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.

Dr Lingua ruined my daughter's eyes. She came in for a drifting left eye, after 2 surgery's we now have a permanent V pattern were her eyes go out when she looks up and her left eye still drifts out. It was a awful experience and he minimized the outcome which makes this so much worse.

My adult son was referred to Dr. Lingua by his ophthalmologist. I've seen Dr. Lingua myself before and he's a fine ophthalmologist trusting his residents to do most of the testing. Prospective patient should know that a visit to Dr. Lingua includes the bill for his professional services ($352) and surprising second bill for a UCI facility charge ($245) A simple eye appointment cost nearly $600. Feeling taken advantage of by a medical system we've respected and been loyal to for years.

Dr Lingua is always very patient and gentle with my grandaughter who has been seeing him since she was about 7 months old. She's been in glasses since 8 months and is now 3. She loves going to see him and is never afraid or nervous. Dr. Lingua is very soft spoken and easily develops a rapport with children and answers any questions you may have.

We traveled from Colorado to have the best Surgeon in the world correct our sons Nystagmus and were not disappointed. Pretty much DR. Lingua was a prayer answered and our son no longer needs a walking stick and can read letter and see thing he never could see before.
