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.

I have referred several people to Dr. Hawks
Dr. Hawks is great at describing your eye health and is very reassuring. He is personable and does not rush the visit.

Excellent provider
Office is organized and well run; little to no waiting at appt time. Dr Hawks is a good listener; thorough and explains eye changes effectively. I have a difficult prescription and he has worked tirelessly, over the past 20+ years, to keep my vision at an optimal level. Highly recommend!
