I was diagnosed as having glaucoma. I had just had a previous eye exam 1 month earlier and was told my eye sight had improved! The doctor explained the seriousness of my diagnosis and what needed to be done to treat it.

Dr. Velotta took her time explaining each option for my treatment, including possible side effects of each one. She was very patient and kind in dealing with the extreme anxiety I was feeling after I decided to receive the injection.

Dr. Emily Velotta is an exceptional doctor. She performed a [procedure] surgery on my 87 year old mother and literally gave back her sight, when other doctors did not even mention that as a possibility. The procedure was smooth and painless and she let my mom know of every step so she would not be worried. She is not only knowledgeable, but very kind and caring. She was also very thorough with the eye exam and addressed all our questions and problems.
