Patient Reviews
Oct 12, 2018
My overall experience with Retina Consultants was excellent. The entire establishment works like a well-oiled machine. My condition, a partially detached retina, required emergency surgery and I got immediate and perfect care. My surgeon, Dr. James Luu, was calm, considerate, caring, and very professional. After my 30 minute surgery another patient who was waiting asked me how it was -- I reassured her by telling her truthfully that it was "a piece of cake"! And I healed in one month!

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?
