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.

Very Professional and Very Skilled Surgeon
My husband had drooping eyelids which affected his vision extremely!!!Dr. Corder evaluated and examined his particular situation, scheduled surgery. My husband had a great outcome. Saw Dr. Corder for all followup appointments in which Dr. Corder confirmed John’s vision was much improved with the elimination of his drooping eyelids!!Thank you so much, Dr. Corder.John Ericsson

Mixed Review
Dr. Corder is GROUCHY and doesn't mind chewing out her staff while her patients can hear. Myself included, she can also be aloof and unpleasant with patients. Her medical skills are first-rate. and I've come to trust her. I just wouldn't want to be her husband.

Outstanding MD/Surgeon
The initial assessment was methodical and well explained. Pre-op and Post-op were clearly explained. Office staff was friendly and efficient, as well are other clinical staff that participated in my care. A well organized practice.

Lets see if this takes as the other negative reviews about her seem to disappear. Terrible experience. She is rude condescending and very gruff. She didnt seem to know the answers to my eye problems and instead of admitting that tried to turn it back on me. She irdered tests that she in no way intended to act upon them and in the end she used up all my benefits for year without addressing any of my issues. If she would put on her lustening ears she might have been able to help me but instead was too worried about covid and being liked.

A most professional & attentive ophthalmologist who goes above & beyond in providing top-notch care to her patients! She graciously saw & treated me for a cornea ulcer right after Christmas 2019 (& on her unscheduled duty day, plus several visits thereafter). My condition has tremendously improved!!! Special gratitude to Dr. Corder & her superb staff for the outstanding care they gave me!!! :D

Received excellent care from Dr Corder and Staff. Had minor surgery in office. I am impressed with the thoroughness and excellent outcome I had from my minor surgery. Recovery time was short and received calls to check on me frequently.Would recommend Dr Corder for any of your ophthalmology needs!

Probably the best experience I have ever had with a physician. Dr. Corder and her staff explained my surgery (blepharoplasty) so that I knew all of the ramifications beforehand. The surgery was performed on location and my recovery was minimal. Their professionalism and expertise was exceptional and it didn't hurt that everyone seemed to totally enjoy what they did. Also the occasional bits of humor helped to ease any apprehensions I might have had. Great team!

professional and personable...explained procedure. After surgery, no pain, very little bruising. Dr. Corder's staff are most helpful and pleasant. Definitely would return to her for any problems requiring an ophthalmologist.
