My overall experience from the the booking of my appointment, the updates regarding my appointment, the entire staff as well as Dr. Margolis was outstanding.
Verified patient
The attending assistant was very professional and helpful. The Dr. was also very professional and explained everything clearly. The only downside was the time in the office. I came in at 1:55pm for a 2:15pm appt and left by 3 :55pm. Most of the time was just waiting. But the service was very good.
Office staff were very pleasant and timely with obtaining my information and getting all the testing done before I was seen. Dr Magolis was very informative she answered my questions without rushing and gave me a lot of helpful suggestions, coming back for my annual:)

Dr. Margolis is excellent, careful, kind & share her incredible expertise I referred my family member & others. The front staff are excellent and very helpful. The nurse/technician was excellent. No delays -
Patient ahead of me appears to have had a lot of questions for the doctor so this delayed start of my session. Front desk staff took the time to go and get an update on the reason for the delay, without being prompted and updated me of the situation. Technician was very gentle and made the process easy with clear instructions Dr. Margolis is the best ophthalmologist I have ever had, she listens and explains the reason for all her recommendations. I have recommended her to 2 others already.
