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.

He retired this FRIDAY, so don't expect him. Try Denise Visco as she is good.

This office was a most welcome change after my experience with my first cataract removal and aftermath at a different ophthalmologist. The staff is well organized and very friendly and helpful. Their organization of having an excellent and knowledgeable optometrist (Dr. Rae-Jenkins) screen for issues shortened the waiting time to see Dr. Olkowki by quite a while. I recommend this office highly.

Dr Olkowski and his staff operated on my cataracts about 3 1/2 years ago, and it was an amazing experience, I had spent so many years working, driving, watching TV, in a grey haze, that an entire world of color and clarity opened up before me! I still marvel daily at my good fortune at having been referred to Wellspan and Dr. O.

Dr. Olkowski, Apple Hill Surgical Center and Apple Hill Eye Associates all get highest grades from me. He (and his office) handled two cataract surgeries for me, and I cannot give high enough praise for professionalism, and the care that I received.
