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.

He's aggressive, he yelled at a staff in the next room, and then came back like things were normal. Unhinged behavior. I don't trust him to be level headed and decent because if he is okay with yelling at people, who knows what else he will do. Overall negative experience, do not recommend.

I recommend this Ophthalmologist
Dr. Sierpina was always professional and helpful. He called me back if I had additional questions. Cataract surgery was quick and painless. The time released antibiotics and use of anti inflammatory drops worked well with excellent results. Recovery was as expected with 20/20 vision in the operated eye.

Caring dedicated doctor
Dr. Sierpina is our family hero! He is a good and caring, dedicated man - and a great representative of Loma Linda Eye Institute. He met our challenges when our fears were high and our hopes were low. He held a conference - made us promises - then kept them ALL. All our fears turned into tears of joy and celebration. My God bless him and the entire institution for the great work so rewarding that they do! Our support and prayers will be with you as you go forward in this world where there is such a great need! Keep up the wonderful work at Loma Linda - and we believe you will! Annie Chavez on behalf of Janice Davidson

Dr. Sierpina did an outstanding job performing my cataract surgery. Very professional and knowledgable. I was amazed at the results and strongly recommend him. I could not wait for my second eye surgery to be completed. Excellent doctor for cataract surgery.

Dr. S. is beyond doubt the finest physician (of any specialty) that I have ever met. My best impression of him is his patience in addressing every concern of mine, because, needless to say, surgery on my eyes was a very scary prospect. I'm 72, and in a lifetime of physicians, he is the only one that on every visit has never rushed off to his next appointment - i.e., he makes me feel relaxed as he clearly explains everything, including discussing not just the future surgery but also, after the surgeries, the results of my procedures, and is willing to take as much time as it takes - he doesn't leave until he, and I, are completely at ease. And needless to say, his cataract surgeries on my two eyes went exceedingly well. I am thrilled with the results (e.g., they were placed perfectly), as well as with the vision improvements I've found. I'm telling everyone (in my age bracket) how great the experience has been with Dr. S.

I was taken to the inner office right on time- after that there is a bit of a wait which is unavoidable due to the wait needed after eye gtts are instilled. Staff is very pleasant and helpful-Dr. Sierpina is most affable and professional without being stiff. The only problem I have is not just a problem with this medical facility but with all I have visited. I have a BIG problem being called by my first name by people I don't even know. In some cultures that is disrespectful and that also places the patient in a position that could be seen as that of a child. As elders in the community, we deserve the respect we have lived long enough to earn. I will continue to correct staff members when they address me by my first name.

My eyesight was going dim, and I was frightened of the prospect of not being able to enjoy my life. Dr. Sierpina not only gave me back my eyes, but he also gave me back hope. His wonderful conversational manner, his bright and clever wit, kept me comfortable and informed all the way through my procedures, including two surgeries (Cataract Removals) that brought the brilliance of color and clarity back. I call him a miracle worker, and I am so happy I don't know what to say. Thank you, Doctor.

From my initial encounter with Dr. Serapina I felt that I was in the presence of a professional, accomplished, and top of the ladder doctor that would take care of my health issues and bring me the most wonderful and perfect outcome I could ever have imagined. All of my expectations came true, and I now have a renewed life of the best sight I have had in many decades.

I have been a patient of Dr. Sierpina for the last few years. He is always on time, kind, unhurried and answers all of my questions. Dr. Sierpina recently removed a cataract in my right eye and implanted a new lense. The surgery went perfect and going in to that surgery I had complete peace and confidence that I had the right Ophthalogist. I feel very fortunate that I have Dr. Sierpina caring for my eyes. I would definitely recommend him.

Dr David Sierpina performed cataract surgery on both my eyes. He is personable, friendly and took time to answer all questions regarding surgery and recovery. His staff is very friendly, efficient, professional & helpful. Dr Sierpina called me the Sunday afternoon prior to each of the Monday morning surgeries to verify the surgery and to see if i had any questions. I would highly recommend Dr Sierpina and his staff for anyone needing Ophthalmology services.
