I was in pain during the surgery and my Vision was better before the Surgery. I’m hoping some how it will get better.
I’m sorry but I have to say I’m very disappointed

I really didn't speak with him much or had much communication but what he explained before the medication put me out was thorough.

Did a great job on my 1st cataract surgery and I’m sure the second one will be great too. Asks questions and provides answers to any questions I have. Has a great staff working with him.

Dr. Awad was thorough as was his staff in gathering data and equally clear and understandable in communicating current conditions and what to continue to do in terms of eye health.

He has very pleasant demeanor.
The wait time for him after the tech finished her exam, etc was a bit long but I rather he spend as much as he needs with patients.
