“Very nice guy was able to help me out with an eye problem and explain what was going on
Should have gone directly to an eye doctor as opposed to two previous visits to Citi MD
Follow up in a month
Thanks ”

“Know how every time you go to a new doctor's office and you fill out a whole personal and family health history, and when the doctor finally sees you they ask you questions that they already had the answers to if they just referred to that sheet? Dr. Mav actually read my sheet. He asked questions. He listened. He took the time needed to help me with my vision problem and was able to confirm what my problem was and what next steps were needed. He didn't rush me out, and he listened to what I wanted. I'm not a doctor, but my thoughts on being a good doctor is asking questions and listening. Dr. Mav did that. I was very satisfied with his treatment.”

Professional and courteous.
September 6, 2024Michael L.Verified patient
I was seen soon after my appointment time. Both the technician and doctor both did a thorough job. The meds I was given started giving me relief after 1 1/2 days. The Doctor went through the testing results with me and made sure I understood the results. They did not push me to purchase new glasses in fact the Dr. said to hold off until my follow up appointment in one weeks' time.
July 22, 2024Lewis A.Verified patient
Overall great visit, Dr. Mazniker helped clear up a lingering eye allergies that were bothering me. Would definitely recommend
July 10, 2024Paul K.Verified patient

June 22, 2024Sebahahte B.Verified patient
Dr.Mazniker is a great doctor. He was patient and took the time to listen to my concerns and discuss my eye history. He is very knowledgeable and detailed in his explanations and is solution oriented to fix any optical issues. He recaps and asks if there’s any questions towards the end of the appointment for clarity. Different from many other doctors who see you for a few minutes and rush you out. Overall, amazing.
