Dr. Charkoudian is a superior doctor. . I have had retina surgery with him and the results have truly been extraordinary. He is kind, calm, reassuring and compassionate. He has made himself available to me personally 24/7 after surgery. Sometimes the wait time at his office can be long but that is because he spends time explaining a diagnosis and answers all questions. I would without a doubt recommend him to anyone seeking an extraordinary doctor.

Extremely knowledgeable, kind staff. I have Dr. Charkoudians phone number. He is always available, great bedside manner. Remembers family members when I have an appointment and is very decent man. The most important fact is that the Dr. is an excellent surgeon, repairing my detached retina and having my eyesight improve without losing one iota of sight. His background is A1 and I would not hesitate to recommend the doctor to anyone in need of his services. A1.

While vacationing on the shore with my family, I had a mishap and needed to see an ophthalmologist. From making the appointment with the office staff through the procedure to correct the issue, Dr. Charkoudian and his staff put me at ease with their professionalism, kindness and exceptional bedside manner. I arrived at the office extremely anxious and nervous and left knowing I had received expert care by a dedicated, compassionate professional. I would strongly recommend Dr. Charkoudian to anyone looking for an eye doctor. I only wish I lived close enough to have him as my regular Ophthalmologist!
