Great practice with compassionate care and understanding. The doctor spent time with me and explained everything to me.

Five Stars My experience with Dr. Vaidya was wonderful! His manner was warm and caring and I really appreciate the amount of time he took to explain fully my condition.

I'm SO thankful I got a second opinion and saw Dr. Nadeen Vaidya. He was able to find a medium size hole in my left retina even though I was just told by another retina specialist that I had nothing wrong with my eyes. HIGHLY recommend this doctor. He's very kind and patient. I really appreciated that he took the time to really understand what's been going on with my eyes.

Thank you to Dr. Vaidya and his staff for a 5-star appointment. He is an extremely patient, kind, caring, and thorough practitioner. Dr. Vaidya is among the best listeners of any physician, regardless of specialty. He carefully explains answers to questions without rushing, and in a down-to-earth, understandable manner. He earns the highest recommendation possible.

Excellent Doctor and high tech office. The Doctor was thorough and explained things clearly.

Very professional office and a super nice staff. Dr was very gentle with my eye and explained everything perfectly. Highly recommend

Dr Vadiya is hands down awesome. He's super knowledgeable and thorough.. He's genuine and sincere..My whole family comes here.

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!

Excellent doctor.

April 20th, 2021 Great bedside Manner and knowledgeable. Has been well-trained.

January 12th, 2011 My experience with Dr. Vaidya was wonderful! His manner was warm and caring and I really appreciate the amount of time he took to explain fully my condition.

Always such a pleasure to see Dr. Vaidya for my yearly exams! Dr. V is kind, caring, professional,, knowledgeable and very honest. In fact, after my appointment today, he told me that I am doing so well, that I can probably see him every other year! Such a great doctor!!

May 6th, 2018 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. Thank you doctor.

Outstanding experience. Excellent outcome! Dr. Vaidya is the best!

Dr Vaidya is the best. He saved my eye sight. He’s very nice, gentle and explains in details what’s going on with your eyes. Thank you so much doctor for taking good care of my eyes!

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.

Dr. Vaidya is the absolute best ophthalmologist!!! He is smart, kind and has the kind of bed side manner that all physicians should emulate. Thank goodness for yelp reviews on Dr. Vaidya. I was looking for a retinal specialist and after reading the positive reviews, I decided to make the call for an appointment. Going to an ophthalmologist can be terrifying because these are a vital part of your senses. I was experiencing symptoms that were certainly worrisome but after spending time with Dr. Vaidya, I felt that I was in good hands. Bad news is bad no matter what, but who delivers it by how they do it is crucial to patient compliance and healing. Doctors forget that their patients are scared and don't have the medical knowledge to digest the complexity of their health issues. For these reasons, being in the care of a physician like Dr. Vaidya has been a Godsend. He doesn't make you feel rushed, you leave his office feeling cared about because he addresses all your questions and concerns. And when I had an emergency on two separate weekends, I had to call and was surprised to have Dr. Vaidya return my call with the same care he shows during his office hours. I've had personal experience and have known others who have been scolded or rudely treated by doctors because it was on a weekend. I always feel terrible and hesitant to inconvenience anyone let alone a busy doctor on a weekend, but your body doesn't discriminate weekdays and weekends. Without going on and on about how wonderful this doctor is...I'll just say please do yourself a favor if you need a retinal specialist and go see Dr. Vaidya.

January 14th, 2023 On appropriate occasions, I will comment about a remarkable employee or product from which I received assistance or found exceptional. I am writing today to tell you of the incredibly professional and outstanding service I received from your retina OC staff. The receptionist arranged for me to see Dr. Nadeem N. Vaidya, MD, Vitreoretinal Surgeon at Retina OC, on very short notice the same day. The technician was kind, helpful, and efficient, which was appreciated as I could see Dr. Vaidya soonest. This last occasion to see Dr. Vaidyawas regarding a sudden loss of eyesight in my left eye. 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. I can't say enough about this excellent doctor; he is kind and will take as much time with you as you need.

Five Stars Excellent doctor.

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. Thank you, Dr. Vadiya, for providing me – and by extension, my family – with such great care.

Eye Surgery The surgeon and entire staff were caring throughout the procedure.

An Outstanding eye specialist ! So pleased with his overview and total information! Highly recommend!

I almost never write reviews but this time I really felt compelled to give my feedback to the community. Dr. Nadeem Vaidya is a rear gem in the modern world of high speed and high volume healthcare. We met when my wife had a very scary experience with a serious ophthalmology problem and Dr. Vaidya was able to provide her with absolutely best possible treatment! Not only he is an amazing and highly talented retina specialist, but he is also a caring human being whom you trust completely starting from the moment he enters the room. It was very easy to schedule an appointment, reach out to him with all kind of questions, etc. We never felt rushed or neglected, on the contrary he made it his priority to accommodate all her needs. He was patient in answering questions, explaining things and making sure that the message came across. He performed a procedure with great skills. All in all, Dr. Nadeem Vaidya is truly a Doctor with a capital D whom I would be honored to recommend to anyone. Thank you!

Came 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.

Dr Vaidya I’ve seen Dr Vaidya twice for retinal issues, he instills confidence and calms you down at the same time. Easygoing and charming. Not a bad combination.

Dr Vaidya and his team are amazing. He is , brilliant, professional and extremely courteous. My 90 year oldMum and I felt like we were in the best hands

Most Advanced Just like what it says in their webpage "most advanced" is actually true!!! I ruly believe they have the most advanced equipments.

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.

Great doctor and great staff.

Doctor Vaidya is fantastic! He checked my eyes thoroughly and explained all the details with patience, and gave me the possible solutions. highly recommend!

First class experience.Friendly staff. Complete and thorough examination. Very nice doctor.

My husband needed a retina specialist while staying in our Irvine house. We are Florida are residents who travel to our second home. Dr. Vaida's office was extremely clean and the staff was very helpful. We would highly recommend Dr. Vaida to patients looking fora retina specialist.

The ladies infront and the drs assistant were all very nice .The doctor himself is great ! ?

Just loved the experience. From scheduling to the doctor visit was excellent. I had to get an urgent appointment and the scheduler was very understanding and fitted me into the schedule. The doctor was very understanding and took his time in explaining the situation. Highly recommended.

Just a great experience Dr. Vaidya was fantastic. The office was clean and modern and the staff was professional, knowledgeable, attentive and caring. I was referred with a serious problem and Dr. Vaidya and his team took the time to make the correct diagnosis (others had missed it) and start me on the right treatment. I'm starting to see better.

Compliments and thanks to Dr. Vaidya and his team Dr. Vaidya is knowledgeable, professional, gentle and took time to explain the results of my examination which made me feel confident that I was blessed to be his patient. I highly recommend Dr. Vaidya and his team.

Five Stars Dr. Vaidya treated my mother at his Staten Island office. She was very happy with the care she received from him and has made him her regular ophthalmologist. She was especially happy at how fast should could get an appointment with him as she would wait 1-2 months for an appt with her previous eye doc. A great physician for anyone looking for a eye doc in the area, great demeanour and very meticulous.

I would highly recommend Dr. Vaidya at RetinaOC. He's very easy to talk to and really takes the time to explain your eye issue to you, as well as your treatment options. His office is very modern and clean, and his staff is warm and friendly.

Have been seeing the Dr Vaidyq for over 3 years. He has been extremely detailed in his examination and in explaining his diagnosis. Excellent office environment and ease of making appointments

Dr. Vaidya is an amazing retinal specialist. He is kind, caring and detailed with his diagnosis and with his surgeries. My wife works for Dr. Vaidya several days a week and she has had nothing but good things to say about him. As a husband...it is absolutely essential to me that my wife is treated well. She was not treated well at her previous employer so the last few years with Dr. Vaidya have been a huge blessing. Having my wife come home tired but happy is a HUGE & welcomed change from her old job, where she would often be emotionally distraught & completely exhausted. Dr. Vaidya treats her with respect and kindness like a valued part of the team. It means the world to me because good men, like Dr. Vaidya, who are exceptional at their work and treat people well... are hard to find nowadays. The OC Carpet & Rug Specialist is proud to give Dr. Vaidya & Retina OC our highest recommendation possible!
