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.

High level if confidence in Dr. Root and his handling of my potential serious situation with my vision. Highly recommended.

Good Doctor
I found him by having an emergency eye problem and got in quickly and was given the proper meds for cure. I went back six months later for my yearly exam. I trust and feel in good care with him.

I had an emergency situation and Dr. Root helped me resolve it, assuring me that there was no more serious issue with my eyes, which was a great relief to me. Tomoka was very busy that day, and I am very grateful that they helped me so that I did not have to go to ER. I highly recommend Dr. Root and Tomoka. Thank you.

Dr Root was very thorough,gentle,kind,compassionate and communicated well. He took time and did not rush. He made time for questions and told me to call back if my eye was not healing,and he would see me right away.
