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.

Horrible coward
I have one eye. The night before my surgery he called and said I wouldn't be happy but with No explanation.He did the surgery anyway. My vision in the only eye I have is horrible. I will have a life of issues with a bad product. He is a horrible uncaring human.

I have been a patient of Dr. Mandelberg for many years. Today, (11/14/19) I had my annual checkup with Dr. Mandelberg and was once again totally impressed with his thorough treatment and attention to detail that I've always received. His staff and assistants are always professional, courteous and informative. I'm proud to say that after Dr. Mandelberg replaced the lenses in both of my eyes, my vision has been remarkably improved. He is a fabulous surgeon. I would recommend him to anyone. Best wishes, Phil D.

Dr. Mandelberg’s attention to detail with my cataract surgery was amazing. He was very careful to check the measurements multiple times to be absolutely sure that my eyes were accurately measured for the Intraocular toric lens replacements. As an Airline Pilot, I was concerned because good vision is obviously a requirement in my career. Well now my vision is a solid 20/20, uncorrected. Dr. Mandelberg went over and above and the results are life changing. I am forever grateful to him.

I've been a patient of Dr Mandelberg for 12 years. He is highly experienced, professional and an excellent doctor. I recently had cataract surgery which went perfectly and I'm thrilled with the results. Dr Mandelberg gave great care in all follow-up appointments. I highly recommend Dr Mandelberg.

A couple weeks ago I had cataract surgery. Sure, the possibility of losing whatever vision remained in my bad eye was very slight, but I was worried nonetheless. Throughout the entire process, from diagnosis to post-op care, Dr. Mandelberg and his staff have been caring, very attentive, and the outcome is better than I could've hoped for. I'd been misdiagnosed elsewhere, which is why I sought out Dr. Mandelberg to begin with. For the first time in years, I can now properly SEE. Amazing.

Dr. Mandelberg performed cataract on both of my eyes. My right eye had a problem that he noticed right away. He successfully corrected this problem with the end result of excellent vision in both eyes, to my great satisfaction. I highly recommend him to anybody for correction of their eye problems. My sincere thanks to Dr. Mandelberg.

Dr. Mandelberg performed cataract surgery on my right eye. I couldn't be more pleased. The procedure was brief and the results after one week are astounding. Thank-you, Doctor Mandelberg, for everything. Great office and great staff as well.

He was thoughtful and kind in dealing with us and our concerns. He was conservative with our expectations and left us astonished with such excellent outcomes through two surgeries and now vision with no glasses. Thank you Dr. Mandelberg.

Dr. Mandelberg performed cataract surgery on both my eyes, one a month before the other. One eye had a couple of out of the ordinary conditions that he immediately noticed and took extra precautions to ensure that the surgery would be successful without any complications. As a result, both surgeries went very smoothly and were successful. In addition, whenever I called his office with questions or concerns, they were extremely courteous and patient.

Dr. Mandelberg is an excellent Dr. He explains everything very clearly and with a kind, caring demeanor. He is very friendly, while being totally professional. He recently performed my cataract surgery. I couldn't be more satisfied with the results. He also corrected my distance vision during the surgery. I now have 20/20 vision for distance! I highly recommend Dr. Mandelberg!

I moved to the North Hollywood area about 22 years ago. Dr. Mandelberg was referred to me from friends at the company where I work. Dr. Mandelberg is an excellent doctor, explains everything and is very caring. His staff is always helpful and friendly. The optics department staff is very helpful when trying to decide on a new pair of glasses. Dr. Mandelberg makes me feel comfortable and explains everything. I always feel like I am in good hands when I see him.
