Fabulous operation. It is so stellar that I am telling all my friends. 100% top service and attitude
Dr Omar was patient, and knowledgeable. He listened to my concerns and addressed each One. Never rushed.
What a wonderful experience. I was able to get a new pay appointment right away. The office is absolutely beautiful. The staff were so good I cannot say enough. Stephanie at the desk along with the others at the desowere so helpful. Serano was the tech I saw first. He was the nicest person. He actually welcomed me with a handshake. Put me completely at ease. Quickydid all my tests then Dr Perdomo was so great. He put all my fears to rest. I can do all my regular eye exams and they do all my retina treatments too. I am so happy to have found them.
Loved this practice. On time, efficient, and Dr. Shakir was excellent. And, the offices are beautiful!
