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 Dorin is the best and has a great bedside manner and understanding

Dr. Dorin saw me on an emergency visit and he was able to calm me down in order to work on me. Now I see him once a year.

Both of my parents have been patients of Dr. Dorin. He had to perform laser on each of them. He monitored them closely, especially my dad, because he was at a higher risk of his retina re-detaching. He is very smart, friendly, and has a wonderful staff. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Warning: Dr. Dorin caused me to have 5 surgeries on one eye, because he incorrectly did my first surgery. Dr. Dorin also caused me to lose quite a bit of my eyesight due to that one surgery which he did. Please do more research before using Dr. Dorin! I wish I could take back the surgery he performed on me!

I have been a patient of Dr. Dorin's for 10 years and have been extremely satisfied with everything he has. He has performed 4 different surgeries on my eyes and each was successful. As someone who has had eye issues for most of the last 50 years I appreciate his knowledge and skills.

Dr. Dorin is not what I thought of him a good honest person. Unfortunately he preformed unethical testing on my eyes resulting in damaging the retina of both eyes because I had to disagree on what he wanted to do at the time I felt was not needed. I regret that I had to go to him and that I would never recommend him to anyone due to his dishonesty and I will never forget or forgive him for what he did to me.
