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. Garrett is very professional and approachable. Recommended!

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Garrett?
Dr. Garrett was on call. I had a question regarding scheduled cataract surgery. Needed information regarding drops to be started 3 days prior to surgery. He refused to talk to me directly. The answering service relayed information that did not answer my question. He could have alleviated my anxiety with a few words of reassurance. Disappointed in his lack of concern for patient's peace of mind. This occurred on a Friday evening. Could not get reassurance until Monday during office hours.

Disappointed that Dr. Garrett's staff did not review the medication list that I filled out (also the doctor didn't look at the form I filled out). They did not do sufficient eye exams to allow me a refill of Plaquenil by my rheumatologist, meaning I wasted time with my visit. When I discussed this with nurse on the phone, she never apologized but did offer me another appointment. Will not reschedule with an office that wasted 2 hours of my day.
