Rating in five different areas: 1. Overall competency of surgeon; 2. Dexterity (skill); 3. Care by staff during surgery; 4. Appointment experience (before and after); 5. Billing and fees. 1. Competency - Experienced and knowledgeable about his craft (1 point); 2. Dexterity - Go to a plastic surgeon or someone else as his eyelid "cuts" were noticeably uneven (0 points); 3. Care by staff during surgery - Production line in and out of the surge-center. I walked out literally dripping blood from my eye lids (0 points); 4. Appointment experience - Long, long wait times with EVERY appointment (-20 points if there was a choice however 0 points) 5. Billing and fees - Double charged for after-care consulting fee, with no interest by his office to rectify error

Dr. Tao performed corrective orbital and ocular facial surgery on both my eyes, and I could not be more thrilled at the results. I am 70 years old, and was very apprehensive prior to the procedures, but Dr. Tao's expertise, experience, and "bed side manner" were very reassuring. Dr. Jeremiah Tao is a brilliant ophthalmologist and a brilliant surgeon!

Dr. Tao performed a blepharoplasty on me and the results were amazing. I was unprepared for how much the procedure would improve my eyesight; everything is brighter and clearer. Dr. Tao was very caring and professional both during his extensive evaluation and the surgery itself. I healed very quickly with minimal discomfort.

Dr. TAO has such patience w me. Also, he's not only knowledgeable but also very personable. A rare find in a surgeon. I have been contemplating eye surgery for almost four years. I visited him many times before I decided to have the upper and lower blepharoplasty, cheek lisf, and dermabrasion. My surgery is scheduled early December. This time, I've made up my mind.
