Patient Reviews
Nov 25, 2022
A few years ago, to get another opinion, I went to my wife’s ophthalmologist who told me I needed cataract surgery immediately and that his recommendation was a several thousand dollar special lens. Dr. Malamed told me that it would likely be years before I needed the surgery, if at all, and at that time certainly didn’t recommend that lens. As it turns out, there are apparently issues with that special lens, and I am guessing the doctors that recommended it at the time had a significant profit motive. Dr. Malamed is not like that. he’s calming, super talented and the outcome of my surgery speaks for itself.
