Dr. Nash was very caring, knew exactly what he was doing, and took good care of me. He explained each procedure in detail, and that I was likely at some point to have a need for cataract surgery surgery.

I've seen Dr. Nash off and on for 17 years. He is always current. Always professional. Extremely focused but doesn't railroad over you or your wishes. He takes time to explain and really listens. He cares and he's very good at his profession. I would trust him to do anything to my eyes.

Dr. Nash is very smart, very competent and very personable. He's the person you'll want to see if you have retina problems and you live in or near Seattle.

Dr. Nash is a HIGHLY detailed focused clinician. His team is able to anticipate is movements before he makes them. He is an excellent choice when looking for at Retinal Surgeon. My case was very non-standard since most of his patents are well over my age (31 years old). He did a very comprehensive exam and was able to pinpoint the problem and eloquently talk about the possible outcomes while showing great care for my wellbeing. His ability to backup his suggestion with data (that I verified to be 100% accurate) was great since we was just talking off the cuff. His field is a very demanding and requires prompt decisions and the ability to see and process patients quickly since time is limited. I would recommend him to my friends and family.
