Dr. Aldave is a mixed bag of clinical excellence, coupled with a warm demeanor, a great sense of humor, and he is beyond provisional trust. Wow, this guy is worth the wait and 2 hour drive. So far, the cornea transplant (DMEK) is healing great. This man cares deeply about this patients. I feel fortunate he took my case. His Fellows are great as well.

Dr. Aldave is not only knowledgeable, but personable and articulate. He has provided excellent, professional care for my 16 year old daughter after a trauma that injured her eye. He explained what he was seeing during the exam, what steps he planned to take and what a corneal transplant entailed. He was also rigorous in his follow-ups and post-op care. I recommend him highly.

Dr. Aldave is an excellent Doctor . I couldn't be happier. I have been a patient of his since 2011. I have had the best care Not only is he a great doctor but also a great human being. It is very hard to find both in the same person. I never feel like I'm just a file number, I had a cornea transplant last year and he did a brilliant job. I actually live in NY but go to LA often just for follow up appointments with him I couldn't recommend him more. Excellent !

MY EXPERIENCE AT THE JULES STEIN EYE CLINIC WAS A GREAT EXPERIENCE, TO BE TENDED TO BY A WORLD FAMOUS EYE SPECIALIST WAS A NEW EXPERIENCE AND SO WORTH THE TRIP FROM WHITTIER TO WESTWOOD, THE PEACE OF MIND ONE GLEANS FROM A VISIT TO A REKNOWN EYE SPECIALIST CANNOT BE MEASURED BY THE AMOUNT YOU PAY, AFTER ALL CAN YOU REALLY PUT A PRICE ON YOUR VISION ? THE JOB DR. ALDAVE DOES IS INCREDIBLY THOROUGH AND ELAYS ANY FEAR YOU MIGHT HAVE ABOUT YOUR VISION WHEN YOU EXIT THE BUILDING. PEACE OF MIND CARRIES NO PRICE TAG, I'M SO GLAD DR. ALDAVE GRACIOUSLY ACCEPTED MY CASE AND NOW I AM ONE OF HIS PATIENTS FOR LIFE.
