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.

Deceptive Billing Practices
Dr. Sorenson is listed as In-Network for my insurance and he claims to accept it, only to find out after my visit that 'my diagnosis is not covered' so I am forced to pay the full amount. This is very deceptive on their part as I was under the assumption that at least part of my visit would be covered by at least an in-network discount.

Knowledgeable of options
I've seen Dr Andrew Sorenson twice for laser treatment for my glaucoma. He was patient and reassuring about the procedure, which was quicker than expected and painless. I am about to have him perform cataract surgery. He offered an alternative to the usual follow up antibiotic eye drops which was a concern. The best news was that the surgery will mean no more glaucoma in that eye! I have been getting pressure checks due to my high pressure at Sorenson and Sorenson for more than 25 years, so that will be a huge relief. I also really appreciate that he volunteers his services in Latin America.

Not your doctor if you want to be listened to
He doesn't listen and his office staff is patronizing. Even when I told him I needed both eyes to be corrected for distance to see comfortably, he insisted that correcting one eye for close and one for distance would be better for me. After a long association, looking for a new ophthalmologist.
