I had the pleasure of seeing Dr. jerry D’aversa. He explained in detail what had been going on with my eyes and why they were straining for the last week. He was sociable, kind, easy going , and extremely knowledgeable. Being a nurse that’s everything you want your doctor to be. I would highly recommend to anyone questioning where to go for their eye health and well-being.
The wait was fairly short . The staff was polite, friendly and competent. Dr. Jerry D’Adversa did a very thorough exam. He took the time to explain everything . I felt very comfortable and fully informed.
The best group of eye doctor’s around. Dr D’Aversa took great care of my eye problem and to this day he still continues to monitor my eyes. I would never let any other eye doctor take care of me if it’s not OCLI
Staff is friendly and helpful. Dr. D’Aversa is incredible!
I recently had cataract surgery on both eyes at Island Eye SurgiCenter. My experience with the surgeon, Dr. Jerry D’Aversa and the Center was extremely pleasant. The staff at the Center couldn’t have been more helpful and comforting to my needs and the surgical outcome was excellent. Kudos to the Administrator and his team for their caring approach to my medical needs. I highly recommend this facility.
Very friendly professional staff. Dr. D’Aversa communicates his observations and concerns very well.
Dr D’aversa and his staff were fantastic!
We really like this practice. Dr. D’Aversa of OCLI was recommended by a surgeon friend of mine who used OCLI for his cataract surgery. After years of going to a local practice, I switched to OCLI when my first cataract surgery was wildly unsuccessful and the practice seemed indifferent to my problem. The OCLI office staff is professional yet friendly. Wait time in the office is usually minimal. Dr. D’Aversa successfully performed my second cataract surgery. He is professional and caring in his manner. I trust his medical judgment.
Have been going to Dr. D’Aversa for many years now, Dr & the office staff are friendly and professional. This last appt Elizabeth guided me through the examination with a very sweet manner.
Dr D’Aversa was thorough in his exam. The office was courteous & efficient. Very clean sterile environment.
Dr. D’Aversa is great. He’s quick, gets to the point. Overall my experiences at this office have been great. Usually in and out under around 45 minutes.
Had a great experience with Dr. D’Aversa. He treated me as a teenager and as a adult — a consummate professional, very friendly, highly skilled, great optimism. OCLI in Valley Stream is great!
