Comfortable experience

Dr Murphy has been taking care of our family for over 20 years now. The office experience has always been excellent. Dr Murphy has done our cataracts and the result 12 years later is
still excellent. Highly recommend Dr. Murphy and staff.

everything went very smoothly

Initially there was a change in the site where my surgery was to be. This was confusing to me. But in the end, this really didn't matter. Everyone was welcoming and quickly put me at ease. The surgery itself was easy and I didn't have any discomfort afterwards. THe chart on how to use the drops after surgery make that aspect easy too. Right away after surgery, my distance vision was better and the world seemed brighter! I've had some struggle to figure out which glasses to use -- but quickly settled into using readers for reading and not wearing glasses to drive or doing most other things. I'm eager to get my other eye taken care of in a couple of weeks. Dr. Murphy has seen me twice after surgery and all is good.

she's the best

I was recommended to her a long time ago for an eye issue. She's now seen me through an emergency detached retina and now cataract surgery (she did the cataract surgery). That latter surgery turned out to be trivial and wonderful. I cannot imagine a better eye doctor.

excellent result; excellent service

Had cataracts removed from both eyes; right eye complicated. Dr. Murphy put me at ease by taking the time to explain the problems I was facing and by personally tailoring the whole gamut of preop, operative and post op experiences. I have been seeing her for many years and have complete confidence in her.

Awesome experience!

Was born with congential cataracts. Dr.Murphy was the first doctor who ever brought up the idea of cataract surgery. It has been a life changer! I can see so much better. I can read again. I The surgery was quick for each eye and I wouldn't change a thing! Dr. Murphy is very personable and spends the time with you to explain the complex workings of the eye.

technically adept and very patient oriented

The diagnosis was fully explained and options for treatment were presented. I decided to proceed with surgery and couldn't be happier with the process and outcome.

right +left eye cataract surgery

I felt right away confident with Dr Murphy and don't know how to thank her for restoring my vision:colors are now more intense, black is more black, shapes are sharper.
My whole experience was far better than what I had heard from others and expected for myself: very friendly stuff, both at the office and the surgery center. I feel very lucky to meet Dr Murphy: she listened and answered clearly to all questions, made these surgeries as comfortable as possible , in one world she changed my life.

ROCK STAR EYE DOCTOR!

Dr. Murphy is an amazing ophthalmologist! She is a ROCK STAR!

I had such a great experience with her and her office staff. Very friendly environment.

On the day of my surgery, I felt really confident and excited because I knew I will get my vision back. The result is AMAZING! I have my 20/20 vision again!

I'm so glad that my mother-in-law referred Dr. Murphy! You don't really want to go to the place that you don't know especially for your eyes!

I totally recommend Dr. Murphy to everybody that needs cataract surgery or any eye concern. She is a ROCK STAR!
