I felt confident that he would do well, mainly because he presents as confident.

Before my appointment, I called to get explanations and was happy with the detail they gave me. The process went well and people were cordial. I ended up having to book another appointment for my other eye. I was able to book it within the next two days.

Good

My experience is good. Waiting is bad too long. Due to Covid, too many patients in the middle waiting area although distancing and mask are observed.

Outstanding

I was having vision problems from cataracts surgery in 2014. Based upon my history, and tests unique, he was able to quickly identify the problem and a solution. Could not be happier with my experience.

A very good experience for my first visit.

Dr Patel was friendly and professional. I spent most of my time with a couple different technicians. He seemed to be busy going from patient to patient. The time spent with the Dr was a good experience even though it was short.
