Dr. Reish was so absolutely amazing! In 2013 I was working in a flowerbed and something poked me in the eye and when I went to my local doctor, he said that my cornea was punctured and my eye was leaking optic fluid. I was told of I don't go to Alexandria asap to see a specialist, that I wouldn't be seeing anything. He referred me to Dr. Reish and I couldn't have had a better experience ...for the situation. He told me that he needed to insert glue to cover the hole, put a microscopic patch to cover it, and had to put a temporary contact lense to cover everything and protect it to heal. It was the most terrifying situation I've ever been in. But Dr. Reish made me as comfortable as possible, spoke kind words, was very meticulous, and made sure that I was ready.

For many years, I was bothered by the appearance of the extra skin above my upper eye lids. It made me look older and always appear tired. A friend of mine had a blepharoplasty performed by Dr. Reish and I was amazed with her results--it made her look so much younger and full of energy. I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Reish and I was very impressed with him. He has an incredible bedside manner. Her performed surgery on me I am thrilled with the results. I cannot even see a hint of a scar at all. Dr. Reish is an extremely talented surgeon and I highly recommend him.
