Tengo 55 anos y no podia mas con los espejuelos. No veia ni de lejos no de cerca. Los espejuelos nunca atinaban con la receta y me pasaba cayendo. Habia ido a otros medicos y me habian dicho que no era elegible para operarme, casi habia perdido las esperanzas. Vi un anuncio de este instituto y me di la oportunidad , cuando me hicieron la evaluacion me dijeron que era elegible y alli mismo pusimos fecha para operacion.

Aqui estoy escribiendo esto sin espejuelos.

En el Instituto de ojos tratan a las personas como reyes. Todos son super simpaticos y todos , absolutamente todo el personal se desvive por agradarte y ayudarte. Los recomiendo!!! Son los mejores!!! Hicieron mi sueno realidad!!! Gracias!!!

Atención excelente. Logica de seguimiento en las áreas de atención. Personal bien sincronizado y buena cortesía del personal con el paciente y acompañante. La atención del doctor Colón Casasnovas extraordinaria. Deben darle cátedra al gobierno para el servicio de salud pública y oficinas médicas privadas y hospitales privados para que emulan en sus servicios.
