I am a patient of Dr. Eizabeth Siderides. When I moved from NY to Conn., a family friend had recommended her. This past December I had cataract surgery on both of my eyes, within a week of each other. Dr. Siderides was exceptional during all stages of the process. Thorough exams and explanations were given at every stage by Dr. Siderides and her medical support staff. The surgery on each eye was a complete success and my vision has not been this good since I was a teenager. I highly recommend Dr. Siderides and Stamford Ophthalmology.

Dr. Lauren Schneider is one of the most outstanding specialists to whom I entrust my care. She is intelligent, highly skilled, warm and accessible, and always a pleasure to deal with; she makes one feel as though he or she is the only patient with whom she is dealing, answering all questions and concerns both patiently and clearly. Specifically, she successfully cured my severe myopia/astigmatism (of about 60 years’ standing!) via painless and uneventful cataract surgery 3.5 years ago, after which I still am enjoying perfect vision!!! Every examination before and since that event has been careful, solicitous and informative. Also, the support staff deserve a shout-out for being polite, professional, friendly, and accommodating. I can’t recommend this doctor, and this practice, strongly enough.

I am so pleased with the results from cataract surgery which was performed by Dr. Schneider. I was very apprehensive about the surgery and Dr. Schneider was extremely helpful…she answered all my questions (which were many) and was so conscientious with the measurements that I am the envy of my friends who have also had cataract surgeries…from different doctors. I strongly recommend Dr. Scheider for her professional, kind, meticulous, and amiable manner.

I have used an ophthalmologist in Manhattan for over 45 years, even though I have resided in Westchester County for the last 37 years. Upon receiving the diagnosis from that doctor that I needed to have cataract surgery, it was now time to seek an ophthalmologist outside of the city, closer to my home. After doing online research and referral calls, I happened upon Dr. Lauren Schneider and I could not be more pleased. I have had surgery completed on both eyes with multi-focal lenses and I am no longer using glasses – PERIOD! I am ecstatic at being able to see both distance and close up as I work with numbers and briefing papers every day – all without glasses! Dr. Schneider is a true professional. Her explanation of the surgery process and post-op was clear and concise. Her follow-up was both timely and compassionate. Most important to me, at the very beginning she was very patient in taking her time to explain the choices one has with this type of surgery and in responding to my questions. Overall, a great experience and I would highly recommend Dr. Schneider for cataract surgery and as one’s ophthalmologist.

MD Pribis was phenomenal!! She was super attentive and answered any questions I had regarding my treatment. She took her time during my appointment and I didn’t feel rushed or like I was just another number to her. I would highly recommend her!

I came there after hearing good things about the practice. I had cataract surgery 2 years ago from a doctor in Queens NY and just wasn’t fully happy with the results. Dr Pribis examined me and it was very thorough. She explained to me that the surgery that was performed was done properly and said the doctor did a great job and there is really nothing that can be done to correct the things I’m not happy with because of other factors with my eyes. The reason for the 5 stars is Dr. Pribis explained everything to me. She answered every question for me and listened to all my concerns which I never received from my original doctor. She is very knowledgeable and understanding which gave me a sense of comfort. Highly recommend Dr Pribis and the facility to anyone who has any eye concerns.

Forever grateful! My family and I have been coming to this practice for over 20 years. We unfortunately are all myopic. When my kids were young, they saw Dr. Wolf who was kind and supportive. As they became teenagers, they saw Dr. Pribis for contacts, as I did. She is a joy to visit! Her professional demeanor wrapped in warmth and care is a constant. She advised us on getting the perfect fit and introduced us to contacts that may have helped curbed the progression of my daughter’s myopia. When she gave me my diagnosis of cataracts, she referred me to Dr. Siderides. It is now over a month since my cataract surgery and I can report perfect vision. For someone who has been severely nearsighted since third grade, I cannot express the joy I feel every morning when I wake up and can see! Her surgical expertise and fine care has made my dream come true.

I love this practice. I’ve treated with Dr. Pribis and Dr. Schneider, but my family and friends have treated with most of the other doctors there as well. In short, they make you feel like you have a really caring, very competent, expert specialist family member who is taking care of you. Everything is very clean and very professional, but it isn’t a cold practice where you feel like the doctors are just doing their jobs. Here, you feel like you are special, regardless of which doctor you are seeing. Finally, since a lot of a patient’s time is spent with the non-doctors, I have to compliment them on their hiring. Their staff and assistants, whether the billing people or the people who do the tests before you see the doctor, are great – friendly and very helpful with everything. I wish all of my doctors’ offices were like this!

Dr. Schneider is a compassionate physician, and, she is quite skilled in her area of practice. These traits, combined with her confidence in her abilities, in my opinion, makes for the ideal choice of a clinician.
