I didn’t wait long to go back for my eye tests. Then when I got to the room Dr. Ambati came in within 5 minutes. Much faster than previous appointments.

Dr. Ambati showed great care with my eyes and took his time making his recommendation on the best procedure for my eyes. He was very transparent about his fees and recovery time and potential negative consequences. My first consultation was in July and the surgeries occurred in late January. He followed up days and weeks after surgery to make sure I had no complications.

Dr. Ambati was kind and personal. He took the time to answer my questions and he gave me plenty of time to ask questions. I did not feel like he was in a hurry to get to the next thing. He provided resources and his email if I have additional questions. The procedure was quick and painless. I am very happy with the results!
