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.

Expert retinal surgeon.
I can’t thank Dr. Danesh enough. He gave me back the gift of sight in my left eye following retinal detachment. He is an expert surgeon that patients can have confidence in. As a surgeon myself, I see how he takes the care of his patients personally. I cannot recommend him more highly. Five stars for sure. Ted Firestone MD.

DR. DANESH IS VERY EFFICIENT AND HE IS A GOOD DOCTOR. HE IS VERY KNOWLEDGABLY, AND HE KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING. ON THE CONTRARY, HIS OFFICE STAFF IS VERY MEDIOCRE, AND APPALLING, ESPECIALLY THE RECEPTIONIST. SHE IS YOUNG, VERY INEFFICIENT, RUDE AND VERY DISRESPECTFUL. SHE HAS NO GOOD MANNERS, AND MISTREAT THE PATIENTS, PARTICULARLY ELDERLY PATIENTS. IT IS VERY DISCOURAGING, AND VERY SAD, AND HURTFUL, TO FEEL ABUSED WHEN YOU ARE SICK. IT IS A SHAME THAT THIS LADY IS WORKING FOR DOCTOR DANESH. SHE'S A BAD ASSET FOR DOCTOR DANESH TEAM.

I highly recommend Dr Danesh and his staff. The office staff and technicians are very efficient and friendly and Dr Danesh has one of the best "bedside manners" that I've experienced. He is very thorough and explains what is happening so you can understand. He obviously cares about his patients.

Had what was called Macular Wrinkling in my left eye. Vision was poor at best could not read street signs. Dr. Danish explained my condition and what was needed to correct my problem. I had outpatient surgery two weeks later my vision is getting better it takes 3 months for total heal time. I can see far better than I could and its only been 2 months.

Dr. Danesh saw me on an emergency status and was amazing. I have a detached retina that happened while I was in China for 3 weeks so it is quite serious. He was honest and frank with what my outcome will be. He also took a great deal of time to explain my situation. He comes highly recommended by my Ophthalmologist whom I trust implicitly.

Be prepared to wait for hours if you do to see this doctor. His office is as disorganized as anything can be in the known universe.

Dr.Danesh is a blessing! He is very professional but so caring. He understands our fears and is honest, straight to the point. He is definitely a Dr. with a GIANT ?! He treastsball patiens as if they are priority! He made room to see me and when my surgery hot pushed or my appointment was late I understood! He might have had to do that for me! Hearing his gratitude to others when he performed my surgery was awesome!

Dr. Danesh was referred to me by my Optometrist when my retina was torn. Since then, my right eye is better than it was prior to the tear. A year later I detached my left retina. He saw me right away and performed surgery the next day. Present day I see fine. Dr. Danesh is not only a fantastic! eye surgeon, he is a kind caring human being. He loves his profession and really cares about his patients. I usually don't write doctor referrals but I owe this man so much.

Earlier in the week I found out I had three retinal holes with fluid accumulating under the retina. My retina was starting to detach and needed treatment in a timely manner before any significant vision loss occurred. Dr Danesh opened his office for me after hours on the weekend, treated the holes with laser and essentially saved the vision in my right eye. This level of patient care is almost unheard of in today's medical world. I am grateful for his expertise and commitment to patient care

I had detached retinas in both eyes, about a month apart, 8 years ago. Dr. Danesh saw me immediately in both cases and saved my vision. I now do not need glasses at all for distance, and straight lines are straight. I am so grateful for having my sight.

Went for an optometry exam on wed. afternoon- the photo showed bleeding and swelling - immediately the office called Dr. Danesh and an appointment was scheduled early Friday morning... I am so thankful that they accommodated me with such short notice... I am now on my way with scheduled treatments. Cannot say enough nice things about Dr. Danesh and his staff.. I know I am in very competent hands and am thankful it was Dr. Danesh who was recommended

Staff is pleasant, efficient & knowledgeable; Dr. Danesh is confident, reassuring, patient, & highly skilled. He addressed my situation with compassion, immediately allayed my fears, explained things to me so that I could easily understand my situation, & conducted his exam thoroughly but gently. I left his office with a great weight lifted from me, yet secure in believing that if my situation ever changed I’d have a highly skilled and compassionate professional in my corner. He's the best!
