Best place to get lasik done. Sad to see it close. They had the best, most hospitable staff. Everyone was kind and they truly took their time to listen and address all concerns. Was looking to continue to recommend them to others but just saw they have closed their doors. read more

Dr Mandel was the Best.thorough exams, the also worked great. I was told they are now closed , I wish Dr Mandel all the best

Cant speak highly enough of Dr. Mandel and everyone who works at his practice. They heard all of my concerns and put me at ease. I did the Lasik procedure and it went as smooth as it possibly could. So grateful to Dr. Mandel and Kim! I walked out with even better than 20/20 vision and feel more confident than ever! read more

I'm not big on leaving reviews but this one is totally worth it! I've wanted lasik for years but put it off (part because of money and part because fear over the procedure) but decided to check our Yelp reviews to see what is out there and found Mandel Vision. I was able to book the free consultation with ease and got to meet his totally awesome staff (shoutout to Missy) and felt so safe and comfortable that I decided to give it a go. They walked me through every step and made sure I had all the info I needed. Bonus is that they've been doing this for so long and know patients so well that they know when and how to make us feel at ease. More then a week later I still think it's almost time to take out my contacts and realize that I'm not wearing any. I love that when I wake up in the morning and open my eyes I can see and don't have to feel around for my glasses. Those moments are priceless! read more

Mandel Vision - Ophthalmologists Near Me - New York, New York

How did this place just completely close without informing any of their patients? Did something happen? Dr. Mandel under-corrected me a couple of years ago and I was supposed to receive my contacts at cost because of that. I feel bad for his other patients that probably had similar situations. read more

As a follow-on to my last review... As all the issues post-PRK were popping up, a number of concerns about the post-PRK care started to come up: - I would be directed to take certain medications but if I followed-up (another appointment or question via phone call) they either couldn't remember what they had given me to take or would tell me I was supposed to be taking something else. The contradictions were concerning - I certainly don't expect perfect memory recall but I do expect good recordkeeping and a concrete plan of action - Dr Mandel insinuated I was exaggerating my symptoms. I'm not sure why I would make a big deal out of nothing Ultimately, I lost faith in their ability to provide me proper care so I've been going to a different ophthalmologist. This doctor seems to have me on the right course although there is still some ways to go. Some observations: - At the new practice, the instruments/machines/technology seem to be better and potentially more precise. - Some odd inconsistencies - at Mandel Vision, I kept being told I had 20/15 vision on the chart but when I went to this new practice, I couldn't see the 20/15 line. I could see the 20/20 line but I find it odd when that disparity exists - I was told at the new practice that I have slight astigmatism - they showed me my imaging and pointed to some blue coloring in a bowtie pattern. This didn't show up at Mandel Vision. My new doctor said this is probably causing some of the starbursts/vision distortions. read more

As someone with a plethora of eye problems, I always thought my eyes were too complex for Lasik. I had a few consultations at other lasik centers, but I still didn't feel confident that I could trust anyone to manage my eyesight--especially because I was never able to meet the surgeon during any of these consultations. I was referred to Dr. Mandel by a friend, and immediately felt so much confidence in his knowledge and skills. He addressed my high nearsightedness, high astigmatism, cup/disk ratio, and dry eye, and answered all questions. He assured me that I was a good candidate, and if I wasn't, he would turn me away. He turns away around 20% of people he sees! The procedure itself was only 10 minutes total. While it wasn't an easy procedure, Dr. Mandel and the surgical technician were so calm and light hearted, that I felt completely at ease. I did not use any premedication for anxiety, but they do offer this option. The next day, I was seeing 20/20! I had some minor stinging, hazing and halos, and light sensitivity. I was assured this is normal during my 1 day post op appointment. Also, I was already more comfortable than when I wear my monthly Toric XR contacts, so I truly have no complaints. I am now one week post-op, seeing 20/20 and my vision becomes clearer every day. My only regret is that I didn't find Dr. Mandel sooner! read more

I got my PRK surgery on 7/8/2019, and I have to say Dr. Mandel and his team are the best even compared to all doctors I had ever met in my life for now! The consultation is free and been very careful in a super organized way, after those complicated examinations, doctor Mandel came to see me. He showed and explained to my own cornea information very specifically and patiently, and I was very happy to know that I was the candidate for both PRK & Lasik. However, since I did lots of research before I determined to have this surgery, I chose PRK as I feel it's the safest way for my cornea and I have plenty of time to get recovered. Then, Missy gave me a super clear instructions to let me know what I should do before the surgery so that I can have fully prepared. On the surgery day, I brought my favorite toy bear from Craftsolic to the office since it also can help with pressure and nervous relief. I was relaxed since everyone in the office treated me very well and had great sense of humor. (They told me would give me a teddy bear if I didn't bring mine lol) A lady and Dr. Mandel both came to examine my eyes before the surgery, and I was very reassured during the surgery since they told me the specific procedure step by step in a super skilled way and the surgery went very well. Later, I also followed the detailed post procedures, so my recovery went so fast. Dr. Mandel even provided me his private phone number to let me call if there is emergency. I met a small issue but worried this morning, so, I had to text him on 6AM, he called me within one minute!!! Then, he gave me the right instructions and spent his personal hour to allow me visit the office. I was so impressed and touched by the his spirit I feel I could never met a doctor who truly cares about his patients like this again! Thanks again doctor Mandel!! Now, I have already checked my eyes again and removed my eye badge. Everything is perfect now. Hope can get my greatest version sooner~ (Btw, I also got a very sweet card from the whole team after the surgery which made me feel very warm) Thanks to all of you! read more

I could not be happier with Dr. Mendel and his entire team. I was so scared to get this procedure done, because I have extremely sensitive eyes. I was scared to even put in eye drops in my eyes. I couldn't even bring myself to wear contacts. When I went in for a consultation, I felt in really good hands. So I decided to book my surgery the following week. Dr. Mendel was extremely patient kind and gentle. I still cry every time I read something without glasses! I can see in a whole new way, and that's priceless!!! This was the best money I've ever spent in my entire life. The payoff is greater than the fear, I promise, it's worth it!!! read more

I'd worn glasses for distance vison for years, but recently I started needing reading glasses too. Rather than carry around 2 sets of glasses, I decided to have my distance vision corrected. I had PRK (rather than LASIK) and although I confess the recovery period after the surgery was EXCRUCIATINGLY uncomfortable (l'd strongly suggest taking a week off work after this procedure) I am very satisfied with the results. I have 20/15 vision, which is even better than 20/20. Dr Mandel and his team (especially Missy) are amazing. Friendly, courteous, professional. they've clearly been doing this for years and know their stuff. Dr Mandel's reputation as being the best LASIK doctor in the city is well-deserved. read more

I just left Dr. Mandel's for my 4 week post op appointment. My vision on both eyes is better than 20/20 and still improving. I started out with -5.50 in the left eye with astigmatism and -5.25 in my right eye. While I was a candidate for both lasik and PRK, I chose PRK as the long term benefits and safety of the cornea Integrity outweighed the longer healing time. The day after surgery, I was able to return to work. Granted my font was zoomed in super big, I had no real discomfort or problems working after surgery. The only day that I had trouble opening my eyes was the morning of day 3 post op. However after resting my eyes that morning, I was able to complete some work in the afternoon. My vision definitely fluctuated the last 4 weeks, which was all normal. There were some days where my vision was super clear and some days where I could barely see at all but throughout my recovery, the entire team at Mandel Vision reassured me that this was all normal. Karem, my laser vision consultant, was responsive to all my questions. If you're getting PRK, definitely be patient with the recovery time but you're in exceptional hands with Dr. Mandel. read more

Dr.Mandel and his whole team were so helpful from beginning to end. Dr. Mandel has amazing way of connecting to his patients and listening to them. He shows genuine concern and is happy to answer all questions. The whole PRK process was seamless from beginning to end, including the healing process. During the healing period Dr.Mandel called and made sure I was ok. I would recommend Dr.Mandel for anyone thinking of doing lasik or PRK. read more

The 5-star reviews are well deserved. I had my PRK done here in March 2021 and have been really impressed with the entire experience. I am LOVING my better than 20/20 vision! Scheduling the initial consultation and all subsequent appointments has been so easy and pleasant. The support staff here are wonderful! Dr. Mandel is really such an expert in this field. He took the time to address all my questions and made me feel like I could fully trust him with something as important as my eyesight. PRK recovery is a little more involved than LASIK. So I really appreciated getting clear instructions about what to expect and how to prepare for my procedure. I'm so happy that I chose Mandel Vision for my surgery! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Mandel and his staff! Everyone is so friendly and caring. I had been thinking about getting LASIK for years and finally decided to pull the trigger after a coworker had a good experience with Dr. Mandel. They examine you thoroughly to see if you are a candidate, and then offer you one of two procedures, LASIK or PRK. I was a candidate for both and decide to go ahead with LASIK. Im on my second day after surgery and no regrets! I have better than 20/20 vision! I appreciated that they thoroughly assess you and tell you what procedure would be best, and sometimes they turn people away who are not candidates at all. Everyone has a great attitude in the office and I am very happy with my new eyes! I highly recommend ! read more

For almost 10 years I was too afraid to get LASIK. But after a RIDICULOUS amount of research, I found Dr Mandel and he seemed trustworthy and had a very strong track record, so I decided to book a consultation. If I'm getting LASIK, I wanted only the best of the best doctor and I can now say he's definitely the guy. My LASIK procedure ended up going great and after just a few days I went from about a -7.50 in both eyes to now having 20/15 vision. Couldn't be any happier about making this life-changing decision. Also, big shout out to the office staff as well. All of them were super helpful and comforting throughout the whole process. Thanks Dr Mandel and team...!! read more

Another happy customer! I got PRK with Dr. Mandel just before COVID. From the start, I was impressed by the professionalism amongst the staff. Everyone is super patient, helpful, and willing to help. Dr. Mandel is the only surgeon in this practice, so you see him EVERYTIME, not one of his assistants or junior partners...this was super important to me. He also does a very thorough job of screening candidates (he rejects something like 20% of patients for surgery), unlike some "lasik mills," whose only objective is to make money off you! Yes, he is a little more expensive, but these are your eyes people. The timeline is as follows: Preop appointment/testing -- schedule surgery --- surgery -- post op day 1 appt --- 1 month appt -- 3 month appt. These are all included in your fee. For the first year, you can continue to have appointments as needed, and any surgical adjustments are included (very few end up needing this). Regarding the PRK itself...life changing...I was a -6 before surgery, so basically blind. My vision now is better than what I had with glasses. The waves of the ocean, the snow flakes falling onto bright green leaves, all seem so vibrant to me now. It took about 2-3 months for my vision to become perfect. I do occasionally have dry eyes and light sensitivity, but these are minor nuisances that do not affect my quality of life. I was so nervous for years to get this surgery, but so glad I did it. Stay away from internet stories about complications, because it will just stress you out. read more

I am about 48 hours out of my lasix procedure and it's already life changing. Mandel vision was great from the consultation- Missy was very kind and thorough and then the communication afterwards was great to actually get scheduled . The packet they give you has clear instructions, background info on the procedure (which dr. Mandel help pioneer) and your consent form . Again, Missy had excellent communication with me to the lead up. I arrived Monday at 845 and walked out around 1030. I had some Immediate discomfort, but at this point I really don't and as I said It's life changing to see around me! Really recommend the procedure here! read more

I found Mandel Vision on Yelp and the reviews were good so I decided to book a consultation (which was amazing). After my consultation I knew this was the way to go. All my questions were answered before I could ask, the staff was very warm and friendly, DrMandel was very nice and explained the whole procedure to me. The day of my lasik appointment went so smooth. I was nervous at first but that quickly went away. Even during the procedure I became nervous and DrMandel spoke to me which helped a lot. Today was the day after my surgery and also my first checkup and I'm very happy with my results. I can see clearly for the first time in years and I'm so grateful that I chose Mandel Vision. I would recommend 10 out of 10. Amazing service !! read more

Mandel Vision - 1 day post-op. - Ophthalmologists Near Me - New York, New York

Both my husband and I had PRK done by Dr. Mandel and couldn't be happier. I had 20/25 vision within the first week. My husband is a surgeon himself, so he was hesitant about any of the vision correction procedures as his eyesight and career is at stake. I was skeptical, before going to Mandel Vision, because I heard so many "vision correction surgery gone wrong" stories. Dr. Mandel's experience, expertise, level of care, patience, technology used by the practice (we did some research ourselves before going) and his team made us feel safe to proceed with PRK. Also, I truly appreciated his bedside manners compared to other ophthalmologists I've seen in the past. It was incredible to see how organized and efficient his team is given that he runs a solo practice. We never had any issues reaching the office to address our questions or concerns. My current vision is a bit hazy however my surgery was only a week and a half ago. It will only continue to get better as it takes about 6 months to fully recover from PRK. My husband had his surgery about 3 weeks ago and can see pretty clearly. Neither of us experienced any complications from the procedure. We HIGHLY recommend Mandel Vision if you are considering laser vision correction. I cannot wait to see the end result in 3-6 months! Thank you Dr. Mandel! read more

I got Lasik done on 7/13 with Dr. Mandel and I'm so glad I did! I went from being dependent on contacts and glasses for over 17 years to seeing 20/15 within a day of the procedure. Hats off to Karem for a thorough and pleasant consultation/scheduling experience and for being a great trusted advisor throughout the process :). What stood out to me during the consultation was Dr. Mandel walked me through the actual scans they'd done to give me a high-level explanation of what went into determining my candidacy - this wasn't my experience at other Lasik centers (though your mileage may vary). I also had a chance to chat with a patient who was in the office for her 1-week post-op appointment, and she couldn't have better things to say about her experience. The day of the procedure, they re-measured my eyes and prescription. Dr. Mandel works fast so the surgery itself was less than 10 minutes total - it probably took more time for the numbing drops to kick in than it did for the lasers + Dr. Mandel to do their thing. As someone who vetted several other places and fell down more than a few Reddit rabbit holes on Lasik gone wrong, I felt the most at ease entrusting my eyes with Dr. Mandel and his staff - they have their whole process on lock and thought through the smaller details of the patient experience that made it all the better (i.e. Dr. Mandel calls you personally to follow up the night of). I still wake up most mornings in a slight panic thinking I slept with my contacts in - maybe not the most relaxing way to start the day, but a small price to pay for being able to see clearly ALL THE TIME. read more

I was referred to Dr. Mandel by two separate friends, and made a consultation with him, as well as an external option for a second opinion. I am so happy I met with Dr. Mandel, as he identified a slight issue with my left eye where typical LASIK could have resulted in various issues later in life, and recommended PRK as a safer option. The other LASIK center never identified or flagged this issue, and Dr. Mandel and his team explained everything, in easy to understand details, including all of the risks associated with the surgery. He most likely saved me from complications with my vision, and I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Mandel and his team. They spend time with the individual patients, and do not treat the office like a "factory" which I have seen with other doctors. I am so appreciative, and have come out the other side and never have to wear contacts again! read more

I had gotten my LASIK procedure a month before COVID-19 had hit NYC and I recently went back for a follow up appointment. The procedures taken by Dr. Mandel and his team are extremely precautious which made me feel very very comfortable. They had proper glass barriers (where needed). They also had soap ready for you upon entry and a fresh pair of gloves. And everything was extremely sanitary. It seems like Dr. Mandel and his team have taken precautionary measures and then some. My eyes are perfect and I am so happy. Dr. Mandel and his team are elite in their field and I heard so many good testimonies before deciding to get this done with his team. I could not recommend them more! read more

I had terrible eyes, -8 and -9 diopters. I have been wearing contacts since 6th grade. I am now 53 years old, sick and tired of dry contact lenses, and finally decided to take the plunge. Dr Mandel and his staff (Missy was great) really took the time to explain what they proposed to do, how they would do it, and what I could expect. They exuded confidence and competence, I was in. I rented a nearby air-bnb for the day of the surgery to make a "fun" day out of it. Surgery day - another set of tests, and a procedure that took what seems like no time at all. Blurred vision as I left to go rest, some pain/burning that night, but I slept like a baby. The next morning, miraculously, I could see without aid. Surgery was on a Thursday (I think). I asked when I could return to regular activities, " tomorrow" they said. "I have a hockey game on Monday, you sure?". "Go for it as long as you have a cage/visor on your helmet to protect my fine work". In general I am blown away with the results, as well as the follow up exams. I have been back a multitude of times to check on my healing process, and everyone seems fine spending time to discuss my progress and concerns. The only thing I regret is not doing it far sooner. I live about 1.5 hours away from the good doctor, and have a million alternatives closer to home. This was worth the ride! read more

Dr. Mandel is amazing! The consultation and the exams were very thorough. Karem was very helpful in answering my endless questions. Two weeks post Lasik, I am glasses free! It has improved my day to day tremendously and I wish I had gotten the procedure sooner. I highly recommend Dr. Mandel to anyone considering Lasik. read more

I really enjoyed my experience with Dr Mandel and the Mandel team. I had PRK surgery (which is painful and suffering), but the Mandel team made this experience so much better with the support, the attitude, the patience, the care. This is one extremely friendly and professional team, and they helped my vision, my surgery and my recovery so much!!! and to whoever is considering PRK, it is painful (not the surgery itself, but the healing process) read more

I'm now 3 weeks since my LASIK surgery with Dr. Mandel and couldn't be happier with the results. After more than half a lifetime dealing with contact lenses and glasses I now have better than 20/20 vision. Hoping for decades of great vision ahead. Dr. Mandel and his team were a pleasure to work with. Always professional, warm and trustworthy. It's a crazy thing to have someone fix your eyes with laser beams. There are a lot of LASIK doctors out there at various price points, but for me it was important to have solid confidence the experience, and in my extensive research and initial consultation, Dr. Mandel and his team were the right choice. My only regret is not having done it sooner! If you are a good candidate for LASIK and don't want to rely on wearing primitive technology for the rest of your life, just do it! read more

I love my experience with Mandel Vision. I visited 2 other Lasik clinics and did thorough research. A lot of people recommended Dr Mandel, so I decided to schedule my free consultation. What made me want to visit was: credentials of DR Mandel, latest tech (iDesign Refractive Studio), recommendations. During consultation I was warmly welcomed by Missy which took measurements of my eyes and my vision. Once I had consultation with DR Mandel, I knew that he will be my laser eye surgeon. He answered all my questions, and on top of that he added some information that I did not ask but should. He measured my eyes again, checked for dryness and gave me list of both pros and cons of Lasik and PRK. He said that I was a candidate for both PRK and Lasik; decision was only up to me which surgery I would choose. I ultimately chose PRK, because it was a safer procedure for me, since my eyes were always a little dry. On the day of the procedure I had my eyes measurements taken again to make sure that my prescription is accurate and did not change (even after 3 weeks!). Entire procedure probably took less than 10 minutes. I was advised of every step that was performed and how it would feel. Immediately after surgery my vision was greatly improved, and I was told that it will improve even more! At the end of the appointment I received a nice tote with Mandel Vision logo, thank you card, pair or dark shields, very clear post-op instructions and availability to ask even more questions about future visits and recovery. 7 days post-op I got my lens bandage removed, vision measured, and I am very close to 20/20 vision. I am excited to see what vision I will have in a month. Thank you, DR Mandel and entire Mandel Vision team! read more

Dr Eric Mandel is the best. After consulting with him on whether I am eligible for PRK, I decided to get the eye surgery. I had been looking into this for years but I had not found the right doctor as I have a thin cornea. With Dr Mandel and his whole practice support and details shared throughout the visits, I felt confident in the procedure. Post surgery, my recovery time was reasonable, following up with a few visits, daily drops and sunglasses. Personally I feel the best as I can see so much more walking around the city, and I'm not dependent on glasses or contacts. It is a massive difference in my everyday life! I strongly recommend visiting this practice if you are thinking about it. Thank you to their whole team for your expertise, efficiency, support and kindness! Allison G. read more

Best experience of my life! From the consultation to the day of surgery. I had visited another laser correction facility prior to visiting Mandel Vision and wasn't given the reassurance that my eyes would be in the best care. You meet with Dr. Mandel himself. He's upfront with you and tells you everything you'll need to know in terms of options and what to expect going forward, if you're a candidate. During the procedure, he walks you through the whole thing. What to expect and what to do. Definitely a bit nerve racking but nothing you can't handle. Quick and easy and it'll be done before you know it. Highly recommend in NYC. Wouldn't trust anyone else. read more

Recently had LASIK done with Dr. Mandel and can't speak highly enough about my experience. The level of care you get between him and his office staff isn't something I felt when I went to other offices for initial consultation and I am so happy I ultimately chose to go with Mandel Vision for my procedure. I've been wearing glasses/contacts since I was 8 years old and it blows my mind that I can just open my eyes and start my day now! read more

Definitely recommend people to go to Dr Mandel. Dr Mandel is super nice and he's happy to answer all your questions. Dr Mandel entire team is responsible. According to doctors recommendation, I did prk. My husband did lasik. Both procedures ran very fast and painless. My husbands vision is 20/20 the next day after surgery. Mine is approaching 20/20 after one week of surgery. Due to my own health condition, doctor Mandel talk with my other doctors in formulating my own plan. Doctor Mandel is super caring for me. If you are considering getting lasik, book a free consultation and doctor will recommend which procedure is suitable for you. Definitely worth it. read more

I am literally seeing 2020 in 2020 thanks to Dr. Mandel and his wonderful team. Everyone is so chill and answered all my (probably) ridiculous questions. I was at -3.75 and had an astigmatism before getting lasik surgery. It was done about 3 weeks ago and now I only use eyedrops when needed and for extra assurance, an eye ointment before bed. I really liked that I was given all the information before making my decision to get lasik and how specific my instructions were prior to surgery. Everything was a bit blurry after the procedure but after I went home and napped for a bit I woke up and was able to see a clear family portrait from ACROSS the room. The experience was insane. Taking care of the eyes post surgery was challenging as you have to be careful, I use cotton balls to clean around and Q-tips for my eyelashes. My eyes still have red spots but are healing nicely and everyday I see more and more of the whites. This is all to say that my recovery is normal/going well and things get better everyday. read more

I met Dr. Mandel and his team today for a lasik consult and I am so pleased. They actually told me I would NOT be a candidate for lasik , prk or any procedures at this time and gave me all of the reasons why I would not be. This is very rare to see in medicine, proving that they are an honest and trustworthy practice. The assistant karem is very nice and polite as well. Would recommend anyone considering lasik or prk to go for him for a trustworthy consultation. read more

I'm one month post PRK and I am truly amazed. Dr Mandel and his staff were wonderful and I had such a pleasant experience from start to finish. The procedure itself went exactly how Dr Mandel explained. He kept me well informed regarding what to expect post procedure and right now I am elated with my results. Thank you Dr Mandel and Missy! read more

Dr. Mandel is awesome. I consulted with two other places before coming here and it was a no-brainer decision. The consultation was thorough and professional. Everyone makes sure you feel comfortable and informed. I appreciated Dr. Mandel spending multiple sessions with me to answer any questions and give me as much information as possible. He also asks a lot about your life to tailor the procedure to your specific needs, not just your prescription. As for the actual surgery, everything went great. I was prepped properly. The actual procedure went smoothly. Post-op care was excellent as well. Highly recommended. He may be more expensive than other places but you can tell they really care about their patients. They're not just trying to do as many as possible. read more

I had a great experience with Dr. Mandel and am now one day post-op, seeing perfectly! I got Lasik from Dr. Mandel and was really impressed by not only his expertise and credentials, but his patience, kind demeanor, and attentiveness to my questions. He put my fears to rest and somehow made a scary procedure almost calming. For having a laser so close to my eyes, I was surprised by how nonchalant I felt during the procedure. Looking forward to my continued check ups with Dr. Mandel throughout the year. read more

It almost feels redundant to add to these hundreds of positive reviews, but I've also had a great experience with Dr. Mandel and his team. I had a smooth consultation, was treated with care and respect by the team and after being confirmed a viable candidate, I went ahead and scheduled my session for a couple of weeks into the future. There was a discount if you book your appointment immediately after your consultation-- luckily I was already planning to book my appointment, so happily accepted the immediate discount. I won't lie, the procedure itself is very uncomfortable and not pleasant BUT I also feel like that's the nature of having your eyeballs worked on. Based on the expertise and professionalism of the office, I would guess that my experience at Dr. Mandel was more comfortable than most of his competitors. They really do everything that they can to make the experience as easy as possible and set your expectations appropriately. The surgery is over very very quickly (less than ten minutes), so is completely tolerable even for the squeamish. I'm typing this review the day after my surgery and my vision is incredible (it's actually now better than 20/20). I would highly recommend Dr. Mandel to anyone considering having Lasik surgery. read more

Do you have poor eyesight and are tired of wearing glasses/contact lenses? That was me 7 days ago and now I'm seeing better than 20/20! I was initially really nervous, but Dr. Mandel and his team are so friendly/professional and do a terrific job answering any questions. The entire process was so well organized with email communication, easy scheduling, clear instructions pre/post-op, and short wait time. I knew I was in good hands when I found out Dr. Mandel published one of the first papers on laser correction surgery, has been doing this for decades, AND when my colleague raved about his own experience as Dr. Mandel's patient. Dr. Mandel clearly loves what he does and holds his practice to the highest standards and beyond! I left his office feeling like a champion because not only have I been given back the gift of perfect eyesight, I feel appreciated and supported by him and his team. Thank you, Dr. Mandel!! read more

I cannot recommend Dr. Mandel and his team highly enough! I had Lasik surgery with Dr. Mandel in March 2019. From the pre-surgery consultation to the post-op check-ins, the entire experience was great. Prior to meeting with Dr. Mandel, I went for a consultation at with one other doctor. While I'm sure the other doctor would have been fine, there was no comparison once I met with Dr. Mandel. He and his team were all extremely pleasant, knowledgeable and thorough through the entire process. The surgery itself isn't the most pleasant experience, but Dr. Mandel fully preps you with what to expect and makes himself available to answer any questions before and after surgery. The night after surgery, Dr. Mandel even called me to see how I was feeling and he had me come in the next few days following surgery to check on my progress. It's clear that he truly cares about his patients. It's been almost 5 months since my surgery and I'm still amazed by the results. I highly recommend Dr. Mandel and his team to anyone considering Lasik surgery. read more
