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.

Unprofessional
I went in because my eye had gone blind. I had a previous injury in the eye from when I was a child, which left me with blurry vision and central blindness in the eye. Recently, I was struck in the same eye by an object while mowing. He was basically calling me a liar and said my story didn't add up. Why I would lie about being blind, is beyond me. Luckily a Dr Angle was available to explain to me what had happened. I will be changing my insurance to PPO so, I will be able to go to another ophthalmologist for when my eye needs further work. He wasn't sympathetic at all, and literally added insult to injury.

Dr Burke’s is very knowledgeable in his field and skilled as a surgeon. He makes you feel at ease and explains all procedures prior to their performance. Dr Burke’s was recommended to me for cataract surgery by my retinal specialist Dr William Clark.
