    It took me weeks to get my initial appointment on September 12, 2022. When I got there we had to…read morewait for a very long time before being taken back. Dr. Alla Yurievna Golovkina-Hynes, MD. She was horrible. I had a very bad cataract in my left eye and a less severe one in my right. She told me that there was only one choice of lens for me because "I don't put new engines in new cars". That was very ballsy and insulting and I cried all the way home. Then she started walking out the door without answering any of my questions. She waved her hand at me while her back was turned and said, "she can answer your questions". WHAT??!! I asked questions she couldn't answer so she had to find the doc to get the answers for me. Then I get told that they are backed up and I wouldn't get an appointment until January or February. That's 5 months and I was pretty much blind in my left eye. I finally got a call in November to set a date for surgery on April 10, 2023... That is 7 months from my initial appointment. We left for a trip to South Carolina where my daughter-in-law said to get it done there. I called and was in 3 days later for an appointment and had the first surgery a week later and the second done two weeks after that. I had a choice of 3 different lenses, so I got the new engine for this old car (I'm 64). That is how it should be. Dr. Alla Yurievna Golovkina-Hynes is rude, condescending and unprofessional. Her office was dirty and I would never consider her to do any surgery on me or anyone else. RUN away from this doctor. She does not care about her patients at all.

    I was very surprised to hear that I needed cataract surgery and even more hesitant when I heard how…read moreit would be done. (I really thought I was seeing very well for my age - almost 79). After having my worst eye done first (left) and on the very same day of surgery, I tried comparing my eye sight. I was looking at a large black & white picture with my right eye and it was perfectly clear to me with my prescription glasses on. Then I took my glasses off, closed my right eye and looked at it with the left eye. It was an "OMG" moment for sure. The picture was a bright white and sharp, clear black. I looked again with the right eye and realized I was seeing a cream color, not white, and a dark gray... not black. I have had both eyes done now with very positive results (as they expected) and the difference is amazing. I must say that dealing with Dr. Jani and his staff was a very good experience before, during and after the procedure (which took only a few minutes). It was also very educational and everyone, including Dr. Jani, treated my questions and concerns with respect and understanding, while taking the time to answer fully, until I was comfortable with the answers. Dr Jani even explained (when I went for my followup) the weird sounding music I had heard and commented about while he was doing the very painless procedure... it was the various tones the machine was making while he was working on me! Sounded like chamber music to me. We had a good laugh about that. I would and will recommend Dr. Jani to anyone in need of his expertise. He is an excellent doctor and I have absolutely no complaints to pass on to anyone. In fact, I'll kind of miss going to see him and his staff.

    I am very grateful to Dr. Binoy Jani for his wonderful care before and after my cataract surgery…read more He is very professional and caring and has a great reputation in Culpeper, VA. Again, thank you Dr. Jani and your staff for all that you do for your patients. Mirna S.
