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 don’t have a google account if I did I would give Dr. Mally a Five Star rating! Dr. Mally did my eyelid lift surgery, had my last follow up appointment yesterday and everything went great! I had no pain but black and bruised for two weeks as expected after my surgery. Dr. Mally is an excellent doctor who displays such wonderful kindness. Thanks Dr, M. Wood

I was misdiagnosed
I was misdiagnosed by Dr. Mally with Optic Neuritis. This sent me down an investigative and terrifying path with a MS neurologist to look for possible MS, autoimmune, or demylinating diseases of the optic nerve with a possible 5-year survival rate. I decided to walk into Emory's main campus Emergency Department and demand all testing that had been ordered (I couldn't get the MRI's ordered by the MS neurologist for 5 weeks) be done NOW. They appropriately triaged me to their neuro opthalmology department and gave me the correct diagnosis of NAION. If you are looking for a top shelf neuro opthalmologist, she is not your person. She should stick with cosmetic surgery and leave it at that.

Dr. Mally did my reconstructive eye surgery from a Moh’s surgical procedure on my bottom eyelid for squamous cell carcinoma. I was very apprehensive about the outcome and what the results would be, but the outcome was far better than I ever imagined. Dr. Mally did an amazing job and the final results look flawless. More important, Dr. Mally has a wonderful calmness and personal interaction with you as a patient. She gives you the trustworthiness and confidence you need to feel in a doctor. She puts you at ease and even escorts you out to the waiting area or even sometimes greets you. I highly recommend her and have already recommended her to others.

I have seen Dr Malley multiple times, including for surgery. I love her demeanor, the way she explains diagnoses and procedures and her expertise. I couldn’t be happier having her as my physician.
