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.

Very unpleasant experience
Staff was friendly and helpful. However, Dr. Krasinsky was not. He barely spoke to me, and he did not provide good explanations for the procedures that he proposed. My eyes are currently in worse shape that when I first saw him, but I will not go back to him. I will have to find a new doctor in hope of getting better results.

Will not go back
Kept me coming back week after week for a condition that did not necessitate such frequent visits (Sty). Scheduled many tests including one for determining progression of macular degeneration. Went back to my former eye doctor in another town and he said I had NO macular degeneration.

Tear Ducks
He is very knowledgeable and explained the procedure and how it works. The staff was very efficient. I have been going here for about 7 years. Dr. Krasinsky is very professional, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. His staff and him, are like one big happy family, I always feel relaxed when I visit his office.

I have been a patient of Dr Krasinsky’s for regular exams, and also for an urgent problem with my eyes. I am so glad to have a doctor that is professional yet caring and up to date with current medical practice. I also appreciate the kindness that his office staff shows to me.

While it's a little further to go, my wife and I both are patients of Dr. Krasinsky. We're much more comfortable there than seeing our previous provider. Office staff is wonderful (that's a bonus!), equipment is up to date, the doctor takes the time to explain what it is you need to know. So yes, highly recommended.

Dr. Krasinsky is a doctor that always listens and truly cares. I went in for an eye exam for contacts and he ended up spending almost an hour with me because he found complications from a recent head trauma that no one else seemed to care about or notice. Excellent physician!!!
