Patient Reviews
Dec 08, 2021
I had a detached retina and macula in August/2021, and have nothing but great things to say about my experience with Dr Singer. He was more than accommodating in seeing me ASAP, and scheduling my surgery at the first opportunity. He did an excellent job in getting both my retina and macula reattached and a very good vision outcome. He explained things very well, answered my many questions, and was what I would have expected in someone trying to restore my vision.
