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.

DO NOT GO HERE. Masks are a contentious issue, but a business should be upfront about their policies. I made VERY clear, every time I came here (3 appointments) that I would need to wear an n95 mask during my cataract surgery. The anesthesiologist said this would be fine, and even offered to mask themselves, but didn't know if they still had enough n95's. I offered to supply them, and they said ok. When I got to the surgical center, they said I would only be allowed to wear a surgical mask. They refused the masks we brought (sealed, individually packaged n95's). Then they cancelled the procedure. I have no problem with establishments setting their own rules, but shining a patient on, telling them it would be one way, and then changing everything the day of surgery is very unprofessional. If Dr. Sweeney supports this kind of behavior, I am extremely glad he did not touch my eyes. How are you supposed to trust a surgeon who has lied the entire time?

The office staff are friendly and great. Dr. Sweeney was nice and informative. Only bad thing is every time I go there, I have to wait. I will have eyes done in September.

He is a good doctor. That being said. They overbook, every time. I stopped using him for that reason. I am currently waiting on my mom to come out from her appointment with him. It’s the Covid 19 timeframe so I’m not allowed in. So I’m waiting in my car with it running for a/c. If I would have known it was going to take this long I would have went back to her house. They told her it will only be 1 hour today. As of now it’s 30 minutes past that.

The day after my second cataract surgery, I have 20/15 vision in right eye done 2 weeks ago and 20/20 in my left eye done yesterday. Needless to say I am thrilled with the results. I highly recommend Dr Sweeney.

From all the reviews he may be a good doctor but this is assuming you actually get into see him. My appointment was for 10 AM I ended up leaving at 10:45 having never seen the doctor. The staff didn't seem to care that I was likely a monk 20 or more people waiting in the lobby long after our appointments were scheduled. 15 minutes 20 minutes even 30 minutes is one thing 45 minutes to an hour without a mention from the staff as to why is unacceptable. Thank goodness for online reviews.

I waited at the beginning about 10 minutes, the rest of the time I had very attentive staff guiding me through each of the exams. They were very thorough and explained everything in a way I could clearly understand. Dr. Lynn Ehrhardt is now on staff and amazing at her craft. The staff are warm and friendly. Don't go anywhere else for you eye needs.
