Great with young children. My son is 1 years old and he was able to get the test done easily and kept my child engaged when he would lose focus.

This was the second time we visited Dr. Panarelli and he is an outstanding Doctor. First visit and we were terribly distraught as we were told by other doctors it could be a potentially dangerous issue. He took his time with our daughter and thankfully realized she just needed stronger meds. Her yes that were swollen shut dor 2 weeks finally started returning to normal after 2 doses. Second visit was the same. He checked everything out thoroughly. We did not feel rushed. He has such a great bedside manner with children and the office is set up to keep little ones entertained while they wait and in the room. He figured out the problem as he had years ago and we were so thankful.

Dr Panarelli is fantastic!! He’s 2 of my children’s doctor and I can honestly say he’s great with both kiddos. As a special needs mom you’re always looking for caring and understand doctors. Dr Panarelli is detailed, skilled and thorough in his treatment. I was amazed to see him care for my kids. One child being non Mobil and verbal and he knew exactly how to care for her. My other child being a bit on the hyper side he got in there and made the appointment smooth and effective! I couldn’t be happier.

Have been taking my kids to Dr. Panarelli for years. He recently moved to this new practice, and we followed him here. He is passionate and fun to be around. The kids love him! Under his care, my kid's myopia is under control without glasses. Unlike other doctors who charge excessive amount of money for eye care and glasses, Dr. Panaralli is so reasonable! So lucky I chose him as my kids' eye doctor!

Thorough, kind and attentive to questions/concerns. I am so glad we have great pediatric Ophthalmologists so close by in Westchester!
