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.

Shameful
I would never recommend this practice to anyone. I went through great efforts to take my elderly parent with mobility problems and the doctor refused to see him. We arrived right on time for our appointment and the first thing we were asked for was a credit card number, which I found strange but agreed to provide. Unfortunately, he did not have a photo ID as he is disabled and no longer able to drive, but we had other forms of proof and valid insurance, that we pre-checked would be accepted. They tried to ask for a passport. I begged and said the minute I got home I would immediately send a photo of his passport, but they refused. Considering the circumstances and difficulty to get to the appointment, they should be ashamed. They clearly refused to treat him based on his appearance. The doctor has a complete disregard for human dignity and is clearly monetarily focused. location 244 Westchester Ave.

You are in good hands with Dr Chon. I have had a number of surgeries on my injured eye having to do with my eyelid closure. This last surgery with Dr Chon is the best result so far. A lot of medical knowhow and an amount of artistic sensibility has made for a good result.

Talented and Skill Surgeon
Dr. Chon performed a complex blepharoplasty requiring grafting. The results were astounding. He has an excellent bedside manner, answers questions thoroughly and brought me in right away when I came in for my office visits. I feel grateful to have found this skillful surgeon. I highly recommend him. I interviewed multiple surgeons and had no reservations about him performing my surgery.

I had a procedure done with doctor Chon ( removal of cyst on my right lower eyelid ), I was very nervous but Doctor Chon made me feel at ease. He also answered all questions and doubts I had before the procedure began. He was professional, knowledgeable, and most importantly he made sure I was comfortable. I highly recommend Doctor Chon, and definitely will like to comeback to him in the near future for other procedures. Thank you Doctor chon , my eyelid is healing well! Sincerely, Maria Tosto

Dr. Brian Chon recently performed surgery on my eye to repair damage from Bells Palsy. My experience from start to finish was truly a wonderful experience. From the moment I arrived at Bergen Passaic Cataract & Laser Center, each person I encountered was polite and cared about me. Dr. Chon's surgical team was top of the line. Dr. Chon is a credit to his profession. His bedside manner is second to none. Thanks for being there for me.

Dr. Chon was incredibly knowledgeable, efficient, and kind during my visit! During my appointment, he took time to address each of my questions/concerns and made sure to include my input when deciding on the best plan of action. Part of the appointment included an incision and drainage, and he made sure to talk through each step of the procedure with me to help me feel more comfortable. I especially liked how his office utilizes an online system/portal - it provided me a copy of my appointment summary and gave me a chance to e-mail Dr. Chon in case I had any follow-up questions. He made sure to check in with me regarding how my incision was healing after my appointment as well, which I really appreciated.
