Background: -4 myopic, had contacts and glasses since 12 years of age
I decided to seriously consider LASIK at 28 years of age and went around to a bunch of centers that provided this service. My initial consultation with TLC made my decision easy. The entire staff made me feel unbelievably welcome to their practice and answered every single question I had (no matter the question and sometimes after hours). The value of their service holds immeasurable value, especially when dealing with something as important as my vision. Recently moving from NY and finding out they had an office there also helped.
Dr. Stelzer is a consummate professional, patient and very knowledgable. He managed the pre and post-operative process. Dr. Aran performed my iLasik surgery. I could instantly tell he had tons of experience and am grateful he did a super job with my eyes. Luisa Rivas was my consultant at the practice. She answered any questions with a smile and assisted me in financing the procedure. Joanne, if it was not for you my first impression of TLC could've been like all the other initial consultations. Thank you for influencing my decision to choose you guys!
All in all - staff is superb, from the front desk to the surgeon. Everyone seems genuinely happy to work there and it translated directly into my experience and surgery. I would personally recommend any close friends and family to TLC Coral Gables without hesitation.
