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.

Excellent doctor
Staff was courteous and efficient. The office was busy but you could tell the staff was working hard to get the patients in and out of the office in a timely manner with a smile on their face. Dr. Sherman was very knowledgeable and friendly. They were great for our families needs.

Horrible
My son was having trouble seeing at school. Went to Sherman who’s bedside manner sucked. Basically said we were the cause and my wife came home in tears. Prescribed glasses and suggested drops with horrible side effects. We finally left him, went somewhere else and now my son after 3 treatments can see without glasses. Look elsewhere.

Dr. Sherman was recommended to me after my doctor retired. He has always been kind and friendly. It's rare to find a doctor that cares about his patients and provide them with outstanding service. Unfortunately, a recent job transfer to another state has ended my medical care with Dr. Sherman. I would have remained under his care if the distance wasn't too far. I highly recommend becoming a patient.

Our experience with Dr. Sherman has been great. He has always explained everything well. My daughter has had two corrective surgeries and both went very well. Dr. Sherman even called the evening after the surgery to check in and gave us his cell number in case we needed anything.

For over a decade, Dr. Sherman has cared for various needs of members of my family of six. He has performed eye surgery (with follow ups) on one of my children, recommended a different surgeon for my daughter, removed a foreign object from my son's eye, and recommended glasses for my other daughter. He has also helped me (the mom) with various eye issues over the years. He is skilled. He communicates his concerns and our needs effectively. We are very thankful for him!
