Dr. Vakharia checks all of the boxes. She’s knowledgeable, empathetic and a great explainer. It’s rare these days to find such a wonderful doctor.

They took me right away, the tech did the initial prep and then Dr Priya did the examination and said she was pleased with the progress and if there were no issues she would see me in 4 months.

Fantastic office staff. Friendly and yet professional. Dr. Priya has the steadiest & gentlest hands that I have ever seen. Takes care of my 92yr old father as if he was her own! I wish we would have found her years ago! I would recommend her to ANYONE who need advanced eye care. She is by far the best I’ve seen.

Dr. Vakharia has been absolutely wonderful. She has taken over my case (torn retina). The initial surgery was performed out of state. During a routine follow up she noticed another tear. She was able to perform a retinal buckle surgery within 18 hours. Dr. Vakharia is not only a very talented surgeon, she is also great at walking me through the processes, the risks, the next steps and the timelines. These are difficult conversations which she handles in both a professional and personable manner. One of my favorite things is that she always takes the time to ensure that all my questions are answered. After each interaction, I have never felt rushed or that I didn’t fully understand the status of my case.
