How likely are you to recommend Dr. Persaud?
Dr Persaud does a perfect job of explaining exactly what is happening with my medical situation, new symptoms to be aware of and resolution path if necessary. I have a posterior vitreous detachment, common w age; he perfectly explained how it occurs and the steps we are taking over the next 4 weeks. He’s also very personable and caring. Highly recommended him for any eye conditions that require a medical doctor
