I have been a patient of Dr. Hammad for several years now, having had Detached Retinas in the Right Eye, and Torn Retina in the left Eye. He has come to my rescue both on a Saturday and Sunday. Very professional, and does a wonderful job, I would give him 6 star rating, of a 5 star review. He is the master!

I am forever in Dr. Hammad's debt. He answered a call to leave his home on the weekend to treat me, a stranger, on an emergency basis; and saved the sight of my right eye. Since that day, I have found his practice to be of the highest order. I am proud to recommend him.

I was referred to Dr. Hammad by an Ophthalmologist who diagnosed me with a Retinal Detachment while traveling in NY. Not knowing anything about the physicians or hospitals in the area I was in, I feel very blessed that I was in the right place at the right time. Dr. Hammad took me in as an Emergency Patient and gave me excellent care. I had my Retinal Surgery done at Glens Falls Hospital and was very pleased with Dr. Hammad and his surgical team. I received excellent care from both. He has an excellent office staff that take very good care of his patients and I feel that the patient's welfare is always of top concern to them.

I felt completely relaxed while I was in Dr. Hammad's office. Everyone I came in contact with was pleasant and took their time with me. I will not hesitate to return to Dr. Hammad in the future.
