- Alisa A.11/17/2016Came to Dr. Vaidya because I had an eye issue that needed urgent attention and couldn't get an appt. at the other opthamologist in Newport that everyone says is the best. Dr. Vaidya is absolutely amazing. Thorough, great bedside manner, kind and explains everything is detail. So glad I found him. You will not be disappointed.read moreread lessSelf-verified patient of Dr. Nadeem N Vaidya5/06/2018Five Stars Outstanding! Dr. Vaidya is truly a wonderful, caring, professional, knowledgeable and attentive doctor! He is in a class all by himself. His staff is friendly, courteous and caring. The office is very clean and organized. My appointment was on time and the check in process was very easy. At no time did I ever feel rushed during any part of my visit. Dr. Vaidya went out of his way to ensure I felt comfortable (absolutely wonderful bedside manners) throughout the examination process. He took the time to answer all my questions, he reviewed my records and gave me a complete explanation/diagnosis of my condition and subsequently performed a flawless, successful surgery right afterwards. Dr. Vaidya is one of those special doctors you rarely encounter throughout ones lifetime. I have been seen by many and I must say he is at the top of the list.

I felt like a part on an assembly line. Appointments lasted almost half a day while I waited with continuous dilation to finally see the doctors. They could have received much more income if they opened a restaurant inside the office. And the staff was immune to any inquiry about wait times and schedule problems. Zombies would be a more appropriate term than staff.
When i finally became disgusted and decided to jump off the assembly line of care I was receiving, I found Dr. Vaidya. What a difference in terms of treatment and respect. Get off the assembly line and schedule an appointment. You will be pleased.

- The best of the best, they are on time, very professional and very friendly. I have my macular inspection done 4 years ago and this time around they have all the record on the ipad. We could see any difference on both eyes quickly. The equipment is very advance and new. 30 mins, they performed OCT, retina pictures and human inspection of my retina. I loved it.

- 5 Stars! We are happy and grateful to have found Dr. Vadiya. He is an exceptional Retina Specialist. I have been seeing him for approximately two years for a challenging condition. He has done a great job assessing, treating and monitoring the condition to keep it under control. He is very thorough, with excellent “chair-side” manner, and he doesn’t hesitate to spend the time answering our extra questions. In addition to epitomizing medical professionalism, he is also a genuinely kind man. And his office staff reflects his demeanor – they are always a pleasure to work with.

I had previously been a patient of the doctor for a detached retina. Let me say on both occasions, I was, in short, terrified that I might lose my vision. On both occasions, Dr. Vaiday was incredibly calming and extraordinarily knowledgeable and spoke in a positive/confident manner to say, "we can fix this " and he did so on both occasions.

He spent an incredible amount of time with me. His office and equipment are spotlessly clean. I felt very reassured after my exam.

- Dr. Vaidya recently treated me for a retinal tear. I've had perfect vision all my life so I was terrified to think that I could have a potentially blinding condition. He was extremely understanding of my fears/hesitations in making a decision regarding my treatment options. After all the time he spent explaining my options I felt confident in receiving laser treatment from him. 6 months later the tear is still sealed and I follow up with him regularly. I fully recommend him for anyone looking for a good retinal specialist.read moreread lessRateMDs Reviewer1/12/2011
