Dr. Shekhawat is a very kind, patient and skilled surgeon. Easy to talk with and very supportive before, on the day of, and following the cataract surgery. I would recommend him to everyone who needs this type of surgery. I was anxious about the prospect of pain following the surgery because of my dry eye. But so far the results have been outstanding. Very little discomfort!!!
