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. Gellender performed lens implants on both eyes in 2003. Remarkable job, as I had a difficult case (cataracts in 1982, aphakic (no lenses)) since then. I would highly Dr. Gellender, as I recommended him to my daughter for LASIK in 2008.

The appointment was a total fail and complete waste of my time. Made it at 0830 in the morning. Received ~20 minutes of paper work to fill out in advance via US mail and completed that. Showed up on time and then promptly sat in the waiting room for 50 minutes without ever being called. Evidently, this center places zero value on patient time. I finally had to leave to catch my flight. This doctor and practice evidently places zero value on their patient's time.

He performed two cataract removals and implanted multifocal toric lenses. The results were terrific, and I am very happy. The office staff were pleasant and helpful, and the surgery center was top-notch.

Three years ago, I was referred to Dr. Gelender by my optometrist for a LASIK procedure. My near sight vision at the time had been stable for many years with no medical history. Dr. Gelender did the first LASIK procedure around January and 2 months into the procedure I started noticing a change in my eye sight enough to have a touch up done on one eye 4 months after the initial procedure. It’s been three years now and every year my eye sight had gotten worse. I went back to see Dr. Gelender and
