Review №1

I went to this place to see Dr. Salter after she was recommended because of past male docs who I didnt think were empathic enough. I dont know if shes trying to keep up with her insensitive colleagues but she was terrible. I saw her for all of 3 minutes and she cut me off when trying to answer questions. She was very condescending and rude. While it is a beautiful office and the support staff are so nice and respectful, I will never go back to her. Also, the little waiting room in the back is filled with trophies or something about Shanbom. Like, we get it, youre a doctor. I did like the anecdotes from his patients. The rest seemed pretentious.

Good surgeon, but very impatient and unwilling to sit through questions. My mom may need some extra time and may want extra clarity but In my opinion he is rude. He literally walked out of the room while she talking to him. He never finished answering questions. In fact even laughed at my mom bc she asked questions she was unclear on. None of us are perfect. It just depends on what your looking for. We all have stuff we are going through, but I think we are going someplace else.

After two cataract surgeries spaced out over two years - i would highly recommend Dr Shanbom and his team. They are on top of things and actually had a good strategy from the get go to where I not only had my cataracts removed successfully but now I don’t even need eyeglasses! These folks are great and wanted to put the word out to anyone in need of quality eye surgery.

I had to have cataract surgery on my left eye. Ive always had terrible vision and I had to have surgery in 2011 on that eye that eventually results in developing a cataract. I was a bit scared and reluctant to have it done but the cataract was getting worse and I was actually seeing double vision at one point. I was referred to Shanbom Eye Clinic and I couldnt be happier! My surgery was really pain free as was my recuperation time and experience. Dr. Shanbom is a winner! He exudes confidence in what he does which makes the patient feel right at ease. He shows that he cares and he is very responsive to requests. I was skeptical at first when they said Youll be able to drive yourself to your follow up appointment the next day! but the night of the surgery I was already able to see perfectly for the FIRST TIME in my life and Im 56 years old! I healed very well and followed doctors orders to the letter and now Im excited to be having my right eye done so I can match. I will have vision like a normal person for the first time in my life. What a miracle! Thanks Dr. Shanbom and staff!

I brought my mom into see Dr. Shanbom to repair her cataract. The staff and doctor were Fabulous! Very caring, explained the problem, answered all of our questions. Best part he was able to do the laser treatment in the same visit. Would highly recommend!!!

This office has been extremely accommodating to me when I needed them most. I had gotten an abrasion on my eyeball during vacation and they were able to sneak me in the day I had gotten home. The entire staff is very professional and comforting.

My experience with Shanbom Eye Specialist was positive, from Dr.Shanbom, to all the staff who made the surgery as worry free as possible. Information was given all along the way and the outcome couldnt have been better. I appreciate the level of competence that everyone had and the trust I felt with all of the staff.

It is with great pleasure that I recommend Dr. Steven Shanbom and the very professional and friendly atmosphere at the clinic. The experience and the fabulous outcome of my resent cataract surgeries could not have been more positive. To top it off I now have 20/20 vision for the first time in more than 50 years.

The best cataract surgeon in Michigan is Steven Shanbom, M.D. I had developed cataracts in both eyes which necessitated surgery. One of the cataracts had been there for awhile and we weren’t sure if all the material could be removed. Dr. Shanbom made all the necessary preparations and both surgeries were successful. I had been wearing glasses for more than half a century and now I can see better than when I was nine-years old!The entire staff was very professional and friendly. All my questions were answered quickly and none of my concerns were ignored. Overall I give Shanbom Eye Specialist Lasik & Cataract an A+. I highly recommend them and am very grateful because they have improved the quality of my life.

I had cataract and vision correction surgery in September and have had a great experience. All questions and concerns were answered, the procedures were clear and all were done timely. I was reluctant to have anything done to my eyes but the cataracts necessitated I do and now I am seeing clearly without my contacts and couldnt be more grateful. Everyone there was professional and helpful and made the experience as easy as possible. I recommend Dr.Shanbom and his staff without reservation.

I had a great experience with Dr. Shanbom and the entire staff! I had LASIK done and previously, couldnt see further than about 6 inches from my face. Now, I have 20/20 vision and can see better than I ever did with glasses or contacts! Im so happy that I did this - Dr. Shanbom and the staff made it a great experience. I am forever thankful to all of them!! I would highly recommend Dr. Shanbom!

I had the pleasure of being a patient under Dr. Sally Murads care along with Dr. Shanbom. They are competent, ethical, caring and an absolute pleasure. I cannot say enough great things about my experience with both of them. From my consultation to the procedure and beyond they made sure that I knew every detail and was comfortable. I loved that the Drs walked me through every step during the surgery so I was never left unaware of what was happening to me. I went from legally blind to now seeing 20/15. I am beyond happy. THANK YOU!

I picked Dr. Shanbom for cataract surgery on the recommendation of my regular eye doctor who had taken her own mother to Dr. Shanbom for the same surgery. The entire experience was wonderful. Everyone, absolutely EVERYONE at this practice (doctor, staff and everyone in the surgical center downstairs) was fantastic. I dont care how far you have to travel, if you need cataract surgery or Lasik this is the doctor and practice to go to.

This review is written a little over a year after the actual experience and after some reflection I realize that it was truly remarkable. I was not the patient. My sister waswho has mild dementia needed cataract surgery as well a procedure to separate the lens from the pupil. Everything went well. The entire staff from Dr. Shanbom, the nurse,the receptionist everyone was professional, patient ( we needed that), kind and helpful.Soon I will be needing eye care and if there is anyway possible I will be going there!

I was nervous about having cataract surgery, but Dr. Shanbom and his staff were wonderful and understanding. The surgery was painless, and my vision is back! I never thought I would be able to see as well again, but I am, Im so happy and thankful for the results.

Why wait for cataract surgery?Have it as soon as possible. I was leery about having eye surgery and wanted to wait until I really needed it. That was a mistake...I could have had a whole year of vision if I acted sooner.I have been wearing glasses or contacts since the age of 3. Because of my extreme astigmatism, I was not a candidate for lasix surgery.When cataracts interfered with my vision,I followed up on a recommendation from a friend and was evaluated by Dr.Steven Shanbom.How happy I am now. No contacts! No glasses! I have 20:20 vision. The office staff are all professional and experienced.Equipment is top notch.I had my right (distance)eye corrected first. Then, two days later, I had the left eye corrected. Both procedures were painless.I would highly recommend this physician.

Dealing with near-sightedness for over 30 years, I had contemplated Lasik surgery to finally free myself from contacts and glasses. Dr. Shanbom and his staff were very professional, well organized, and exceeded my expectations on every level. I felt informed and comfortable every step of the way. The process from beginning to end was convenient and uncomplicated.

Dr. Shanbom exceeded his already outstanding reputation. His office staff are friendly he runs on time and most of all Dr. Shanbom delivers outstanding life changing results. I would not go anywhere else for my vision needs. Thanks to Dr. Shanbom, I do not have to.

I recently had Dr. Shanbom remove my two cataracts. My experience with the doctor and his very friendly and accommodating staff was absolutey more than I could have hoped for. The professionalism of the doctor and all of the staff are very evident! They made me feel like part of the family and always inquired as to how everything is with me. The actual procedure was incredible! The very next day I was seeing 20/20 and couldnt wait to have my other eye done, and I did without hesitation. I am seeing 20/20 and for the first time since I was 15yrs of age(not yesterday, lol) I am not wearing glasses for distance. Everything is so clear and beautiful. I absolutely recommend Dr. Shanbom to anyone who is considering cataract surgery.
