Wasim Samara, MD

Gentle hands.

Very professional

Professional and thorough regarding explanation of condition and next steps for treatment.

He injected fm the top of my eye which led to more discomfort for 2 days vice side injection which is better in about 4 hours. I hope I don't have his services again.

Appears to know his profession and is compassionate, patient and knowledgeable.

Entire staff is very courteous and professional.

Building clean, staff professional, serviced quickly. Only suggestion is that you add some quite music. You can hear "private" conversations.

Extremely informative. All questions were answered. I would recommend to anyone.

As always Great!

Great Dr. Very thorough and compassionate.

Shot didn't hurt at all

Did not put enough numbing agent in eye and it hurt when he stuck me with the needle

Dr Samara has done a good job taking over Dr Riggins practice.

Listened to my comments and concerns. inspired confidence. Helped me remain confident of positive results.

Very nice man and he explained everything well to me and answered all my questions!

It has been a pleasure despite the experience. Professional, personable, and an all-around great doctor to trust giving shots in one's eye for improved sight. Thank you, Dr. Samara

Dr. Samara is very caring and very good with details.

Very good doctor, needs to talk to patients more very distressed the clinic moving to Dunn closer than Raleigh but still problem for elderly patients .

Dr. Samara was very competent as well as soft spoken, gentle and explained things well.

Very pleased with his patience and professionalism. Would recommend him to anyone who need eye care.

Very caring and professional.

Great job Excellent+++++++

Doesn’t seem like he’s caring enough or really worried idk

I normally see Dr. Patel, but he was out. This doctor never reviewed my chart before seeing me. Asked me who diagnose condition and who prescribed the medication for it. Eluding to who ever diagnosed me had no clue what they were doing. He was Very dry and had no bedside manner. I was very disappointed as I left with even more questions and no answers.

I was very pleased with the excellent eye examination I received from Dr. Samara. He was professional, caring and careful examining my eye. I feel confident that I am in good hands with him as my eye doctor

I thought overall the service was good however, the wait time was a little bit long and the method of calling the next patient was a little bit awkward. The doctor was very friendly and efficient.

Dr. Samara was extremely informative and helpful. I appreciated him answering my questions.

Very pleasant, courteous, and professional doctor. He worked me in for emergency surgery. He did a great job and great follow up.

Dr. Samara explains what to expect in simple terms for me to understand. His assistants are always so kind and professional.

Dr. Samara is courteous and helpful in answering all my questions, very considerate and concerned. Thank You Taylor Retina Center for all your help; such a great caring staff. Agnes W Powell

All staff polite, professionals.

Answered questions well.

I had a 10:45am one-day post opt appointment and I didn't get out until 12:45pm. The doctor finally came in, looked at my eye for a few seconds, then took what sounded like a call from a sales person and then spent maybe one more minute looking at my eye. Not impressed with the doctor or his schedule. The assistant that first looked at me was very efficient.

Very nice and caring! Always tries to make the visit as pleasant as it can be! I appreciate everything he has done for me!

Dr. Samara and the entire staff are always kind and supportive. His skill and care are much appreciated.

Honest and to the point.

Was very thorough.

Apt. Was at 2:30 and finished at 4:00 , which usually 35-40 minutes !

NO COMMENTS JUST WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THE OUTSTANDING SERVICES

Very professional and pleasant to deal with.

There is little discussion of vision issues between MD and patient. Everything at the clinic is all about numbers and getting people in, seen, and out the door.

Very good visit

Excellent and down to business

Very gentle, knowledgeable and caring.

Friendly, very Knowledgeable, thorough

Love him & all the staff as well

Very clear at describing my problem and answered any questions.

Dr. Samara is very caring and takes the time to answer all of my questions.

Dr. Samara was pleasant, prompt, and efficient in administering my husband’s treatment, was knowledgeable of his medications, and answered questions about his prognosis and posible medication interactions the Kenalog 40 might have with medications recommended by my husband’s dermatologist for his psoriatic arthritis.

Very quick talker and sometimes cut me off in conversation answering before I could finish questioning. Otherwise he was great.

Professional & very personable. Includes me in decision making.

Very good doctor , answers questions, takes time with patients .

The procedure didn't hurt. Which is a BIG plus!

Dr. Samara is a great doctor

Allowed a dementia patient that has documentation by physician she's not competent to decide whether or not to treat her vein occlusion when her daughter is her HPOA. Did not check eye pressure after the injection and eye didn't look good afterwards....

I feel pain with the injection more so now than months before. No discussion time as too much going on. Feels like a cattle drive in office process.

Very good

Concerned about my problem.

Did not take the time to explain my situation to me.

Made us feel comfortable from the minute we met him.

Went the extra mile to correct a tear in the retina in the office hopefully alleviating the need for surgery.

Didn’t greet me as a new patient. Did t tell me what to expect as to how HE does the procedure. Walked out the door a for a long period of time not telling me he was giving me extra time for the numbing to work

Very friendly, but left office not knowing what to expect from my procedure. Was a Friday and I would have liked to have someone answer some questions.

Dr Samara is a great specialist and has excellent bedside manner, always calm, listening and thorough. I also appreciate how medical and administrative staff at Taylor Retina Center approach patients, always kind, friendly and helpful.

Don't have anything else planed for the whole day because he doesn't care about your time see you when he is ready disentangle matter what your appointment time is or was DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS DOCTOR AT ALL

this was my first visit here, so I was a little bit more nervious. Everything went well, but I did experience more soreness later in the day than normal.

Very good visit

My eye was sore for 2-3 days afterward. Visiion was extremely blurry as well. I've had probably a dozen Eyelea shots from two other doctor with no problems at all.,

Communicaton was stilted and the information initially provided was limited. He did answer questions so the examination results were finally clear.

Even though it’s not my life’s ambition, to have injections in my eye, he makes this very easy. Period.

Excellent...i like everyone in their office

First time I have had discomfort for over 24 hours. Still feel some discomfort of the left eye at 3 PM Tues. Eye continues to drain copious tears. I think you overdo the pain killer procedure prior to injection.

So kind and thorough! Really enjoyed talking with him.

My appointment ran 2 1/2 hours behind. While I realize it was most likely not the doctors fault, that length of time waiting is extremely rude. If I were that late, I would not be seen or, worse, I’d be charged a fee. Do better, Taylor! Samara, on the other hand, is great. Friendly, efficient and personable.

Very nice and knowledgeable

very rough patient care.

He was very nice and very informative. I felt very comfortable and pleased, Thank you Dr for all you do

My Doctor was friendly and helpful. He answered my questions so I could understand what to do.

Very caring to his Patients

His bedside manner is awesome!

This was my first appointment with Dr Samara but I was very satisfied. He was very professional and nice.

I feel very comfortable and trust him With my eyes

Very thorough. Excellent bedside manner.

Very professional and knowledgeable. Pleasant attitude

Friendly and professional. Instilled confidence, took away the worry. Looking forward to a really good outcome

Dr Samara is simply excellent. So glad I found him to do my eye surgery.

Excellent

Very professional

Dr. Samara was better than the physician who did this procedure years ago on both eyes when I had cataract surgery. Dr. Samara is thorough and personable. A is a very good doctor. I was apprised of the after-effects of the injection and what to do for certain symptoms. This is only day two and the floaters are gone and I am seeing what seems clearer out of the eye that needed the injection. Highly recommend Dr. Samara. I can wait to see him for the next injection but have no hesitation about when it comes time, he being the one to tend to my eye injection.

Dr Samara is very personable and explains everything in an easy to understand manner.

Poor bed side manor! Very dry personality! Hurt me more than previous doctor with the same procedure. Was not a positive experience!

Dr. Samara is low key and provides a reassuring presence as he discusses your medical issues during the visit. He always says to call if there are changes in my vision. Call immediately he will say.

Dr. Samara saved my vision! He acted with urgency and I was able to get surgery same day. He was patient and attentive and would highly recommend him for retinal care.

Dr. Samara was very professional , knowledgeable and kind . I highly recommend him ..

First visit. Very personable & knowledgeable. Had a choice of clinics & glad I chose this one & got Dr. Samara.

Dr Samara was thorough, reassuring, and helpful in explaining my eye condition.

Absolutely knows what he’s doing as well as his staff

This was my first experience with Dr. Samara. I have monthly injections in both eyes and usually my eyes have a lot of floaters, some of which are bloody, and my eyes are swollen and somewhat painful making it difficult to see. The effects usually last until the next day. I had none of these effects after Dr. Samara's injections. I could hardly tell that I had any injections at all. I don't know whether he had a different technique or if it was just the luck of the draw. Also his assistant rinsed my eyes differently which may have contributed to the lack of swelling. As my comments indicate, I was very pleased with my experience with Dr. Samara.

Last two tx felt pain and left with blood in eye! In five years of tx never felt pain and had blood in eye once before

Very professional and knowledgeable.

Communicates well and answered my questions. I have confidence in his skill.
