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.

Excellent results. Good overall experience. Great pricing.

I was nervous at first but after the consultation I was a lot more confident. Doctor Columbus patiently explained everything and answered all of my questions. He even show me the room the laser was in before hand. It’s great that I know that he care about post op recovery as well due to all of the following check ups. The emergency call numbers and how he said I can call at any time of the day was comforting.

The surgeon is not the most personable, but his knowledge and experience made me choose him to do my LASIK surgery. They have the newest technology, and I am very happy with my results. I have not been able to see this well since I was 13 years old.

Dr. Columbus made my decision to receive Lasik a very informed one. He explained everything that occurs during and after the surgery, and he includes several follow up appointments to make sure the healing process is going well. I've referred all my friends who have expressed interest in getting Lasik to Dr. Columbus.
