Patient Reviews
Jul 12, 2022
Best experience at an eye doctor's office ever! Have been to other retina specialist's offices several times over the past several years. Always feel like I'm in an assembly line for care. Staff has been cold and the doctor indifferent at best. By contrast, Dr. Amin and her staff are warm, friendly, polite, efficient and beyond competent. From the person at the desk, to the staff that dilated me, took pictures or assisted the doctor, I felt welcomed and cared for. Dr. Amin clearly sets the tone for the office as she is so personable. She is very knowledgeable, extremely compassionate and a great communicator. HIghly recommended.
