The speed in which my problem was resolved. The courtesy of Dr. Ammar and his staff.
I recently moved to San Diego from Los Angeles and I needed a new eye doctor. I was using the Retina Macular Institute in Torrance. The Doctor gave me a complete analysis of my condition and recommended to have a cataract evaluation. It was the best treatment for me in years.
Dr. Ammar gathered an enormous amount of information from a variety of measurements, both from instruments and from direct examination, to give a thorough and complete review of my condition. He explained how the eye worked, and in particular the macula and the retina. His explanations were clear and he answered every question.

Dr Ammar was extremely knowledgeable and professional. He did a very thorough exam and diagnosed a tear in my retina. He immediately repaired it with laser treatment, which was painless and quick. I am so grateful for his diagnosis and expert skills to repair my eye.
Dr. Ammar is an outstanding Physician. He is an excellent Ophthalmologist/Retinal Specialist. His knowledge and expertise is unparalleled, as is his bedside manner. Dr. Ammar spends time to explain everything in a way you can understand. There are not enough positive adjectives to describe him. I am blessed to have found him and honored to be one of his patients.
I arrive a few minutes early and was seen immediately! No long wait time which is usual with this practice. I had a very good session with Dr. Ammar who didn’t rush and answered my questions.
I was referred to Dr Ammar by the other wonderful eye specialist, Dr Aminlari due to a bleed that was found a few years back, all tests were done with care and the staff was well organized and trained. Dr attitude is kind, professional and learned about my issue. I trust and recommend him highly.
I developed a retinal tear and was referred to Dr. Ammar. After a thorough examination he recommended treatment. His clear explanation and patient, caring manner made me comfortable to go ahead with the prescribed procedure. He followed up monthly for a year to be sure the tear was stable, which it still is over a year later. I have had two other concerns and both times the office got me right in. The office is very efficient and I've never had to wait long to be seen. All in all a very good experience. I highly recommend Dr... read more
