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.

Gold standard. Been with him for years.

2/2022 Cataract Surgery. Dr. Sayegh pronounced SAGE like the color green. Is a great caring supportive surgeon who listened to what I had to say then he answered every question I had. On the day of my first operation I made my co payment insurance ect signed papers. Sat in waiting room about 10 min. Nurse called me into pre op. The nurses were all very nice, the Anesthesiologist was very nice. He told me he would be giving me something to relax me and I would be awake during surgery. I was taken into the OR the Dr. Told me he may tell me to blink during surgery. Before I knew it I was taken into recovery. I was given juice and crackers. I couldn't have asked for a better Dr. and staff. I will have my other eye donebin 2 weeks. I can read fine print on a can now. Thank You Dr. Sayegh and supporting staff. I had a great experience.

I spoke to many people about their cataract surgeries and the name of Dr. Michael Sayegh kept coming up. They were all very happy with their results so I decided to use him. He explained everything very thoroughly as well as the benefits of getting Panoptic lenses. He said I wouldn't need glasses after the surgery. I had the lenses done on each eye and have to say I am absolutely delighted with the results. I can see very well without glasses! I would recommend Dr. Sayegh to anyone who is considering cataract surgery.

I have been using Dr Sayegh for years and have had cataract surgery and am now dealing with borderline glaucoma. He takes excellent care of me. My surgery went perfectly with no problems, He has a great "bedside" manner and explains everything thoroughly. I recommend him highly!

I had cataract/intraocular lens surgery in April. My experience with Dr Sayegh and his staff was excellent. His staff were all very professional, friendly and made me feel at ease. They all work very well together. Everything went smoothly. If I knew ahead of time how easy this would be, I would of had this surgery done sooner. I highly recommend anyone who is considering this surgery to choose Dr Sayegh!

Dr. Sayegh is the most competent and compassionate doctor I have seen to date. He took the time to listen to my concerns without rushing me, gave me a thorough examination and made a diagnosis. He explained my condition and answered my questions. He did all of which other doctors have failed to do. I appreciate Dr. Sayegh’s expertise and kindness and will never go anywhere else.
