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.

Just wants to sell stuff
At first I thought I was in good hands. Then he tried to sell me $300 worth of dry eye treatments when I went there to see if I could get my eye repaired from a surgery I had years ago. He assured me that he was going to “rock my world “ with special $4800 scleral lenses. Then he does two tests and says sorry I can’t get your vision good enough not worth it you need a cornea transplant. Went to another Dr. He can get my vision to a tolerable level using regular soft lenses. Weshefsky is a also a megalomaniac. He told me he was the only person that could help me. He rocked my world alright, scaring me into thinking I needed a transplant. He just wants to see the dry eye stuff.

During first visit Dr Weshefsky stated I needed to buy eye mask and omega tablets from him to help with severe dry eyes. After second appointment he EMAILED me canceling my next appointment because he could not help me. He left me high and dry after starting me with serum drops, too. I had to find other provider to call in New script. Very unethical optometrist who is one of the most uncaring and egotistical doctors I have ever met.

Also, when you first arrive, they make you use their hand gel which is really greasy and gross and doesn't soak in or evaporate. They need to get new hand gel or offer to let you wash your hands.

He is very knowledgeable in his profession and his practice has "state of the art" technology. My exam was the best since I moved here 6 years ago. My search is over, I found a great Optometrist.

This physician gave me one of the best eye exams I have had in a long time. It was very thorough and I came out knowing I had the correct diagnosis. He took his time and answered all of my questions. I recommend him highly.
