Stefano did my cateract surgery. It was worst med experience of my life. I was 1st patient Mond morng. He was over hr late & angry & fussing @ nurses when he arrived. After surgery I had severe excruciating pain all day. @ followup visit next am, this was my chief complaint. They weren’t concerned about it. Their med records for that & other follow up visits never mentioned it. 1 month later I made them do another exam. Immediately, without explanation, they got me an emergency appt with a retinal specialist who said I had post vitreous separation, retinal tear and retinal separation. This specialist tried to repair the tear but left me with a huge floater that obstructs my vision now 2 yrs later. After 2 years of treatment, I’m left with worse vision than before. I have epiretinal membrane & a macular pucker. My brain can’t bring vision from both eyes together. Johns Hopkins says that there is nothing that can be done w/o significant downside risk.
I would never recommend Stefano b/c of this &unconcerned follow up care.
