I don't have to wear glasses anymore except for reading. I put that in the win column. He keeps you informed every step of the process.

Dr. Mehta practices at the Jerry Pettis VA Hospital. I was assigned to him for Cataract Surgery. The procedure was completely explained by him and the staff there (they are all so nice). Just prior to the surgery Dr. Mehta came to me in the pre-op area and just talked me down. I was very worried, he was going to cut my eye! My procedure was a bit more complicated than most, it took about 40 minutes as opposed to the normal 20-30. I have had both eyes done and am now 20/20 in both eyes.

No bedside manner or actual concern for patients. Has no idea why you’re there or what’s going on. Do not recommend.

Was seen by Dr. Mehta in Dec 2017 for surgery in my rt eye and was so pleased by the results that I had my left eye done in Feb of this year. Very fast and painless. Now I have 20/20 vision in both eyes. What a pleasure to watch everything in high definition! Thanks Dr. Mehta
