- Terri Baas12/09/2018This is a very impressive organization. The office is beautiful, staff attentive and helpful, seamless experience. I was having an issue over a holiday week-end, left a message and received a call directly from the doctor. He put me at ease and made room in the schedule for an appointment on the next working day.
He apologized that he was out of town and unable to see me immediately. He gave me a referral to an ER Doc in the event my condition worsened or my concern increased.
I am very impressed by his attentive caring, clear explanations and an encouraging set of next steps. Great "bedside" manner.
Highly recommended.read moreread lessBargain H.

6/11/2020I wanted to get a second opinion and Dr. Nadeem was the doctor who looked at my eyes for a post laser treatment for a small tear. He had excellent bedside manners and was incredible polite.

Dr. Vaidya is outstanding! His calm demeanor, patience and expertise put me at ease when he explained the treatment I needed for my detached retina and retinal tears and holes. When the day arrived for treatment, I was quite nervous as I went in, but I soon relaxed just by being in his presence. His level of professionalism is beyond measure.

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 lessJason Frenn10/05/2021Great doctor and great staff.read moreread less

- I wish I can give Dr. Nadeem ten stars ! I came in to see him earlier than my intended appointment day because I had a feeling that I should see him earlier based on my symptoms. The front desk was very nice to fit me in. Dr. Nadeem was so knowledgeable and kind. He was patient was all my questions and so considerate with my concerns. He wanted to run some blood work to be thorough and rule out any possible issues. I was so surprised when he called me after hours when he was told by the front desk that I had called about some test result and was worried. And although he was not in the office that day, he still called me to reassure me and explained the results. He was honest if there was something he wasn't sure of and suggested I speak with my other Doctor. This takes a both humble and confident physician to acknowledge. I'm so impressed and feel really lucky. Doctors are not God, even if some make you feel like they are. Dr. Nadeem has exemplary bedside manner and the medical knowledge that helps his patients like myself feel like they are in very good hands. Highly recommend!read moreread lessJessica D.4/19/2016
- Dr. Vaidya has such a warm and patient manner that he can actually make the uncomfortable experience of having your eyes dilated and examined relaxing! I'm normally very uncomfortable with anyone looking at, examining or poking at my eyes, but this was a breeze. And his entire staff is very professional and cheerful. I must thank Dr. Jeffrey Joseph for his excellent referral.read moreread lessKathleen M.11/12/2018
- I was having flashes in my right eye when I looked up. They were white, half moon flashes and I became very nervous. My wait was very short and the staff were so kind and welcoming. The moment I met Dr. Vaidya, I felt very comfortable. He is very kind and one of the top Doctors in the Country in this Field. He did a thorough exam and was very detailed and answered all my questions. I had a slight tear which was caused by the vitrious fluid pulling away from my retina. He performed laser surgery which was not painful at all. I just had my 1 year appointment and my small tear has healed beautifully. He would be my #1 choice for referring anyone who is looking for a top Opthamologist and retina specialist.read moreread lessPeter D.11/07/2018

- Go to Dr. Vaidya. He is thorough and makes an intelligent assessment of his patients. He patiently listened to my concerns (including the ones I had with my previous doctor) and devised a plan that worked for me the first time. I had terrible allergies but his expertise extends beyond that (something about macula care?). Ask him questions, he'll answer them. Present your concerns, he'll listen and understand themBonus: high-end check-in service and the ability to set up appointments online. All digital = Me like!read moreread lessJunaid M.11/14/2013

- 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.

- Dr. Vaidya is by far the best Retina specialist for us. He's been treating my mom for wet AMD for about 6 months now. My mom is doing much better. She was receiving injections in her eye monthly previously. Under Dr Vaidya's care we cut it down to 8 weeks this time. Next appointment is in 10. Also will like to add that his team is very professional, kind and welcoming. Just the way Dr. Vaidya is.read moreread lessSummeer M.10/05/2022
- All I can say is that Dr. Vaidya is the best. I had been dealing with an eye condition for several months and had gone to many eye doctors who couldn't diagnose me properly and were providing me with temporary solutions for my problem. Dr. Vaidya, on the the other hand, was a lifesaver. He patiently and thoroughly assessed my history, took the time to explain the problem, and was able to provide my eyes the treatment they so desperately needed! Dr. Vaidya has an easy manner with his patients. I tend to get very anxious around medical procedures, but Dr. Vaidya was able to help me relax with his calm voice and easygoing demeanor.Oh, and of course, it doesn't hurt that his office is so high-tech! I love the ipads at check-in. In short, Dr. Vaidya is by far the best opthamologist out there (and I have been to many!). Definitely check out his practice. You won't regret it!read moreread lessSadia C.11/20/2013
