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.

Great doctor
Very friendly and knowledgeable. He performed my cataract surgery which went very well. Office staff friendly but there seems to be an issue with keeping OD’s on staff and Dr. Walline exceptionally busy every time I have made a visit which makes visit feel rushed. Appointment times often run late but Dr. Walline is excellent

Excellent
Dr. Walline has taken care of our family ophthalmology (eye) care for many years now and we are lucky to have his help when we need it. At Sebatis the staff is another A+ benefit.

Annual checkup port cataract surgery
Dr Walline did a thorough & proficient exam of my eyes. He was courteous, kind and friendly. His explanation of my floaters gave me reassurance that they probably wouldn’t get worse and that they might even diminish.

Simply The Best
I came in as a new patient in pain and they got me in very quickly. From the front desk to the medical assistants, to the doctor and on to the woman who made my next follow-up appointment-all were extremely kind and professional. Even though it was end of the day, in no way was I rushed, as the doctor took a great deal of time explaining things and discussing my care. I definitely felt treated as a partner in my care there, rather than simply a patient. As well, he took the time to counsel me on some issues that another family member is having. Five Stars all the way!

I've been seeing Dr. Walline for several years. I had started taking my Mom to see him after a very bad experience with her previous ophthalmologist. Then I began seeing him when I needed an ophthalmologist. He is exceptional. I recommend him highly.
