Dr. Margolies is a caring great doctor. I have been going to him for years because of his expertise, ability to explain everything in lay terms, and great care. His office is one the best run offices. All the personnel are pleasant and helpful.

I had a wonderful experience. From deciding when to go with Cataracts removal, the lens to implant, to the actual surgery and follow up. The results were excellent and it went smooth with no pain. Dr. Margolies and his staff were great. A+

Dr. Margolies was amazing fitting me with the proper contacts and glasses. I have a difficult fit and had trouble finding a doctor that was able to get it correct. After going to two other doctors in the area I was very happy to find Dr. Margolies. I have been seeing him since 2003 and very happy with the quality of care. I highly recommend Dr. Margolies.

Just had cataract surgery on both eyes with laser and multi-focal lens. People who know me know I don't part with money easily; this is the best money I've ever spent on myself. Vision is now crisp, clear without glasses. Great experience with the Doctor and his staff.

I visited Dr. Margolies for cataract surgery and replacement lenses. The office staff was caring and communicative, and the procedure went very well. My eyes are brand new! It was great to be able to throw away the contact lenses forever. Dr. Margolies followed up after the surgeries on both occasions with a personal phone call. I highly recommend Dr. Margolies and would not consider anyone for the care of my precious sight.

I have been seeing doctor Margolies for years. He is a great doctor, extremely knowledgeable and cares about each patient. When I go to some doctors I just feel like a number that they want to get in and out as fast as possible, but doctor Margolies always makes me feel like I matter. He genuinely wants to make sure I understand the health of my eyes and takes the time to explain things that I Dont fully understand. He is a great doctor and a wonderful surgeon, he did my cataract surgery.

Every single time I come to this office, I have to wait at least an hour or more to see the Dr. I find it extremely disrespectful that they consistently book appointments that they run way way behind on. I respect the Drs time and arrive on time, I would spect the same treatment. Won't be coming back.
