George Fava, M.D.
I waited at least 40 minutes in the exam room waiting to be seen. I was emailed after visit care instructions BEFORE even being seen. He made me feel uncomfortable because he began talking about what vitamins I should be taking and asked if I had spoken with a registered dietitian because of a medication I’m on. All of which would and has been discussed with my PCP. Also referenced the amount of water I drink in a day and seemed surprised that I drink more than the recommended daily amount. Just overall not a good experience.

Joseph Pancher, O.D.
Communicated everything as he worked, even as it seemed he may have just been talking to himself. I got a lot of insight into any eye problems I may have or seem to be in line for in the future.

Dr. Fava is very thorough doctor. He does pver everything in detail to make sure you understand what he's telling you. My only gripe is this is the second appt. in a row where he was very late getting to the office for his appts. I make an early morning appt hoping that they will be on time, so I can get off to work.
