Dr. Koreishi was exceptionally kind and his calm demeanor helped put us at ease when we were anxious about the results. We think he was a bit surprised by the results, but he was able to figure out so quickly an explanation that was clear, concise, and logical. This speaks to his intelligence and his impressive ability to think fast and work under pressure even when two anxious people were staring at him. We are extremely grateful for the opportunity to have him guide us on this complicated journey called cataract surgery. He was also concerned he had not responded to our questions on MyChart quickly enough, but we are thankful he even responded at all, given his busy schedule. We had chosen him to be our eye doctor because of all the positive feedback he had received from his other patients; it's clear he has earned the utmost respect from all of his patients, including us.

His time with a patient is very brief, but he listens intently and remembers what the patient tells him -- even weeks later when it is doubtful that any notes were taken. He is very reachable, providing his cell phone number in case a patient has a problem. I'm going to be living out of country for a while, but if I have trouble I am to call him and he will arrange for care in [location] if need be.

He is one of the few doctors who are easily accessible by giving patients his phone number. The only criticism we have is that he could do better with communicating to his patients when the outcome of the operation is less than ideal. Patients are usually understanding when things don't work out as planned, but the patients have the right and the need to know as soon as possible. Otherwise, he is a very knowledgeable and compassionate doctor.

Dr. [last name] seemed very technical in his approach, but Dr. Koreishi was able to bring a human touch to the whole process.
