Reviews and Ratings Are Not Enough

Most people rely on word of mouth, such as referrals from an optometrist or recommendations from family, friends and colleagues, when looking for a retina specialist.

Online rating and review sites can help you make an informed choice, but should not be your only source of information. It is relatively simple to know whether a coffeemaker, a hotel, or a plumber is good or bad, but doctors are another matter.

Review sites may provide useful information, but many contain highly subjective, emotional opinions that won’t necessarily give you a reliable picture of a surgeon’s or retina specialist’s capabilities.

  • Online reviews and ratings are anonymous and unverified.
  • Ratings are primarily based on opinion rather than actual data that accurately reflects a doctor’s treatment or care.
  • Some “Top Doctors” websites are misleading because they list only those doctors who paid a substantial fee to be listed.
  • Some doctors (and other types of businesses) pay people to write fake reviews or give discounts for good reviews.
