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. Weiter is great !
Dr. Weiter has been checking my retinas each year for the past 10 years and he and his staff are always professional, competent and caring. I was originally referred to Weiter by my ophthalmologist, Dr. Robert Kellan, who I've been visiting annually since 1969 and was concerned about the health of my retinas, which so far are doing great!

One of the worst experiences with a doctor, ever. While I was seriously losing my eyesight, he grossly misdiagnosed the problem. Wasted weeks filled with anxiety and no relief. Fortunately, I went for a second opinion and they were shocked at Weiter's lack of insight (pun intended) and misdirection.
