I was treated for a cataract which was removed. That evening, I received a call from Dr. Leifer to find out just how I was feeling and doing. I really feel as a patient that I was his number one concern.

I had cataract surgery from Dr. Leifer which was surprisingly an awesome experience! I was so nervous going in but that was soon gone with how i was handled. Dr. Leifer is very personable, knowledgeable and patient. I can't wait to get my other eye done!

After visiting several eye dr.s in other locations, Dr Varkey took the time to hear me out, and come up with a plan. She was extremely detailed, and patient. I highly recommend Dr. Varkey, and her team.
