Highlighted Testimonial “This is a world class practice with world class medical practitioners....

Dr. Raviv, Dr. Sherman and the entire team, including office staff and the staff at the surgical center, were outstanding. This is a world class practice with world class medical practitioners.

Most importantly, Drs. Raviv and Sherman are outstanding physicians- totally at ease with the latest technologies and experts at their craft. They were able to obtain results better than they even expected. I went from a minus 1200 prescription/with progressive lenses for reading to not needing glasses using the light adjustable lenses recommended by Dr. Raviv.

But the excellent results are not the only reason for my satisfaction. It's the obvious technical expertise and knowledge of the doctors, together with their excellent judgment and compassionate, engaging and professional manners. They both take all the time necessary to achieve the best results possible and are excellent communicators.

They both get to know their patients and the patient's issues, are available to answer questions. Dr. Raviv promptly returned calls himself and was totally familiar with my case- it is truly rare for such a busy specialist to provide such individualized attention and care.

I had 6 follow up appointments with Dr. Sherman to adjust the lenses (which is routine with the light adjustable lenses), and at each visit she performed a comprehensive exam and evaluation. Dr. Sherman was conservative (which I very much appreciated), attentive and technically outstanding.

As a bonus, Dr. Raviv has clearly hired, trained and cultivated an informed, pleasant and competent team at both the office and his surgical center. The surgeries went flawlessly and I had every confidence that I had the absolute best ophthalmologist caring for my eyes and my eyesight.

I would recommend Drs. Raviv and Sherman to my family and friends without hesitation. I cannot envision a better experience.
