Samantha listened, asked questions and made me feel very much at ease. I trust her especially yes, I respect her diagnosis, but she allowed me to make the decision regarding treatment at this particular time. I would recommend her without hesitation.
Dr. Marek is outstanding. I had my first of two cataract surgeries for which I was a bit nervous. Dr. Marek took her time answering my questions and explaining the procedure. She is patient and compassionate. I feel much less nervous about my next procedure under her care.
Dr. Marek was very thoughtful and complete in explaining a new procedure for me. She was very knowledgeable.
Dr. Merak is so wonderful!! She cares about her patients!! I always feel so much better just having seen her!! We have a great Dr. patient relationship!! She is a borderline Eleven!!!!!
Samantha was very nice but I could have been much better informed on my surgery details / process and follow up . If I knew the pain ( 1 week extreme pain ) that was involved and healing time I would have cancelled the surgery. She seemed very busy and moving through things too fast also . I will not be doing my other eye as I’m told now it’s not necessary .
She is a very gifted and talented surgeon.I appreciate all that she done for me.She gave me a new lease on life.I would recommend her to everybody that need the surgery done.Thank you
Thank you
She was very professional and kind in insuring I understood what was going on and responsive when I asked questions. Her bedside manner was very friendly and caring. Enlightened visit.
Nice office visit- she explained thoroughly about my cornea problem. She was very assuring to me. Highly recommend her.
She was wonderful
