Dr. Paolillo is an excellent doctor. I'm very satisfied with my care. He is a very sweet and gentle doctor. At my very first eye appointment he found that I had cataracts. I scheduled my appointment for surgery. I had one eye done one week and then the other one the following week. I can see better than I ever have before. I would recommend him to everyone.

Glad that I followed my neighbor's advice when he said, "See Paolillo -
he's the best!" Following my surgery (after 56 years) I'm able at last to get along without the extreme correction I'd always required.
No impersonal assembly-line medicine at Doctor Paolillo's - but one-on-one care from a gifted surgeon!
Thank you Doctor!!!
