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.

I am very satisfied with Dr. Mandava's care and surgery and with his explaining what is involved my anxieties were manageable. The result is great! It was worthwhile to come from New York City to Greenwich to have the cataracts done by Dr. Mandava and his staff is friendly and efficient.

I saw Dr. Mandava after another surgeon had botched the job. Dr. Mandava is smart, thorough and a great guy. He diagnosed the problem, which was significant, and he fixed it. I'm seeing great now, thanks to him.

My post-operative visit after cataract surgery was like all my encounters with Dr. Mandava's office - outstanding. First, as to the surgical result - my vision is now 20/25 - one week after surgery. I haven't had better than 20/100 vision in 60 years. Then, the care is outstanding. Dr. Mandava is competent, caring, patient, and friendly. His staff reflects this competence. They're efficient, knowledgeable, and cordial. Great experience.

It's takes time to get an appointment with Dr Mandava, but it is worth the wait. He thoroughly explains the cataract surgery procedure. He asks questions to determine what your needs are - close up, computer work, distance needs. And he listens! One drawback: The technicians will do all the pressure tests and eye exams as soon as you arrive. However, the office staff over-schedules Dr Mandava's appointment times. I have waited as little as 5 minutes and as long as 55 minutes.

Dr Mandava is my favorite MD of all time. He did an excellent job with my cataract surgeries — not only is he incredibly skilled and competent in his work, he is an extremely kind, compassionate and caring individual. I could not recommend him more highly!

Dr. Mandava was a pleasure to meet. He has a very calm demeanor and made this very nervous patient feel comfortable. He spent time with me and was very patient has I kept asking just about the same question over and over. I just was not getting what he was telling me because I was anxious. I would highly recommend anyone to see Dr. Mandava.

What can one say about Dr. Mendava that hasn’t already been said. He is an amazingly gifted doctor and I consider myself to be very blessed to be one of his patients. I have complete trust and confidence in Dr. Mendava and know that I will always receive quality care and benefit from his remarkable knowledge and skills. I consider him to be a man of great courage and character who continues to educate himself on the latest technologies and discoveries concerning the human eye. I admire Dr. Mendava and respect him as a man as well as physician. He is also intelligent enough to surround himself with an excellent staff, specifically Mr. Juan Carlos and Stacy. Both of these individuals are always courteous, professional and very kind and patient with not only me, but with all the people I see and hear them interact with. Dr. Mendava and his team are the best! May God continue to bless them as they continue bless their patients. Thank you for all that you do for so many. Pat Albers

Dr. Mandava is THE BEST OF THE BEST. He did cataracts a few years ago ,and I paid for the expensive Bausch and Lomb Lenses...they were worth every penny. Now my vision is 20/20.. I have sent many New Patients to him, and all of them give him RAVE REVIEWS.. Thanks Dr. Mandava...

on arrival,I was immediately made comfortable. The nurses were very pleasant and put me at ease. When I was wheeled in for surgery, I was totally relaxed. My surgery went well and I was able to talk to Dr. Mondava during the surgery! I am to have my other eye operated on next Tuesday and have no hesitation in going ahead with the surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Mondava to anyone considering eye surgery!
