Dr. Juan Manuel Romero, MD

Outstanding Retina Specialist – Exceptional Skill and Compassion As a Referring Colleague and a patient As a Patient (Treated for Diabetic Macular Edema): When I was diagnosed with Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) in my right eye, I knew exactly how serious it could be for my career and daily life as a physician. As a doctor who performs surgery myself, I’m quite particular about who I trust with my own eyes. Dr. Juan Romero immediately stood out as the clear choice. He performed a thorough evaluation with advanced OCT imaging and recommended a series of intravitreal anti-VEGF injections. From the first injection onward, his technique was flawless—gentle, efficient, and virtually painless. He explained every step in detail, respecting my medical background while making sure I understood the rationale, risks, and What impressed me most was him caring demeanor. Even though I’m a physician, he treated me with the same warmth and respect she shows every patient. He was never rushed, always… took time to answer my questions, and I am incredibly grateful. Thanks to Dr. Romero’s expertise with DME management and injections, I can continue my surgical practice without visual compromise. He is, without question, the best retina specialist I have ever encountered—both as a colleague and as a patient. I recommend him without any hesitation to physicians and patients alike.

Dr. Romero is always sensitive to Claire’s special needs, takes his time, and is able to evaluate her vision. His technician Mary, in the Rockville Centre office, was especially patient as Claire is difficult to test.

Excellent doctor. He provides care to me and my 93 year old dad. Extremely thorough and very patient. Spends the time needed and listens to all our concerns. Would highly recommend!

As per mom who is getting eye injections since 2013, Dr Romero is very very gentle and takes time with the patient. He explains the progress of the eye and the treatment.

Dr. was very thorough. I would like a written report on this exam for me. Is that possible?

Extremely thorough and professional. Highly recommended

I’ve had my surgery in May and my visits were always comfortable and knowledgeable with Dr. Romero. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who has retinal problems.

Dr. Romero is very courteous and professional with his patients. He takes his time and does a thorough evaluation even with a special needs patient that may not be very cooperative. Highly recommend Dr. Romero!!
