Patient Reviews
Nov 14, 2019
Dr. Putterman did surgery on both of my eyelids which had drooped into my pupil. The information provided before the surgery was excellent. The actual surgery went without a hitch. The aftercare was also excellent. His office staff was wonderful. My questions were quickly answered. Now, four months after surgery, I am often complimented (even by strangers) on my "beautiful eyes." What a nice surprise! In addition, my peripheral vision has returned along with improvement in my general sight. I was somewhat nervous and reluctant going into this but I'm very pleased I had it done. Kudos and gratitude to Dr. Putterman. Thank you for a job well done!

Board Certifications
What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
