“Both of my daughters were diagnosed with strabismus - one as an infant 9 years ago, the other when she was about 5 years old, and she’s now 13. We were referred to Dr. Cadera and he is one of the best pediatric ophthalmologists in the area. I would never go to anyone else. He is knowledgeable, professional and approachable. He is absolutely outstanding with kids of all ages, and he just knows what will make them comfortable, whether an infant or an adolescent. The whole atmosphere is warm and welcoming and the staff are gentle and patient. Everyone is very supportive.”
Julie Thenell Grasseschi, Ballard “Your staff is so friendly, courteous and professional, it gave me confidence and freedom from any fear or apprehension. Thank you for a good experience.”
Shirley Fairchild, Seattle “For many years, I worked as an optician, so when I was referred to Northwest Eye Surgeons in Smokey Point, I knew what to look for. I was thoroughly impressed by the staff - they were all helpful and professional, and they made me feel comfortable. They explained everything, before and after the surgery, and made me feel good about asking any questions. Before my intraocular lens implant, I couldn’t see at any range. It was awful. Now, it’s amazing. I’m so grateful.”
Judy Eidemiller, Bellingham “I chose Northwest Eye Surgeons for my LASIK surgery over other providers because of the convenience of being close to home and their outstanding reputation. After meeting the staff, I felt totally comfortable and confident in their skill and experience. They are eager to answer your questions, and put you at ease. There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t appreciate the luxury of clear vision. It’s remarkable.”
Kim Fine, Woodway “The reassuring and pleasant way everyone treated me made it all very easy and just truly a miracle. You have given me a whole new way of looking at everything - the colors of the trees, the sky, my garden - everything. I can read again... hurray! Thank you.”
Elizabeth K. Dore, Patient “As a physician, it was very important to me to have confidence in the skill and experience of the medical team performing LASIK surgery on my eyes, and to be assured that they were using the very best, the very latest, technology. I found both at Northwest Eye Surgeons, as well as the personal care that I value as both a physician and a patient.”
Mark Anderson, M.D. “My patients depend on me to keep their best interests in mind when I refer them for further treatment. Northwest Eye Surgeons provides excellent patient care, accurate diagnosis, appropriate treatment and timely follow up. I appreciate their respect and confidence in my abilities to do follow-up care when I can, and my patients take comfort in that. It’s enjoyable for me to experience successful results with my patients, and Northwest Eye Surgeons’ co-management policy provides that opportunity.”
Joseph A. Sifferman, OD, Seattle “It is absolutely amazing to see without any glasses or contacts. You are a truly gifted surgeon who not only gave me great sight, but kept my eyes very healthy.”
Rebecca H. “Although I sadly no longer work for Dr. Talley-Rostov, as I’m now in a different specialty, I often see mutual patients who have only wonderful things to say about the results of her surgeries. Not only are they excited about their visual results, they always mention what a sparkling personality she has!
When my time comes to have refractive lens exchange, I’ll be counting on Dr. Talley-Rostov to provide me with cutting edge lens options and surgical technique. I’ve never known another physician so completely at the forefront of evolving medical technology.” Serenity Hewett, Seattle “…WOW! HOORAY! I’M A HAPPY CAMPER NOW! WHAT A DIFFERENCE A NEW LENS MAKES!...I knew parts of my vision were missing; I just didn’t know to what extent. Seeing colors naturally instead of through a yellow lens is really great. As the cataract forms, I didn’t realize I was looking at everything with a yellow hue. I thought our house here was a light green. Nope, it is a very light brown…And wearing make-up is a whole other story. I must have had some strange combinations in colors…I haven’t driven at night in years! Previous to the surgery, when driving at night the glare from oncoming traffic made me feel like I didn’t fit in my lane and it seemed as if oncoming traffic was in my lane coming directly at me. It was too scary to drive. Now I can see without the glare and drive comfortably at night. YEA!…
B. Olson, Oak Harbor “I can now read without a magnifying glass and am very comfortable driving my 32 foot motor home! I had most of the cataract procedure done near home and some eye measurements were done in Seattle. I can see very well!”
W. Lanka, Sequim “Wow! I can see again!! I’ll be really glad when my other eye is ready to have surgery. The staff at NWES was friendly and professional all at the same time — explained every step as we went. Great experience. I’m grateful they were so very good at what they do!”
B.Olsen, Port Townsend “Visian surgery has made all the difference in the world for me…I was not a candidate for other corrective surgeries. With Visian I’m now able to see without any lenses at all – removing all the hassle of dealing with lenses that constantly hurt my eyes, didn’t fit right, etc. This is a new kind of freedom! From day one I had the best customer service…there was respect, professionalism, a team environment, confidence in your expertise and it appeared a genuine caring for your patients.
