Irving Raber's Online Review Report Card

I have been to many eye doctors over the years. I continue to see Dr. Raber here in the Philadelphia area because I feel confident in him. He is smart, energetic and he is also warm and inspires confidence; answers your questions, covers a lot of territory and when I leave, I feel good about my visit with him. That is important!

Dr. Raber is not only the best surgeon, he is a very caring doctor who puts his patients first. He has done both of my cornea transplants and I highly recommend him.

Dr Raber is obviously an expert in his field but the friendliness of his staff left a lot to be desired . . . most acted as if they were exhausted and/or bored with their jobs. None made me feel very welcome..

I am currently being seen by Dr. Raber for Recurrent Corneal Erosion. I have been dealing with it for 9+ years and have seen multiple doctors for it. I felt like I was in good hands right at our first meeting. He has seen RCE before and is willing to try other methods before resorting to surgery.

Dr. Raber has performed 4 successful corneal transplants for the treatment of kerataconus on me , starting in my 30's to date at 76 with the 4th one being less than a year ago. He is a brilliant surgeon and has staved off blindness for me. He is along with being a talented doctor, a caring and proficient professional. I trust him with my eyesight without question! He has never let me down.

The best eye doctor by far. Went to many and only he was able to diagnosis a congenital issue I had with my eyes. After two coronial transplants I was able to play golf again! I would recommend Dr Raber to anyone seeking a eye Doctor!!!

Dr. Raber is outstanding! I had DSEK cornea transplants in both eyes due to Fuchs' dystrophy back in 2010. In my case he did cataract surgery at the same time. He also did capsulotomy on both eyes later as well as diagnosing and referring me to a retina specialist for a PVD. I had follow-ups for several years but no longer need to return unless there is a problem. There hasn't been. Dr. Raber was great explaining the problem and its complications and guiding me through all the follow-up.

I trust him he is the only one able to make correct diagnosis

Clearly an intelligent and very effective physician. Extremely thorough and detail-oriented. My brother also had an excellent experience with Dr. Raber.

This is what I was told when a doctor from Harvard recommended Dr. Raber to me. He is technically brilliant and never makes you feel rushed or that you have asked a silly question. He explains things well to non-technical people and understands that a whole person is connected to the cornea he is treating. I've had three surgical procedures and he is wonderful. It is hard to get an appointment because he is so good.
