I saw Dr. Salvay for a glasses prescription and general eye exam. He was extremely professional and thorough. His office is beautiful and the staff were helpful. I would highly recommend Dr. Salvay.

I was referred to Dr. Salvay via my Hoag PCP for removal of a Chalazion. Dr. Salvay is an excellent physician! Clearly very great at what he does as well as very personable, very thorough and detail oriented. His staff is great, too. I was very fortunate that my PCP referred me out to see Dr. Salvay, I will surely return to him if I ever need to see an Ophthalmologist again.

He typically is good, but he will charge you for a missed appointment. I missed an appointment because of a family emergency and still got a missed appointment charge. Not sure what happened to him but I do not trust him to put my health before money going forward.

Dr. Salvay performed cataract surgery on both eyes and I now see better than ever before. Besides doing excellent surgery, Dr. Salvay took extra time to listen to my concerns and to make sure I had the best possible outcome. He and his office staff are warm, caring, and extremely competent. I highly recommend being his patient.

Dr. Salvay recently performed cataract surgeries on both of my eyes. In preparing for surgery, he was thorough in evaluating my eyes, and explained all of the options for IOLs and potential outcomes to me. He is a great listener! His approach during my visits and on the days of surgery was empathetic and warm; at no time did I feel anxious about my procedures. He truly wants the best for each of his patients.

I've been a patient of Dr. Salvay since he joined Dr. Wirta and I couldn't be more pleased. In addition to five stars, I would also give him five Cs: Caring, Committed, Competent, Conscientious and Congenial

I’ve had several appointments with Dr. Salvay and I’m very pleased with his competence and friendliness. He referred me to a specialist when he recognized I had a rare type of vascular macular degeneration...Dr. Norman, who cured me with one special laser session. Dr. Salvay took me right in when I had an eye emergency in my other eye. He knows my chart, always explains, and is always in a good mood. The staff is as friendly as can be. Highly recommend!

Dr. Salvay performed cataract surgery on both of my eyes a couple of months ago and what a fantastic job he did as I can see better than I have in decades! I could not be happier with the surgery, and the pre- and post-operative care provided, and I would highly recommend Dr. Salvay to anyone who needs an excellent eye doctor. And a special "Thank You" to all of the nice office and surgery center staff, too!
