Better than expected

I was referred for treatment of narrow angle glaucoma. Scheduling and new patient set-up was easy and efficient; very friendly and helpful staff. Had to reschedule last minute due to Covid, staff was very accommodating to get me back in quickly. Office is very busy, but runs on time; well staffed with very good technicians. They’re very aware of nerves and take great care. Dr. Patel is the best! Wonderful demeanor, took time to explain and answer questions; not only with me, observed him providing same for other patients. Needed iridotomy in both eyes, which was done same day. A little unnerving, but relatively painless. I am a patient for life!

Very professional and felt very comfortable and assured of diagnosis

I was very impressed with every employee that interacted with me beginning with the receptionist upon my arrival. Each of them gave me an explanation what they were doing, kept the process moving smoothly going from one test to the next and giving me an explanation of what was being done. Dr Shamil Patel was very professional explaining the procedure very clearly. Before I left, another appointment was made to continue with the advised course of treatment and emails were sent to confirm and remind me of the coming appointment. All the staff with whom I interacted, were professional, courteous and attentive to my questions and concerns

Best In Class

I feel very fortunate to have Dr. Patel as my surgeon. Everything went well with my pre-op, surgery and post-op care. He was highly referred by my Ophthalmologist.

Dr. Patel explained the ab interno canalaplasty procedure in an easy to understand manner and answered all my questions.

Thank you!
