Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

One of the best there is. I've had so many retina issues over the years that I owe it to him. He's aggressive and at the same time very prudent. A no nonsense kind of surgeon.

Would recommend to anyone
I lost 40% of my vision in my left eye.. he was very informative explaining what could be done to fix my issue long term and short term fixes we chose long term and after 8 months of treatment I was back to perfect vision.. I highly recommend seeing him.. He had even mentioned me getting a second opinion if I wished he was very up front no beating around the bush which I liked about him… The office was always busy he did schedule very tight appointments but I never felt like I was overlooked or rushed he knew what needed to happen on the day of the appointment and trained his team and students to treat us with respect as people and respect our time.. Every visit was very informative and on time… really hate he has moved on from Omni I have been waiting on him to land somewhere because I trust him more than I’ve ever trusted any doctor…

My experience with Dr. Alurkar was outstanding. Feb. 2020 I had an eye injury causing complete blindness in my right eye. Dr. Alurkar performed emergency surgery for a retinal detachment with a macula-off. 6 months post-surgery my sight is gradually improving in time. Surgically, my retina repair is perfect and with a contac lens my vision will be much better. I am very grateful for Dr. Alurkar’s skill, care, and concern for his patients.
