Superb, as a diagnostician and as an eye surgeon. While in Recife for professional reasons, and…read moresuddenly experiencing serious visual disturbances, I had the good fortune to be treated by Dra. Arcoverde after I came to the emergency room at HOPE hospital. She detected the beginning of a serious retinal detachment and, via lengthy photocoagulation surgery, treated it, and stopped the egregious process. Today, nearly two years later, my eye specialists at home (in Israel) confirm that her treatment was first-rate, and there has indeed been no further deterioration. In addition, she took the time to explain everything, provide choices, and all in fluent English. I cannot imagine having better good fortune than to have been treated by this marvelous physician. - Jeffrey Gordon
