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.

I saw him for an emergency appointment. He was easy to talk to and answered all my questions

Dr Benedict did removal of retinal scar tissue. Vision in that eye is still fair to good, but the improvement was astounding. It was every bit as awesome as my cataract removals. No surprises or unexpected occurrences. Estimated time for surgery was an hour and actually was done in less than 15 minutes.

I found Dr Benedict very personable and easy to talk to. The exam was very thorough and he was willing to answer my questions about the results. Also good is that the first treatment plan is not surgery. Although he did give me that option. The staff there is superb! Friendly and helpful.

The visit went well. I had a new issue that the doctor discovered. He double checked what kind of issue it was and then treated it immediately. He was thorough in explaining what needed to be done and the options. I believe he is the best doctor to keep me from losing my sight.

Having had a vitreous detachment event, Dr. Benedict followed up at a week and a month after. He was thorough, listened to concerns and explained in detail the potential issues and post-event prognosis for the main concern of retinal detachment. This helped me understand what to expect and that my care was in good hands.

Quick response (the next day) to my portal message to Dr. Sheth about eye problems in one eye she had done cataract surgery on. Thorough exam by technicians & Dr. Benedict. He reassured me that there was no retinal damage and that the residual blurriness can be fixed by a brief laser procedure after several post-op months. This is a significant relief.

I have been treated by Dr. Benedict for at least 4 years with shots of Eylea in both eyes. Dr. Benedict and his staff put me at ease from the first treatment. The whole team is fabulous. You really have to have trust and faith in someone who is putting a needle near your eyes. Thank you for helping to save my eyesight!
