Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep the reviews trustworthy, honest & fair.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

I like Dr Nguyen a lot, but the office staff aren’t very pleasant (office manager!) . They tried to charge me $25 for my prescription so I can take it somewhere else to get filled. My insurance company had to call them and say - You bill us for services?? Now office manager says I can’t have my prescription to get filled outswhere until the insurance payments come in. I’ve never heard of such a thing! I reported to BBB.

My son had complications from eye surgery performed in Burlington. Even though he was not her patient, Dr. Nuyens treated him for many hours beyond office time. She remained in contact his surgeon though out the laser procedures. Dr. Nuyens saved my son's eye!
