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.

Worst Experience
I understand a doctor being behind schedule, even 1.5 hours as was the case with Dr. Dave. What I don't understand is being rushed through an important visit to discuss cataract surgery. What's even worse, when Dr. Dave asked if I had any questions after her rushed examination, her repetitive answers were 'those questions aren't important now.' She was absolutely no help in helping me determine what type of cataract surgery is best for me. She responded as if I were choosing an outfit for the day, not the extremely important decision for my future eyesight. Also, when I made the appointment, I was not told my eyes would be dilated at this visit, so I was left with no warning to figure out how to get home safely, since I drove myself to the appointment. There is no way I would trust my eyesight to Sonai B. Dave or her staff.

Dr. Dave is an awesome doctor. She is both very professional and personable. Recently, I had Cataract surgery and was thrilled with the results. Of course, eyes are very precious and something that anyone would be a bit apprehensive about, but I've been seeing Dr. Dave for several years and felt she was extremely competent. Cataract surgery honestly changed my life.. my vision is exquisitely sharp and colorful again. She changed a big part of my life. Thank you Dr. Dave!
