The reviews listed below were collected independently of Retina Associates of Cleveland through rater8. Each review represents an authentic and verified patient experience.
Dr. Nothnagel’s sensitivity to his patients is amazing. He very kindly and calmly expresses and explains in detail your present condition.
Most importantly to me, he was unafraid of disputing a diagnosis that was not true by a forwarding ophthalmologist that I had seen. I am very grateful.
