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.

Been a patient for a few years now. I am currently 45 & started wearing glasses in 4th grade; he is the BEST eye doc that I’ve ever had. He is knowledgeable, patient, genuine, professional, and sincere. I’m a tough contact lens wearer and he has been able to keep me in them comfortably. Highly, highly recommend this physician!

I recently went to see Dr. Shinneman because my vision had changed. When Dr. Shinneman told me that I needed bifocals I had a lot of questions and concerns. Dr. Shinneman was extremely patient and took the time to answer all my questions. After talking with Dr. Shinneman I felt exceptionally comfortable and confident with the idea of wearing bifocals even before I was actually fitted. Going to Dr. Shinneman was the best decision I could have made for my eyes and peace of mind.

He is the first doctor to be able to fit me in contacts that were comfortable. I would highly recommend him.
