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.

I had a very positive experience with this business. The entire staff was friendly and professional. They took the time to answer all my questions. Dr. Cepela did an amazing job. I had upper and lower eyelid surgery and full face laser treatment. I am extremely pleased with the results. I highly recommend Dr. Cepela.

I had blepharoplasty surgery on my lower lids to remove bags. So far so good. It has been almost 4 weeks. I am gradually seeing a difference. I am a women of color and didn't see too many photos of women that look like me. I think in about 3 months it will look perfect. I highly recommend Dr Cepella. You will see my photos soon.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Cepela?
I was told there was one patient ahead of me, but not seen by the doctor for 1 1/2 hours during which time no one came into the room to explain any delays. When I left the facility after 2 1/2 hours, close to closing time, the waiting room had ten people in it (some were asleep). The doctor has excellent training/and is perhaps brilliant, but he examined my eyes for issues for which I had no complaints. He recommended cosmetic work, which I cannot afford.

The main problem with Dr Cepela is that he schedules his patients tooooo close together and that causes others to have to wait way past their appointment time; also they always have an excuse for being late(we had an emergency).I will give him credit for doing great surgery.
