I have been a patient of Dr. Goli for 2 years, he has been nothing short of fantastic. He always has the right solution to any problem and gets it corrected ASAP. If you haven’t had your vision checked or repaired by this Dr. then you may not getting the best care.

While sitting in the reception room for Dr. Goli several of us were talking, one man called him a miracle worker, he had lupus and hadn't been able to see clearly for years, thus surgery and now could see. I myself had laser surgery to lower the blood pressure in my eyes. I never knew I had a problem until I went for a regular eye checkup. Terrific Doctor very caring and knowledgeable.

I was a referral from my internal doctor and Dr Goli saw me that day. Being in the health care profession myself I felt that he was very thorough and listened to what I had to say. He was down to earth and very compassionate and caring. I would recommend highly.

Dr. Goli saw my son as a patient. He talked to me like I was an idiot and was very condescending. He spoke in medical terms I could not understand and refused to explain to me what his diagnosis was so that I could understand. I honestly think he couldn't diagnose him.
