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.

Disgusting
Scheduled appointment 8 months ago. Simply cancel without informing. This is not a person who cares for her patients. Don't waste your time, this doctor has no regard for her patients.

I have been a patient of this practice for years. I have seen Dr Overton one time. She has had so many different opthalmologist there in the past 10 years that I have lost count. No doctor seems to stay longer than a year or two. I can only assume that she is a difficult person to deal with. Some of her doctors have been terse and inexperienced. Some have been very good, but when I try to see them again, I am told that they have "left the practice". I have booked appointments with Dr Overton, but three times the office called me shortly before my appointment to tell me that she needs to reschedule my appointment-no explanation. I am embarrassed that it has taken me this long to find another opthalmologist, but that is exactly what I have finally done. I would avoid this "practice". There are a lot of very good eye doctors in this area.
