Dr. Benjamin is a very smart doctor. No doubt he is skilled. But so are many doctors. If, however, bedside manner is remotely important to you, he will not be a good match. After he diagnosed both my glaucoma and cataract issues he wanted to perform surgery, but passed me over to his surgical assistant to discuss details. She quickly told me the sum and then walked away. Both insisted my insurance would never cover it. I then emailed him, saying it never hurts to ask. But after I explained my insurance company needed the specific codes for each procedure, his staff refused to provide them. Dr. Benjamin was forced to write a detailed email and then advised me he had never done that before and that I should look elsewhere for a doctor I would find more amenable. But then Dr. Benjamin’s office played delaying games releasing my medical records. What could and should have taken about 10 minutes took months, even when my own primary care doctor got involved (they hung up on him). I found a different doctor who does not act as if he is God. My insurance covered the procedures and I had my surgeries. There’s no need to put up with this kind of treatment.

Dr. Benjamin's office uses the most up to date technology. His staff are efficient, thorough and kind. Dr. Benjamin examines every aspect of eye health. He takes time to review test results and explain the various treatment options, sensitively prescribing the most effective treatment for me. The results of the surgery were exactly as he had described. The recovery took half the time compared to a similar surgery I had at a prestigious London Clinic and the results far exceeded my expectation. He is smart, dedicated and witty. He will continue to be my eye doctor and I highly recommend him.

Life saver! I can't say how thankful I am for the amazing care of this office. Ok, so I had a puff up of my eye on a Sunday. It got worse, so Monday morning I went to an Urgent Care and got a cortisone steroid shot to help with the swelling. By the time Monday late afternoon i was getting worse. I called Dr. Benjamin's office and they fit me in first thing the next morning on an already packed schedule. I get in and turns out I have an abscess infection in my under eye with several styes! It was really terrible with awful swelling. I was so well taken care of by this office and Dr. Benjamin took me right in. This is a delicate area in the eye and I've never had such a situation happen to me. I felt at ease and so grateful for being so well taken care of when I was so scared and in bad bad shape.
