Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Rude and unprofessional
This doctor did not seem to have even basic knowledge regarding nearsightedness (myopia). He suggested I wear my very strong distance lenses for reading, which is not only inappropriate but can lead to unnecessary eye strain. He seemed more focused on making condescending and nonsensical remarks rather than doing his job. He deceived us by telling my father to bring me in for a LASIK surgery evaluation, only for us to discover that he does not even perform LASIK. My father was referred to him by some of his friends, but after our experience, we all concluded that this is not a proper place for eye care. He lacks basic manners and cannot converse properly with patients. His practice seems more like a show rather than a legitimate ophthalmologist’s office. If you are seeking a proper ophthalmologist that cares about patients, look elsewhere.

Will not recommend him, lousy service
He runs a dysfunctional front office with his wife as an office manager. He doesn’t call or read his emails.

Dr. Naseh completed my cataract surgery last week with great success. I was on the go under 1 hour and returned to work the same day. Surgery was quick and everyone who attended to me was wonderful. Thank you Maryland Eye Institute!

Reading these reviews mirrors my experience- some are very good and some are very bad. I have visited this practice 3x over the last several years. The first time Dr. Naseh was warm and friendly. Subsequent and recent visits, there was a long wait time even with an almost empty waiting room. This may not have been anyone’s fault, but when I finally saw the doctor he barely let me ask questions while he explained what he thought was going on. Of course I want my doctor to be confident in my condition, but he insisted I had several issues which I have never been diagnosed with and not experienced symptoms for. Very confusing, disappointing and frustrating as I previously thought I had found a great practice.

I absolutely recommend Dr.Naseh!I feel very fortunate to have been received as a last minute urgent patient upon my discharge from the ER. Dr. Naseh was warm and welcoming as well as patient and respectful as we tried to work through "wrapping our heads around" my vision problem. He didn't rush and was very respectful of my issues. I am grateful to have met him and look forward to working through my vision issues with him. The technician was also very professional and comforting. Thanks Dr. Naseh.

Just getting around to praising them for the amazing job they did with my mom during her eye surgery. She was very anxious before getting there due to her cataract. Dr. Naseh and his staff treated my mom with respect and patients. It will be almost six months since she had her cataract surgery and she is still talking about her positive experience at Maryland Eye Institute. Thank you.

Staffs and technician are nice and genuine, but a horrible experience with Dr. Nashe! He’s arrogant! Wouldn’t give you a chance to explain your condition. We asked him for a recommendation, he said “as a doctor, I don’t give you recommendations. You have to make your own decision!” I wonder why I would go to a dr. who can’t provide recommendations??? We have 3 mins with him and left A good doctor should spend at least 15 mins on a patient. We felt like we got robbed by a Dr.! Don’t go there...

Dr. Naseh is extremely professional, a perfectionist and an expert in his field. He takes the time to explain options, procedures, potential risks and benefits. He treated like a family member - with honesty and care. It's obvious he takes pride in his work . He definitely delivers good results. In addition, his staff is kind, courteous and customer service oriented. Thank you, Dr. Naseh - you made a huge difference in my life. I can see clearly now!

My husband had a cataract surgery performed by Dr. Naseh. He was excellent the first time but didn't have a good experience with his second eye. But the doctor was not prepared to listen to us which was a bit disappointing.

Greatest experience I had at a doctor's office. Dr. Naseh is a top-notch doctor who diagnosed me with early glaucoma three month ago. He has been treating my eyes since then and I am confident that I am in good hands. Today I was greeted by a nice lady who mentioned that Doctor had an emergency and was running 20 min. late. I didn't mind the wait. I was called in after 10 minutes and doctor apologized for the situation. He has a wonderful and gentle manner. I get that some doctors see emergencie

Dr. Naseh has been our opthamologist for about 10 years. Both I and my wife have needed emergency appointments, and we were immediately seen by Dr. Naseh who rapidly diagnosed our conditions, provided the correct treatment and followup.
