3 weeks agoDr.Rahal is an excellent physician very dedicated and knowledgeable. I’ve been taking my father to him for the last 7 years for his Macular Degeneration. He has the best bedside manner I ever seen in any doctors. He cares so much about his patients and always takes his time to explain everything to you. With his assistant Amy who’s super nice they make a fantastic team 👌 I wish we had more doctors like him.

2 months agodr. Rahal calmed me down upon first learning of my diagnosis of macular generation. he explained that since we found it early, there was no vision loss or scaring. he told me as long as I continue to get the shots as needed My vision would be protected. Of course I go see him religiously. Not only is he an amazing doctor, but he is an amazing human being. Patient, informative, kind with a great sense of humor. he is my hero
