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.

Very satisfied patient
The proper mood was set upon entering the office. Friendly, courteous, and welcoming. Techs continued the mood and set the stage for Dr. Smith and she did not disappoint. Welcoming smile and manner. Listened to my concern, examined the eyes and recommended a course of action. Followed up with another visit and adjusted the treatment. Issue was much improved. Have strong confidence in Dr. Smith.

We were very pleased with the care my mother received from Dr. Smith and her staff. Everyone was very patient with my mom who is dealing with dementia. Some doctors seem to write her off because she is 94, but Dr. Smith and the tech both worked diligently to get the most accurate exam possible. We appreciate their hard work!
