Dr. Mariam Mathai, M.D.
I called on a Friday afternoon after I developed light flashes in my eye. I was able to see Dr. Mathai on Monday morning, so was appreciative of the promptness of getting me in. Dr. Mathai is thorough and explains what she is finding. I like her manner and professionalism.

my first appointment a week ago was really excellent, but today on April 11,

Very well run practice, easy to schedule first-time appt, tech saw me right on time and Dr Katira came in ~1 hr later after all the pics were taken and eyes were dilated. She was very gracious & knowledgable. Exactly what I was looking for in an ophthalmologist with a specialty in macular degeneration.

I been under the care of Dr. Mathai for a couple years now, she is kind, caring and compassionate. When I started seeing Dr Mathai I was newly diagnosed with diabetes and was having a hard time with my vision and was extremely scared because I know what can come with my disease. She assured me that I will be fine and we are going to get it under control. I’m so grateful to have such a caring doctor in my corner.

Dr. Mathi, is been taking care of my eyes for the last 5 years. I am very pleased with her work and professionalism to perform. She’s very transparent and try to find every possible detail in order to help with the health of my eyes…!

On time, knowable, listen to patient questions
Apr 3, 2025
Notified me in person that my eyes needed a few more minutes to completely dilate. Came back and proceeded to check each eye telling me what she was seeing. After the exam Dr Mathai did a recap of the checkup and discussed a followup in 12 or 24 months.

Dr Matteo is the best doctor I receive treatment from among half a dozen specialists. I wish the other doctors were able to give me the time and concentration that she conveys.

Great experience as soon as I walked in. I didn’t have a referral from the right doctor, and your front desk staff was very patient and helpful. Mohamed is so great at his job, and it really shows. He really has a good vibe. I can’t remember the girls name from the front desk. She’s very pretty and has long hair. Anyway she had a good vibe too. And Dr Mathai was very professional, pleasant, and shows compassion. Very thorough explaining things on what the next steps are.

Dr Mathai is so professional
Mar 25, 2025
Very efficient process, and Dr. Mathai was very clear and warm as always.
My only concern is that Dr. Mathai and the front desk don't seem to be on the same page about the Good Days program, which left me feeling pretty unsure about the status. But I think that's mainly because the status is unsure.

It was a highest quality care

I have been a patient of Dr. Khanifar's for several years. I have always been more than satisfied with his care and treatment as well as that of all the staff in the Silver Spring office. As someone who has always been a little paranoid when it comes to their eyes and vision, it takes a lot for me to say that I have complete confidence and trust in Dr. Khanifar's care.

Excellent appointment and explanation of what’s happening with my eyes.
