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.

Not good. He did my laser surgery. The results were not great, but I don’t know if he can be blamed for that. I continued to see him. Then when I had an emergency on a weekday during normal business hours his office would not fit me in. I had been his patient for 21 years.

Dr. Gibralter has been my eye doctor for the last 12 years. From my first appointment, it was clear to me that he is exceptional. I look first for knowledge, skill, seriousness, and love of profession in the caregivers I stay with. It is also lovely to find a doctor like this who is authentically kind and pleasant. Dr. Gibralter is all of these things.

It would be impossible to state how great this Doctor and his staff are. Doctor Gibraltar replaced my lens with cataract surgery. He performed the surgery one eye at a time. It was like the movie "Wizard of Oz." For the first time in as long as I could remember that I could see vibrant color. He was great, professional and I could recommend no Doctor higher than I recommend Doctor Gibraltar. The office personnel in his office are outstanding -- better than any other doctor's office.
