insisted I see my primary physician immediately for further testing. Her prudent action led to an ultrasound and MRI which confirmed I had experienced a TIA and required a Carotid endarterectomy. I'm eternally grateful to Dr. Drabik for her expertise, professionalism, and advocacy. Her commitment to my well-being allowed us to catch this serious condition before permanent damage occurred. She went above and beyond, and I cannot recommend this exceptional ophthalmologist enough. Her care made all the difference.

I just moved to the area and had to find an eye doctor. The team members at Bishop Eye Center are great, especially Dr. Drabik. She was friendly, did not rush through the exam, explained everything thoroughly while working, and provided written (and clear) medication instructions! I already have a follow-up appointment scheduled. Also, minimal paperwork by hand at arrival, even for a first visit. They use tech to expedite check-in and minimize time in the lobby, which I think, protects patients and results in less waiting. Very positive experience.

Dr. Drabik was very thorough, explained each procedure or test performed on my wife's eye. She described her observations and defined her diagnosis very clearly. In addition, she took the time necessary to answer any questions we had. All in all, Dr. Drabik was very kind and seemed genuinely empathetic and concerned.
