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.

Caring Dr
I enjoy this practice. The Dr is very patient, never feel rushed. The staff is always friendly as well and typically the office runs on time!

Went to Dr Lakhani for the first time today. I’m somewhat afraid of doctors but my visit with Dr Lakhanir could not have been better. I walked into his office and his receptionist (Hanna) could not have been nicer. Then I saw the doctor and his exam couldn’t have been more thorough. He took the time to answer every question (making sure I understood his answer). I would recommend him to anyone!

As a prior resident from Long Island I did not think I would find an eye doctor as good as the one I had.....but then here comes Dr. Lakhani. I needed to see him in an emergency and that was not a problem. The staff is friendly and very capable and the doctor...."The Best". So glad I was referred to him and you will be just as happy if you become his patient. He is understanding, caring, extremely professional and confident.

The way every Doctor and staff should be. The courtesy, promptness and professional manor of Dr. Lakhani and staff was beyond anything I've come to expect from medical staff anymore.
