I first had lasik 12 years ago with Dr Motwani and he did an excellent job - excellent staff, excellent knowledge and presentation of the procedure, and excellent follow up. Now 12 years later I am going back for a touch up because I’m now turning 50 and I rather not wearing reading glasses anymore - my distance correction 12 years ago was excellent and still is excellent- I look forward to Dr Motwani and I look forward to the results which I without a doubt know they will be great.

I had Lasik 3 times from this Dr. And never once did it fix my vision. He kept saying it's one thing or another. Nothing worked from him. He destroyed my eyes. My file there was over an inch thick. I finally stopped going. He wanted to do another lasik. My eye Dr now says my eyes are ruined. I feel for the hype that he was the best.

1st surgery was a fail, and attempt to correct made it worse. I can no longer see clearly. Eyes are too damaged to fix now. Sadly, I have seen countless doctors in recent years who have told me that I should never have gone to Motwani. Check his reputation with other doctors before you choose him. He will threaten legal action if you post a negative YELP review, so don't trust those reviews.

Dr, Motwani preformed Lisiks on me in 2005. Prior to my surgery I had problems seeing close up? Had to wear reading Glasses and had problems reading Freeway signs at Night. I left the office the day of my procedure and was amazed? I could see immediately after leaving His clinic. No Pain and the entire procedure took about 5 minutes. I would recommend him to anyone, He is truly passionate about getting the best results possible for his patients. I 'am 65 and would do it again if necessary.

I have had contacts over 28 years. I was very afraid to get the surgery afterall its your sight, but two of my girlfriends had had the surgery with Dr. Motwana and I went to him because of their great word of mouth. I am glad I did and now I keep recomending him to everyone. HE IS THE BEST IN TOWN>
