Dr.Habib is absolutely amazing! She did a reconstruction on my lower eye lid after Mohs surgery. She has a wonderful bedside manor. She is kind and easy to talk to and her skills are above and beyond. I am so happy that I found her! I would highly recommend her.

I had quite a bit of stress about finding a surgeon for my upcoming procedure. Visited another surgeon twice and just could not get comfortable about how my appearance would change, because the discussion on that was curt and unhelpful. All that changed with Dr Habib. I knew immediately that I mattered as an individual to her. She listened intently to me. She understood my reservations and gave me the confidence to move forward. Four months after my surgery I consider my results outstanding. Staff is awesome too. I’ve already recommended Dr Habib to two others- each of them had similar great consultations and have scheduled their surgeries.

My husband’s first visit to Dr. Habib’s office was very pleasant. Dr. Habib was nice, attentive, and considerate. She examined my husband’s eye lids and explained her treatment in a detailed manner. Her assistants and staff were also friendly, respectful, and helpful. Both my husband and I felt comfortable and welcomed.

I wish every doctors office was run as perfectly. Arrived 15 minutes early as a new patient to complete paperwork. Was seen catchy as scheduled. I found Dr. Habib ti be very attentive to my concerns and she gave me a drop sample ti dry for my drooping eyelid situation. Assured me that I didn’t have a medical concern. Best news, the drops are working. Would recommend this practice highly.
