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.

Dr. Fischer III gave me a gift that's priceless. How do thank someone for that. He fixed my astigmatism, laser treated my cataracts and put lenses in that work so well together that I don't have to wear glasses unless my eyes get tired of reading. All that gave me a new outlook on my life. His bedside manor is amazing. I felt very relaxed and comfortable with him. I prayed that God would direct his hands and my prayers were answered. God bless him in all that he does. Thank you Doc! You are my hero,,,??

Do you see what I see?
I'm not even sure where to start. Dr. Frank Fischer gave my my life back. I had rapid developing cataracts in both eyes. I had already become legally blind in my left eye and my right eyes was deteriorating quickly. Vision in my left eye was 2200. That's not a typo. It was two thousand two hundred. I had already lost my ability to drive at night and was about to lose my license do to my vision. Well here comes Dr. Fischer, scalpel in hand waving around like a Knight of to battle the dragon. Ok it was quite like that but I do feel like he's a genuinely great Doctor. The day after my first cataract surgery my left eye my vision was 20/25. I'm not kidding. When I first started to see things again I couldn't believe just how bad my eyes were. I know it's over used but it was like I just got High Definition vision. I was lucky because it went so with my left eye two weeks later I was able to get cataract surgery on my right eye. I know have 20/25 vision in my right eye. You can trust him.

Dr Fisher did an outstanding job correcting my vision He successfully repaired a caterac in my left eye and then two weeks later he removed a Caterac in my right eye and inserted a new lense. With my new glasses I now see perfectly after years of blurry and poor vision I would highly recommend Dr Fisher to anyone needing Caterac surgery.

Dr. Fisher removed cataracts from both my eyes, one May 1, 1918 and the other June 12, 1918. Easy, painless procedures. I put off the surgery for 2 years because I was so scared at the thought of eye surgery. Now I would urge anyone needing cataracts removed to go ahead and do it! Dr. Fischer is a good doctor and all the staff are friendly and helpful. I would do it again in a heartbeat with no apprehension at all.

I highly recommend Dr. Fischer 111. He has just completed removing cataracts from both eyes. I chose the laser route and paid the extra money required.. He is very polite, knowledgeable --a 5 star doctor. Office was clean & staff was polite. The assistants checking my eyes and preparing me for the doctor to see me were well trained and polite. The surgery team on Ave. K were excellent. A 5 star to all of them.
