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.

Amazing, thorough, service. The office space is beautiful, staff and doctors so warm, welcoming and professional. The quality of tests administered to get an accurate assessment made me feel great and assured. The doctor was extremely thorough and provided a great regime to handle my chronic eye issue. They made sure to answer all of my questions, and are extremely informative. Outstanding communication with Rita, the office manager. Glad I'm here for 10+ years!

Doctor Genis is an amazing doctor! She performed a complicated cataract surgery for my 76 yo mother, who was completely blind on 1 eye; everything went very well, and when next day following the surgery Dr. Genis removed the protective eye cover, my mom started crying as she was so very happy to be able to see again. Thank you, amazing Dr. Genis!
