Dr. Sami has exceptional bedside manner and is careful, accurate and considerate in her discussion of information and findings. She’s super personable, very knowledgeable, and skilled not only in her specialty but in identifying issues that overlap with other specialties. Highly recommend her.

I saw Dr. Sami only once, but all parameters were five star. She removed skin tags from my eyelids. Outcome was perfect and painless. Service was professional and friendly. JDB

Not only were we given the wrong address to the surgery, on follow up, Dr. Sami scolded my mother for not using the postop antibiotic and said the pharmacy was supposed to call her--they never did.

Had surgery done on both eyes by Dr. Sami and her staff. I was overcharged $500 by office clerk/assistant who claimed I had cancelled appointment when in fact she never contacted me for surgery date. Beware of these scam artists - very unprofessional, scheming and take advantage of elderly. I won't ever be back - even for the follow-up! The whole staff avoided talking to me about the overcharge - it wasn't their first rodeo - BEWARE!

DR. MIRWAT SAMI IS A VERY TALENTED OCULOFACIAL SURGEN. SHE PERFORMED A MIRACLE ON MY EYES AND BAGS. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER FOR A PERFECT SURGERY. AND HER STAFF IS THE BEST IN THE AREA.
