Dr. Omar F Almallah, MD

VERY HAPPY WITH THE WHOLE STAFF& THE PROCEDURE & FOLLOW UP LOOKING FORWARD TO MY NEXT PROCEDURE. THANK YOU

An overall positive experience with the Doctor and Kim.

Excellent explanations of eye structure and upcoming cataract procedure. Listens well and answers all questions and concerns.

I had a cataract removed on Jan 6, 2025. I can’t believe how smooth the procedure went from pre op to post op. Dr Almallah is now my go to eye dr/surgeon. All his staff is also so very accommodating and kind.

I had a very disappointing experience with Dr. Omar Almallah at SiteMD in Toms River, NJ. My first visit went extremely well and Dr. Almallah seemed pleasant. I originally came in because of a persistent floater. During that visit, I was told I had a cataract and that surgery should be scheduled. I completed all required pre-surgery clearances and was scheduled for surgery the following week. At my pre-surgery appointment for premium IOL measurements, I asked whether the cataract surgery would also address the floater—the reason for my initial visit. The staff was excellent and told me the doctor would come in to discuss it. When Dr. Almallah entered, the experience changed immediately. He became visibly irritated the moment I asked about the floater. His exact tone was, “Is it your cataract or the floater we’re talking about? You’re all over the place.” I explained that I never knew I had a cataract until he told me, and that my question was simply whether the cataract surgery would… help with the floater. His answer was essentially no, and that it would “eventually move out of my vision.” When I asked why he was getting upset over basic questions, he responded by telling me he has performed over 45,000 cataract surgeries and that I could see another doctor if I wanted or go Google it! At that point, I told him I was no longer comfortable proceeding and would be cancelling the surgery. My wife and I were genuinely stunned by his behavior. We returned to the finance office to request a refund of my $4,150 out-of-pocket payment for the premium IOL. The refund was processed immediately without any issue. I want to be clear: the staff and office team were outstanding—professional, courteous, and understanding. My concern is solely with Dr. Almallah’s attitude and conduct during what should have been a routine conversation about my care. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend Dr. Almallah.

The staff and the doctor were exceptional surgery center nurses made you feel very comfortable. Thank you guys.

Great Dr polite

I have had an excellent experience with Dr. Almallah and his staff. My sight is so much better. Everyone there put my mind at ease and answered all my questions before and after my procedure. I can't thank you enough.
