I’ll visit Dr. Siegel for the first time he was more understanding and caring and after surgery. I understood everything he asked me to do. He is a very good doctor. You can’t find a good doctor like him that you can trust. Because I was a very nervous, scared patient.

Dr. Michael Siegel is always pleasant and always offers to listen to concerns. At times I feel that he may not see the bigger picture of the potential side effects of eye drop medications to control eye pressure that may negatively impact the sinus', gums and teeth. I think he is honest and recommends what he feels is the best course of treatment.
