I researched and made my appointment.
I was seen & know that I made the proper.
The staff: pro
The wait: Efficient; you do need the drops to work
The Doc: Trusted; I trust my eyes to this man.
I do a lot of things with my eyes & when I was told that I had "pink eye," I knew it wasn't true. I knew it wasn't so simple...
Yet, since I never had it, I assumed the issues were part of this.
Eventually, way many days later, I needed to be told that if my vision is such, I needed to be told from someone that I trust.
I found Dr. Raviv, made an appointment & was seen.
I trust this man based on the initial visit & follow-up.
He is specific & I hold a high appreciation for this.
We work together still in addressing my issue, but I know that whatever the outcome, I know that I have someone that I do trust.

Great doctor and staff. Very attentive.
July 18, 2016Jason E.Verified patient
Despite booking my appointment a week in advance, I wasn't told until I was in the office that refraction would not be covered, and I should pay, which I did. Then the doctor tried to convince me that I had "tired eyes" and I should purchase his expensive eye mask, which I also did. On second thought I returned later with the unopened mask and was refunded, but the entire visit was barely better than what could have been received at an optometrist, where the refraction would have been covered (according to the office)

Dr. Raviv was excellent. I have never written a review in my life but I don't mind writing this one because how excited I was to find a great doctor. A doctor should not just be knowledgeable but comforting and personable. He had great people skills plus it was obvious that he is very passionate about his job and treating his patients. I highly recommend him!
