I had Doctor Wals fixed a misaligned lens that another doctor had done approxmately twenty months…read moreago in my left eye and so on January 14th, 2026 he installed a new lens and he did a great job and I had to wear an eye patch afterwards and I went back the next morning and he took the patch off and I could see immediately. Then Dr. Aran did my right eye because I had really bad cataract and if I covered my left eye, I could barely see out of my right eye and if somebody was 10 feet away I couldn't even tell you what color eyes they had so on March 5th 2026 he did the surgery and it was painless and he did it under ten minutes and I could see right afterwards and I didn't have to wear an eye patch at all and it was a great experience!!!!!!!

Tell me why my mom who is 70 years old and can't hardly see was scheduled for surgery at 6am but…read morethey organize the ride share to pick her up at 4:30am and when she gets to the location there is absolutely no one there. She's elder that can't hardly see in front of a building that is closed and is freaking dark outside!!! Who does that? I call and spoke to a lady so that she can just tell me "oh they do that. They will open soon but doesn't know at what time just that the office opens at 8". What the freak is wrong with human beings now and days!! They speak because they have a mouth but absolutely no compassion whatsoever. And who schedules these poor people. I can't imagine to how many people they do this too. To anyone reading this, go to "Eye Surgeons Associates" instead. The attention, professionalism, caring no matter which location you go to. I have been taking my son to Eye Surgeons for over 10 years and have never had a problem or let down him of any kind!!

Doctor Selem performed cataract eye surgery with multi-focal implants on both of my eyes, and I…read morecouldn't be happier with the result. He is a skilled surgeon who is also very professional, kind and obviously cares very much about his patients. Everyone in both his Westchester and Coral Gables offices is efficient, courteous and willing to help with/answer any questions or concerns I had. They have a very organized system and I never spent a long time waiting during appointments. I am extremely happy with my outcome and can see better than ever, without glasses or contacts!

From my first day at the consultation, to my post-op follow-ups, the staff at TLC Coral Gables has…read morebeen impeccable to say the least. I've been wearing glasses/contacts since I was 3-years-old (yes, it's been a confusing, blurry, journey), so to say I was nervous about LASIK is understating how scared I was about the whole thing. Despite my fears, the staff has been warm, friendly, reassuring, and most of all, knowledgeable through every step of the process. Not even a full 24 hours after I was operated on I already saw better than 20/20. The actual procedure can be daunting at first, but Dr. Aran guided me and literally talked to me throughout the whole 15-minute surgery (which is 100% painless). I can't tell you how crucial this was to my psyche. His reassuring words and step-by-step description of what he was doing kept me calm and focused. Dr. Stelzer, meanwhile, is a beacon of comfort and expertise, and he's THE driving force in making sure the recovery period is as smooth and delicate as possible. To put it in layman's terms: the guy knows his stuff. It's truly miraculous work Dr. Aran, Dr. Stelzer, and the staff at TLC Coral Gables take part in. You're in good hands the second you walk through the door.

Review based on initial visit…read more Receptionist was very attentive and detail oriented. However, Dr. Seltzer should take training on quality care. Not only did he make us wait (as he was leaning back on his chair) he left us waiting for about 30 minutes THEN rushed to get us out of the office. He didn't even give us an opportunity to ask questions. Overall, he was super unprofessional and impersonal. I should've given more credit to the Yelp reviews. If you have legitimate questions about quality eye care, save your time and look else where.

To be clear, 5 stars for the doctors & techs but negative 10 reviews for the scheduling, parking &…read morewaiting room. I didn't want to give a low rating just based on the nightmare that is the scheduling, parking & waiting room area because if you need a great eye doctor & the most thorough exam ever, this place is great. The Good: Dr. Rojas and Dr. Newman explain all the test results in detail and track your progress with the treatments meticulously. The techs are wonderful and kind. They have machines at this location & their other locations that I haven't seen anywhere else. My mom is having treatments done & will likely need surgery soon. We are confident that she is getting excellent care with this team. The Bad: They don't know how & don't care to learn how to schedule patients correctly which results in a standing room ONLY waiting room. There is nowhere near this location that you can leave & go sit at (no coffee shops/restaurants). If you get dropped off here, you are screwed. So, if you can't stand for hours, please don't get dropped off here. I felt sorry for the elderly people in this situation. I know they are aware of the problem which is why I stated that they don't care to learn how to schedule properly. Front desk has no consideration for the patients' time/health issues because the receptionist's job is to schedule & have the courtesy to let patients know if they're running a couple of hours late. They don't care that some people's health issues neither allow them to miss lunch or stand for hours. I hope the doctors see my review. Conclusion: If you need great doctors, they have them but if you need to sit, eat with certain frequency, or you need to park your car, don't come to this location.

My pair of glasses had broken, I was out of my contacts supply and I was due for my annual eye exam anyway. Upon arriving, you see the clear indications of mandatory face masks and you're automatically greeted by Marbelly. She is so polite! I was seen rather quickly, considering the amount of staff is being limited to one receptionist and one optometrist. For my first visit, I was seen by Linnett Molina and the second by Tharanie Amarawardana. Both very professional and thorough. If you make an appointment in advance, chances are you will be seen at that specific time which is always appreciated by patients. The neighborhood isn't the best but the office is impeccable.

I first observed in a Hospital explaining to an RN the results of his examination of a patient. I asked if I could also do part of the exam to observe the patients eyes as it was not invasive. Most doctors are reticent to have nurses do an exam out of their presence. He reviewed what I saw with me. He did my cataract surgery. His staff is only two people who go out of their way to answer questions and make people feel comfortable. He keeps his schedule of timeliness. People I have referred to him have also been pleased with his skill. I observed him interacting with people with developmental disabilities with patience at his office before giving them an exam. He diagnosed a vision problem that could have lead to blindness and got me a referral to Bascom Palmer quickly.
