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.

My eyes is still doing great!
I had a pterygium a long time ago. I always refer people to Dr. Saini if they have had the same condition I did. It was a scary moment for me but was blessed I found Dr. Saini. Its really scary when your eyes are problematic because you dont want to go blind and have any issues with your sight. Thank you Dr. Saini! I bless you and your family for helping others with your expertise. I will see you soon on my next visit.

Dr. Saini has a very unique approach. His patients are important to him and he reveals this by his very kind interactions. I felt very well taken care of during my cataract surgery. And guess what? It's true that cataract surgery is painless!!

I had RK about 30 years ago with another physician. I have since developed cataracts and vision changes. Dr. Saini had his hands full with my case. We started with the worst eye because it had 8 RK incisions. After cataract surgery, the vision and corneal surface changed continually for about 3 weeks, then settled down completely and I now have 20/20 vision in that eye. The second eye had 4 RK incisions and the cataract surgery went without a hitch. IT'S A MIRACLE! I am 20/20 in both eyes.

I was very reluctant to have a much needed cataract surgery. I found Dr. Saini via a Google search. He performed the surgery with no complications. He is the consummate professional with an excellent bedside manner. He is patient, and caring. I will not hesitate referring him to my friends and family.

Dr Saini is one of the finest, most professional doctors I have had the pleasure of seeing. I was pleasantly surprised at his dedication to creating the perfect (most difficult) lens for me for my cataract surgery. His genuine concern regarding the outcome of this procedure demonstrated the extent of his dedication to his patients and pride in his work. Temecula's loss of this fine Doctor is Escodido's gain....YOU WILL BE MISSED, Dr. Saini.
