Provided by Doctor.comDr. Epstein wow what can I say. You improved my life 100% I am a Mail Carrier and glasses were a very big problem. When it is raining, or in the winter when you cover your face your glasses fog up. Try to see out your windows just the elements outside are hard enough to deal with let alone have glasses on. I had my Lasik and PRK done on June 13, 2019 and it is now October 2019 and my eyes are perfect. I am so happy ad can't thank you enough. The whole team in your office are awesome. Just waking up everyday knowing I don't have to wear glasses makes me happy what can I say WOW Dr. E you are amazing.

Provided by Doctor.comDr. Epstein and his staff have been amazing to work with. Our son was diagnosed with a rare corneal disease, for which Dr. Epstein has extensive experience in treating. I cannot thank Dr. Epstein and his staff enough for their thoughtful care throughout every step of our son's treatment.

Provided by Doctor.comI highly recommend this doctor to anyone. He gave me the best patient care I have received in a long time. Other offices turned me away due to my condition and I was told nothing can be done to better my vision, then Dr. Epstein came along. He is great at what he does. I already recommended my friend to come see him! Looking forward to my Lasik procedure to see the results!

I was referred to Dr. Epstein because I could not see well and another doctor thought it was a cataract and referred to Dr. Epstein for surgery. But he found out that I actually had a brain tumor. He referred me to a neurosurgeon who removed the tumor without even making a scar on my head. My vision god much better. I feel that Dr. Epstein not only improved my vision but saved my life.

I had lasik eye surgery by another doctor with unsatisfying results. Dr. Epstein was able to do a single treatment to make we see well without glasses not only at long distance but also for the computer and reading books.
