Patient Reviews
Feb 18, 2025
I had a detached retina surgery performed by Dr. Wald in January 2001 and my vision has been perfect with glasses since that time. I can’t thank Dr. Wald enough not only for his amazing work as a surgeon but for his relaxed yet confident personality which put me at ease during that time. I highly recommend Dr. Wald he is a great surgeon who also has a wonderful bed side manner. I can’t paise him or thank him enough.
