Patient Testimonials and Comments

21-year-old patient on Crystalens —

“I had to wear my glasses to put toothpaste on my toothbrush and I couldn’t see my dogs, Black Jack and Sammie, my friends, or even colors very well. After Dr. Schechter implanted Crystalens in my eyes, I could see everything – my friends, my dogs, colors. Green is my favorite! I will never have to wear glasses again."

A very happy mom —

“Dr. Friedman and staff, I cannot express in words how much your experience, professionalism and careful hands mean to me and my family. You gave my daughter the precious gift of sight. I truly do not know how to thank you enough.”

Referring to Dr. Katz’s eyesight-saving surgery on a family’s beloved pet —

"How nice it was to hear of your kindness of helping that sweet dog.  You are a good man." (See FOX News segment below.)

Cataract surgery patient —

“Dr. Schechter, hands down you’re the best! Only three days post surgery on my left cataract and I’m seeing beautifully. I’m so happy (but, my heavens, this apartment is very dusty – didn’t notice it before!!!) Thank you very much and to your very kind staff, also.”

Eye surgery patient —

“Becky and Dr. Friedman, thank you so much for taking care of my son. His eye looks terrific. Also thank Becky for taking the time to assist me with my insurance to get us the best possible price.  We truly appreciate your efforts.”

Eye care patient —

“Dr. Katz, we appreciate your kindness and concern for the special treatment you gave us.  You are a unique doctor and human being.  Thanks so much!”

Holiday donations —

“Dr. Friedman and staff, we would all just like to thank you very much for donating to families in need this holiday season.  What you contributed made a difference in someone’s life who really needed it.”

Applause for the staff —

“I write to express my appreciation and bring to your attention the professionalism, patience and kindness of Chantel, a person who returned my call regarding a bill I received. She not only called my insurance company but she also phoned me after she learned they admitted to an error. I believe her actions went beyond professionalism and that they were competent, kind and courteous.”

Cataract surgery patient —
