Patient Reviews
May 23, 2024
Very intelligent, polite, and kind. I had cataract removal surgery in both eyes, and the results have been spectacular. Dr. Trief’s physician assistant also did an exceptional job. No down time, pain, or swelling. The facilities at Weill Cornell—where my surgeries were performed—are perfect. I can’t imagine a better Opthalmologist anywhere in New York City!
