How likely are you to recommend Dr. Florakis?
I highly recommend Dr. Florakis. He has been monitoring my cornea condition for years, Fuchs Dystrophy. It’s usually gets worse with time and mine did just that. The remedy is a partial transplant. A procedure that goes by the acronym DMEK. Why did I choose Dr. Florakis to do the surgery? He limits his practice to the cornea. He has years of experience. He takes a conservative approach to selecting cornea donor tissue and to his recovery protocol. He teaches - young doctors join him on his examinations to learn and he shares his knowledge at seminars and in publications. He is personable and alway takes time to answer my many questions. His staff is great - a special shout out to Kelly, a surgery coordinator. The surgery is with hands and tools. Mine was a success. At this writing, I am 4 weeks out from surgery and my vision in the surgery eye is much sharper and brighter. Time can improve that. Dr. Florakis has developed his own cornea surgery tool called the Florakis endothelial forceps. Now that’s dedication to the practice. He will be doing my other eye when the time comes.
