On appropriate occasions, I will comment about a remarkable employee or product from which I received assistance or found exceptional. I am writing today to tell you of the incredibly professional and outstanding service I received from your retina OC staff. The receptionist arranged for me to see Dr. Nadeem N. Vaidya, MD, Vitreoretinal Surgeon at Retina OC, on very short notice the same day. The technician was kind, helpful, and efficient, which was appreciated as I could see Dr. Vaidya soonest. This last occasion to see Dr. Vaidyawas regarding a sudden loss of eyesight in my left eye. I had previously been a patient of the doctor for a detached retina. Let me say on both occasions, I was, in short, terrified that I might lose my vision. On both occasions, Dr. Vaiday was incredibly calming and extraordinarily knowledgeable and spoke in a positive/confident manner to say, "we can fix this " and he did so on both occasions. I can't say enough about this excellent doctor; he is kind… and will take as much time with you as you need.

I’ve seen Dr Vaidya twice for retinal issues, he instills confidence and calms you down at the same time. Easygoing and charming. Not a bad combination.
