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.

Excellent Eye Doctor
His staff is always friendly and welcoming. He is quick but thorough and answers any questions you have about your condition(s). I’ve been seeing him for over ten years. Originally he had a day he would see patients at a diabetic clinic on 1960 and Eldridge. He eventually stopped seeing patients there and I followed him to his main office in The Woodlands. I don’t normally go too far from where I live for appointments but I do for his practice.

Professional service with all questions answered
I’ve been seeing Dr Abdelghani for more than 10 years for monitoring and treatment of macular degeneration. While sometimes there is a long wait (not today!), his thoroughness and attention are worth it. While his demeanor can be brisk, he is always willing to answer my questions and to offer ways I can lower my risks for loss of sight.

Great Eye Doctor
Dr. Abdelghani is very thorough. He is patient and always answers my questions. It seems like he's always rushing but not with his patients. He explains in layman terms exactly what's going on with my eyes. If you're looking for an eye specialist he's the doctor you should see!

Great Doctor and Great Staff
I have been seeing Dr Abdelghani about a macular pucker for the past two years. He is always caring, understands my vision issues, and checks that I fully understands any treatment he provides. He listens. I am especially impressed with his staff. Paige, in particular, goes out of her way to make sure every patient is treated with respect and compassion.

Caring doctor & staff
I had an emergency and needed to be seen as soon as possible, and Dr. Abdelghani and his office were incredibly accommodating. Despite a busy schedule, they made time for me without hesitation. Dr. Abdelghani greeted me warmly, assessed my eye, and provided an effective solution. Within two days, the pain had subsided just as he assured me it would. I’m so grateful for the efficiency and care of both Dr. Abdelghani and his staff during a stressful time. Highly recommend!

Excellent opthalmologist!
Dr Abdelghani is an excellent opthalmologist, retina specialist. He is very knowledgeable, very professional, and also kind and patient. His office staff takes good care of the patients also. Sometimes there is a bit of a wait, but I take that as a good sign. He is highly valued as an eye doctor and has many people to take care of. And the office is well organized. I appreciate them all!

Outstanding Ophthalmologist
Dr. Abdelghani is truly a talented and outstanding and Ophthalmologist. His deep knowledge and extensive experience is very apparent, which creates a high level of confidence and comfort for patients. He performed emergency surgery to repair a detached retina in my right eye during the pandemic and everything went perfectly. I give Dr. Abdelghani my highest rating and feel fortunate to be under his care for my vision health.

Great treatment with patients and answers all you!
I was nervous about seeing him as my eye specialist had done both cataract surgeries but no problem until 3 months check up so I went to see him. Got injections in right eye but laser surgery to correct left and a month later I am seeing much better.
