Excellent examination and explanation by Doctor of the processes to come….
Very professional doctor and staff. My first visit and I am impressed.
Dr. Gilbert is very informative and explains everything in the process of handling my cataract's. Office personnel are friendly and efficient and it carries on to the surgery process and the great follow up of the doctor calling me the evening after my surgery to see how I was doing!

Very complete eye exam to check on my glaucoma. I was happy to learn my condition is stable and I just need to continue taking Latanoprost eye drops. The office is well organized and Dr. Gilbert is a careful physician who takes good care of his patients.
Dr. Gilbert is a total pro.

Very though and right on time. Answered all my questions in understandable replies
Warm competent professional
I had cataract surgery years ago by another doctor and she really messed my eye up!! After I found Dr. Gilbert, I was hesitant to have cataract surgery on my other eye but finally relented and he did the best job ever. Even with my bad eye, he improved my over all vision. I would recommend him highly!!
Love, Dr Gilbert ♥️♥️ he’s a great doctor.
Always the best care & concern!
Dr. Gilbert is a fantastic surgeon!!! he performed cataract surgery on my right eye, and it came out perfectly. I could see so much better than before. I would recommend him highly. also, his optometrist Michelle is fabulous as well.
My experience with Dr.Gilbert was great.

Dr. Gilbert is the best. Patient, friendly, knowledgeable. Discusses treatment options openly describing pluses and minuses and comes to a consensus. Why only 2 stars?? Wait time is out of control. 2 weeks ago, after waiting 45 minutes beyond my appointment time, I was told I’d have to wait another 30-40 minutes. I left. When my new appointment came, called to see if Dr. Gilbert was running late. They said 20 minutes late. So I arrived 15 minutes past my original appointment time. I still had to wait another HOUR!! Scheduling manager should be fired.
Dr. Gilbert has cared for my parents and me for many years. He is as skilled as he is knowledgeable. We all have benefited from his care and feel blessed to have found him.
Dr Gilbert is very good at answering all my questions about my upcoming cataract surgery

Very efficient staff and they were professional
Dr Gilbert and staff are excellent. They are guardians of my vision and I trust and respect their care.
I was recommended by a friend who had cataract surgery from Dr. Gilbert. I was not disappointed. He and his staff deserve more than five stars. I can see 20/20 out of both of my eyes now. What more is there to say? He knows what he is doing and has a good bedside manner too. Thank you Dr. Gilber!
