Retina Orange County

April 20th, 2021 Great bedside Manner and knowledgeable. Has been well-trained.

very honest, polite, speaking of Dr.,front office, assistant as well. relaxed environment.

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 !

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.

He's the best! Calm, Bright, Communicative! What else can you ask for.

Very nice people,very professional ?

My yearly visit to Dr Vaidya is truly life saving and eye-saving for the past 5 years. His staff are indeed professional and helpful. He is patient in responding questions and I highly recommend him to all OC and LA friends and family

February 13th, 2011 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.

May 6th, 2018 Outstanding! Dr. Vaidya is truly a wonderful, caring, professional, knowledgeable and attentive doctor! He is in a class all by himself. His staff is friendly, courteous and caring. The office is very clean and organized. My appointment was on time and the check in process was very easy. At no time did I ever feel rushed during any part of my visit. Dr. Vaidya went out of his way to ensure I felt comfortable (absolutely wonderful bedside manners) throughout the examination process. He took the time to answer all my questions, he reviewed my records and gave me a complete explanation/diagnosis of my condition and subsequently performed a flawless, successful surgery right afterwards. Dr. Vaidya is one of those special doctors you rarely encounter throughout ones lifetime. I have been seen by many and I must say he is at the top of the list. Thank you doctor.

Great practice with compassionate care and understanding. The doctor spent time with me and explained everything to me.

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.

February 11th, 2011 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 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.

The ladies infront and the drs assistant were all very nice .The doctor himself is great ! ?

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.

Great Doctor very organized and uses the latest technology out there. Very in contact with his patients, he is always there if you need him for emergency, He as a great staff working for him . highly recommended. A++++

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.

Five Stars 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.

Just a really educated and on top of it doctor. He is personal and friendly and allows him to convey everything you need to know.

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

I would highly recommend Dr. Vaidya at RetinaOC. He's very easy to talk to and really takes the time to explain your eye issue to you, as well as your treatment options. His office is very modern and clean, and his staff is warm and friendly.

On appropriate occasions, I will comment about a remarkable employee or product from which I received assistance or found exceptional.I am writing today to tell you of the incredibly professional and outstanding service I received from your retina OC staff. The receptionist arranged for me to see Dr. Nadeem N. Vaidya, MD, Vitreoretinal Surgeon at Retina OC, on very short notice the same day. The technician was kind, helpful, and efficient, which was appreciated as I could see Dr. Vaidya soonest.This last occasion to see Dr. Vaidyawas regarding a sudden loss of eyesight in my left eye. I had previously been a patient of the doctor for a detached retina. Let me say on both occasions, I was, in short, terrified that I might lose my vision. On both occasions, Dr. Vaiday was incredibly calming and extraordinarily knowledgeable and spoke in a positive/confident manner to say, "we can fix this " and he did so on both occasions. I can't say enough about this excellent doctor; he is kind and will take as much time with you as you need.

Doctor Vaidya is always professional and very attentive to my concerns. His staff is very nice. I could not expect a better office for my retina problems.

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.

Came to Dr. Vaidya because I had an eye issue that needed urgent attention and couldn't get an appt. at the other opthamologist in Newport that everyone says is the best. Dr. Vaidya is absolutely amazing. Thorough, great bedside manner, kind and explains everything is detail. So glad I found him. You will not be disappointed.

Outstanding care. Informative, gracious, knowledgeable, and prompt. All you want in a doctor.

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.

My optometrist recommended an OCT scan due to having a risk for glaucoma. Dr Vaidya did a comprehensive exam and determined that I was very low risk, which provided a peace of mind. He is a great doctor who is informative and thorough in is explanations. I received the scan results and notes from the exam within 30 minutes after leaving. The office environment was stellar - the front desk, staff and environment. They were very responsive during scheduling and questions.

Totally recommend Retina OC. I was referred by my optometrist and Dr Vaidya was able to see me immediately. He was very thorough and took very good care of my issue. I am very pleased with the follow up. I was also very impressed with his staff, particularly Christy at the front desk.

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

Awesome Doc I waited briefly to see the doctor. He was very patient and understanding. I felt very comfortable.

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

Office ladies Stephanie and Sera great TEN + Dr. Nadeem is also TEN + I highly recommend this office clean and newest equipment. He spent quality and carefully time with me and explained everything to me. I am so happy to find them. Chef Avo.

First time coming here and it was a great experience. From super friendly people at the front desk to the Dr himself, I was very glad I chose them. Everything was explained in detail and all my questions answered with patience. I highly recommend them.

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.

I found Dr. Vaidya personable, confident and thorough. I was anxious about the reason for my visit and appreciated his open communication during my examination as well as the time spent to answer my questions. Also notable is the experience with front office and associate staff, excellent! I don't have a situation where I currently require regular care from the office but if you do the ability to book appointments and view records online is such a value add!

August 16th, 2019 Dr. Vaidya is knowledgeable, professional, gentle and took time to explain the results of my examination which made me feel confident that I was blessed to be his patient. I highly recommend Dr. Vaidya and his team.

Thank you to Dr Vaidya and team for the excellent care! I highly recommend. I’ve been a patient for 7 years. Always so professional and caring!

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

Beautiful office.....friendly staff...very prompt...everything first class. Dr Vaidya is wonderful. He was warm....reassuring and he explained everything extremely well. He was so calm that learning I needed surgery was not stressful at all. So happy I met Dr Vaidya and his great staff!

Office ladies Stephanie and Sera great TEN + Dr. Nadeem is also TEN + I highly recommend this office clean and newest equipment. He spent quality and carefully time with me and explained everything to me. I am so happy to find them. Chef Avo.

Dr. Vaidya and his team are always cheerful, attentive and helpful. The office location and atmosphere couldn't be better and the doctor has always provided outstanding treatment and a most pleasant demeanor.

Dr. Vaidya is an excellent and caring specialist in the area of Retina diseases. I was under his care for treatment of Wet Retina Degeneration, and I am fortunate that his accurate diagnosis and excellent treatment prevented loss of vision of my diseased eye. Also all associates in the front office and exam room were always considerate, pleasant, and caring...... Thank you all.

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.

Dr Vaidya's office and staff are top notch. He is very patient and fully explains everything and discusses all of your options. His office is state of the art and very clean. I have been to other retinal specialists before, but never had one who has taken the time to really explain things thoroughly! If I decide to do the surgery, I am sure I will be in good hands with his expertise- Harvard trained!

Dr. Vaidya is an amazing retinal specialist. He is kind, caring and detailed with his diagnosis and with his surgeries. My wife works for Dr. Vaidya several days a week and she has had nothing but good things to say about him. As a husband...it is absolutely essential to me that my wife is treated well. She was not treated well at her previous employer so the last few years with Dr. Vaidya have been a huge blessing. Having my wife come home tired but happy is a HUGE & welcomed change from her old job, where she would often be emotionally distraught & completely exhausted. Dr. Vaidya treats her with respect and kindness like a valued part of the team. It means the world to me because good men, like Dr. Vaidya, who are exceptional at their work and treat people well... are hard to find nowadays. The OC Carpet & Rug Specialist is proud to give Dr. Vaidya & Retina OC our highest recommendation possible!
