I have o ly good things to say about Dr Raviv.
Dr. Raviv was fabulous! I had cataract surgery on my OGE "Only Good Eye." He made sure I understood everything. The staff at the surgery center was great and made me feel safe and comfortable. I am blind in one eye and with the cataract on my good eye I couldn't read the computer, street signs or signs at the train station. My independence was gone! I am so happy with the results of my laser, cataract surgery.
I couldn't be happier with the results of my cataract surgery. The entire team was professional, caring, and dedicated to ensuring a positive outcome. My vision is now crystal clear, and I am grateful for the exceptional care provided.
