Retina Orange County

Dr. Vaidya is the absolute best ophthalmologist!!! He is smart, kind and has the kind of bed side manner that all physicians should emulate. Thank goodness for yelp reviews on Dr. Vaidya. I was looking for a retinal specialist and after reading the positive reviews, I decided to make the call for an appointment. Going to an ophthalmologist can be terrifying because these are a vital part of your senses. I was experiencing symptoms that were certainly worrisome but after spending time with Dr. Vaidya, I felt that I was in good hands. Bad news is bad no matter what, but who delivers it by how they do it is crucial to patient compliance and healing. Doctors forget that their patients are scared and don't have the medical knowledge to digest the complexity of their health issues. For these reasons, being in the care of a physician like Dr. Vaidya has been a Godsend. He doesn't make you feel rushed, you leave his office feeling cared about because he addresses all your questions and concerns. And when I had an emergency on two separate weekends, I had to call and was surprised to have Dr. Vaidya return my call with the same care he shows during his office hours. I've had personal experience and have known others who have been scolded or rudely treated by doctors because it was on a weekend. I always feel terrible and hesitant to inconvenience anyone let alone a busy doctor on a weekend, but your body doesn't discriminate weekdays and weekends. Without going on and on about how wonderful this doctor is...I'll just say please do yourself a favor if you need a retinal specialist and go see Dr. Vaidya.

Exceptional Ophthalmologist Specialist in Retina!!! I consulted him for a 2nd opinion assessment of my eyes. Dr Nadeem Vaidya took his time to assess, explain the retina scan/ images and cared about my concerns. He's straightforward with the options as well as risks versus benefits !

Dr. Vaidya treated my mother at his Staten Island office. She was very happy with the care she received from him and has made him her regular ophthalmologist. She was especially happy at how fast should could get an appointment with him as she would wait 1-2 months for an appt with her previous eye doc. A great physician for anyone looking for a eye doc in the area, great demeanour and very meticulous.

Dr. Valdya is caring, thorough and very informative! Will recommend to my friends, patients and family. Dr. Gong

Very pleased with my care in this office. High tech equipment along with the doctor's knowledge makes me feel medically on top of the latest care for my diabetic eyes. Highly recommend.

First of all, this review is long overdue, and I agree 100% with all the other comments.Dr. Vaidya is outstanding! His calm demeanor, patience and expertise put me at ease when he explained the treatment I needed for my detached retina and retinal tears and holes. When the day arrived for treatment, I was quite nervous as I went in, but I soon relaxed just by being in his presence. His level of professionalism is beyond measure.Dr. Vaidya is exceptional, and I encourage you to visit his office for your eye care needs. His team is fantastic as well. Everyone is friendly and efficient.

I'm SO thankful I got a second opinion and saw Dr. Nadeen Vaidya. He was able to find a medium size hole in my left retina even though I was just told by another retina specialist that I had nothing wrong with my eyes. HIGHLY recommend this doctor. He's very kind and patient. I really appreciated that he took the time to really understand what's been going on with my eyes.

Most Advanced Just like what it says in their webpage "most advanced" is actually true!!! I ruly believe they have the most advanced equipments.

Just a great experience Dr. Vaidya was fantastic. The office was clean and modern and the staff was professional, knowledgeable, attentive and caring. I was referred with a serious problem and Dr. Vaidya and his team took the time to make the correct diagnosis (others had missed it) and start me on the right treatment. I'm starting to see better.

I was impressed with my first visit to this ophthalmologist. I was the last patient seen and it was my first consultation. I was very much welcome by the receptionist with a big smileThe doctor took his time to explain things to me He was very professional. He answer all my questions fully. He suggested an injection for my right eye with no pressure. Im lucky to choose him as my eye doctor and I'm going back for my follow up because I like the service

Doctor Great bedside Manner and knowledgeable. Has been well-trained.

Just came back from my first visit with Dr. Vaidya. I previously had a retinal problem and my primary care physician referred me to him. Sarah and the doctor's assistant were so helpful with insurance concerns. He has the most up-to-date, high-tech equipment. I've never had such a thorough consultation. Dr. Vaidya took his time explaining every detail while showing me the computer-generated visual diagrams. I whole-heartedly recommend Dr. Vaidya to anyone who has/had retinal issues, as well as anyone who appreciates an exceptional opthalmologist.

Just loved the experience. From scheduling to the doctor visit was excellent. I had to get an urgent appointment and the scheduler was very understanding and fitted me into the schedule. The doctor was very understanding and took his time in explaining the situation. Highly recommended.

Dr Vaidya is smart, personable, and empathetic. He takes all the time you need at every appointment to answer any and all questions thoroughly, and never makes you feel rushed or like you're just another number on his schedule that day. He remembers you and your issues, which is pretty cool. He also tells it like it is regarding your condition and treatment options, without any embellishment to persuade you one way or another. He gives you the facts and leaves all decisions in your hands. You never feel like he's pushing you to make money. I had a retinoschesis in my right eye, and he kept it under observation for several years, never pressuring me to undergo a procedure for it because he said it wasn't truly medically necessary. When the retina finally started detaching, he said it was time, and was even happy to give me a referral to another retinal surgeon for a second opinion. I went to that guy, Dr Brent Norman in Newport Beach, and even though he was older and grayer than Dr Vaidya (more old school experience), his cold, mechanical attitude just didn't connect with me. I scheduled my reattachment procedure with Dr Vaidya, it went flawlessly, and my recovery went exactly as he said it would. I followed his post-op instructions to the letter (and even more strictly, keeping my head facing down for a week), and now 8 months later my vision in both eyes is virtually exactly where it was before my retina issue -- and with no cataract because I followed his aftercare instructions religiously. Today I went to see him, 6 months after my last post-op checkup, and he gave me a big thumbs up. He told me to schedule a follow-up appointment 1 year from now... or he said even 2 years if I get busy because things are looking perfect. Not money-hungry at all, love it! And his reception staff and ophthalmology / retinology assistants (don't know their title) are super friendly and nice, too.

Doctor Great bedside Manner and knowledgeable. Has been well-trained.

Dr. Vaidya is an exceptional retinal ophthalmologist. He has the best and newest equipment and I've never had a more comprehensive consultation. Dr. Vaidya uses computer-generated visuals while explaining every detail of each eye. I've never encountered such an informative and easy to speak with doctor. Am grateful that I am now one of Dr. Vaidya's patients.

Positive experience My first visit with Dr Vaidya, he took a lot of time explaining my condition to me and also the treatment plan. He is very patient and took time to answer my concerns and questions.

Doctor Great bedside Manner and knowledgeable. Has been well-trained.

Excellent & knowledgeable doctor who quickly examined me and made a diagnosis that eased my mind. A specialist who is available the same day is rare and I’m so appreciative.

Went to see Dr.Vaidya, he took the time to answer all my questions today. He did a great job explaining things to me, I never felt rushed. He really was very easy to talk with and really took the time to listen. Very knowledgeable on the eye and I learned alot about my eyes during the visit. I would highly recommend Dr. Vaidya. Also the staff was very nice, Broken even took the time to call me back after I asked the Dr. a question before scheduling me in. Great Experience!

Dr. Vaidya recently treated me for a retinal tear. I've had perfect vision all my life so I was terrified to think that I could have a potentially blinding condition. He was extremely understanding of my fears/hesitations in making a decision regarding my treatment options. After all the time he spent explaining my options I felt confident in receiving laser treatment from him. 6 months later the tear is still sealed and I follow up with him regularly. I fully recommend him for anyone looking for a good retinal specialist.

The best of the best, they are on time, very professional and very friendly. I have my macular inspection done 4 years ago and this time around they have all the record on the ipad. We could see any difference on both eyes quickly. The equipment is very advance and new. 30 mins, they performed OCT, retina pictures and human inspection of my retina. I loved it. Anywhere else, it would take 2 hours! Don't think twice, call them now. You have no time to waste with retina problems.

I wish I can give Dr. Nadeem ten stars ! I came in to see him earlier than my intended appointment day because I had a feeling that I should see him earlier based on my symptoms. The front desk was very nice to fit me in. Dr. Nadeem was so knowledgeable and kind. He was patient was all my questions and so considerate with my concerns. He wanted to run some blood work to be thorough and rule out any possible issues. I was so surprised when he called me after hours when he was told by the front desk that I had called about some test result and was worried. And although he was not in the office that day, he still called me to reassure me and explained the results. He was honest if there was something he wasn't sure of and suggested I speak with my other Doctor. This takes a both humble and confident physician to acknowledge. I'm so impressed and feel really lucky. Doctors are not God, even if some make you feel like they are. Dr. Nadeem has exemplary bedside manner and the medical knowledge that helps his patients like myself feel like they are in very good hands. Highly recommend!

Dr. Vaidya has such a warm and patient manner that he can actually make the uncomfortable experience of having your eyes dilated and examined relaxing! I'm normally very uncomfortable with anyone looking at, examining or poking at my eyes, but this was a breeze. And his entire staff is very professional and cheerful. I must thank Dr. Jeffrey Joseph for his excellent referral.

Eye Surgery The surgeon and entire staff were caring throughout the procedure.

Doctor Great bedside Manner and knowledgeable. Has been well-trained.

Dr. Vaidya is an exceptional physician and ophthalmologist. I feel very fortunate to have found him. He and his office staff are courteous, prompt, professional, and very organized. Dr. Vaidya had reviewed, prior to my appointment, my medical records sent to him from other eye specialists. He explained everything thoroughly and clearly answered all my questions. He spent an incredible amount of time with me. His office and equipment are spotlessly clean. I felt very reassured after my exam. I learned more about my eyes from Dr. Vaidya than from all from all previous ophthalmologists combined, including an eye exam at a well-known teaching hospital in Los Angeles. It was a pleasure to meet with Dr. Vaidya.
