I recently consulted with Douglas Buxton about my prospects for
LASIK surgery. Dr. Buxton gave me the most thorough examination I
have ever had, on his state-of-the-art equipment, and I waited
with great anticipation for my surgery date to be set. However, he
honestly explained to me that since I am legal to drive without
glasses and can read without them too, I might want to forgo the
surgery and just continue to use the glasses occasionally and basically, I wasn’t really the perfect candidate for LAISK. I had been looking forward to the surgery, but I was much happier to know I'd met an honest doctor, someone who cared for my well-being more than his own bottom line.

Laser vision correction may be scary at first sight, but when you are thoroughly examined by an eye surgeon who then takes the time to explain at length the surgical procedure, you feel in control and confident. The combination of the new advanced iLASIK bladeless technology and Dr. Buxton’s surgical excellence is what we call a window of opportunity that nobody can let go by.

My husband and I wanted to express our gratitude and appreciation to you for not only your extraordinary medical expertise, which saved him from what, had been several days of constant torment; but for your compassion and kindness as well. We can think of no finer tribute to your father's legacy than your contributions toward the advancement of the field of ophthalmology and your daily dedication to the care of your patients. With Appreciation and Gratitude.

Dr. Buxton has an unusually personable manner that made me feel relaxed and confident. When I wasn't sure about what letter I saw on the chart, he took as long as was needed to make sure my prescription would be exactly right. He really is a perfectionist. I couldn't be more pleased with my glasses that I purchased from his optical shop

Dr. Buxton's extensive eye examination gave me the assurance I was under the care of the right eye surgeon. His thoughtful and comprehensive clinical explanation gave me the confidence that I look for from my doctors. As a result, my son is a patient of his now, too.

My friends say “you look so good”. My husband is responsible for the natural lift that botox gave to my brows. He is the only doctor that I would trust with a botox needle near my eye to perform a non-invasive periocular cosmetic procedure. My husband’s “The Good Doctor” reputation is so outstanding within our tight knit circle of family and friends that that even his own brother, George Buxton and cousin, Pablo Quirno allowed him to do their LASIK back in the 90’s. Both achieved complete spectacle independence and have excellent vision today. I doubt my brow lift will last 10 years so I plan to be back in three months for a touch up!

Dr. Buxton cured me of my blindness. I was grateful to have such a dedicated doctor to coordinate the diagnosis and treatment of my complicated and painful eye problems. Thank you for helping me with this whole episode and for taking my emergency call on a rainy Sunday night at 11PM. You are a rare breed. It is nice to discover that there is still a generous and kind doctor in this managed care world. God Bless the dedication that Dr. Buxton has for his patients.

I have been a patient of Dr. Buxton’s for two years and I feel so fortunate to have found such a committed, knowledgeable and experienced eye doctor in New York. He is extremely competent and his expertise and credentials are second to none. In addition, his calm manner and genuine interest in each patient gave me such a sense of ease and comfort. One thing that separates Dr. Buxton from other doctors is the professional and positive office environment. There is an underlying buzz about the office - a feeling of calm reflected in patient’s knowledge that they are seeing one of New York’s best doctors. This positive atmosphere also carries through to the professional and positive attitude of the office staff. The customer service and patient friendly practice environment is a direct result of capable doctor and Dr. Buxton’s office is a prime example of this.

Dr. Buxton has the most extensive line of designer eye and sunglasses that I have ever seen in a private office. It was so convenient to have my exam and then have access to such a high end optical shop on premise. I think it is essential for doctors to carry a full line of retail products and I was very impressed with the stylish display cabinets in his waiting room. I am not a candidate for LASIK but I always refer my female clients to him whose eyes are in need of laser vision correction. My clients also love how he can dimish their crow’s feets with botox.

Dr. Buxton didn't do my LASIK for me. I had LASIK done by another NY surgeon on our company eye vision plan who was not LASKIK board certified and he didn’t deliver optimal results. After my surgery, I went to Dr Buxton for a 2nd opinion and his concern and care for my irregular corneas has given me great peace of mind. I have now told all my colleagues at work to make sure that they go outside our plan and to only have LASIK performed by a certified surgeon. Dr. Bux is one of a few in town who is board certified. In fact, he is quadruple board certified! All the education and teaching awards hanging on his office were extremely impressive and I now know that I am in the hands of the right eye for me.

I am so happy with my results. I found the iLASIK bladeless procedure that Dr. Buxton performed at Diamond Vision to be safe, accurate and virtually pain-free. If you are tired of cleaning contact lenses or defogging your eyeglasses, excellent uncorrected vision is in sight with Dr. Buxton! Imagine. Believe.

Dr. Buxton rocks! And, I think it is super cool that he is marketing his practice on Facebook. I am his #1 fan big time.

Dr. Buxton’s laser vision correction procedure completely changed my life. I don't have to worry about contact lenses or glasses anymore. Whether I am working out early in the morning, or going to a late night movie, I can just go and live my life!

Thanks for my new eyes. Each day is a new experience and it's only getting better. I have no regrets and only praise for my eye surgery with you.

I underwent an Iris reconstruction repair under the skilled hands of Dr. Douglas Buxton. The care that I received from the moment I entered Buxton Eye Surgical Group was outstanding. The Buxton Eye team that assisted Dr. Buxton was totally professional, thoughtful and caring. I was very frightened not just with the upcoming operation but fearing that my 41 year old corneal transplant was in jeopardy. The surgical skill of Dr. Buxton and his team was remarkable. I just had to let each of you know how pleased I am with the care, skill and compassion that I have experienced at Buxton Eye. Please be assured of my gratitude.

Dr. Buxton: Your hands are doing the work of God. Everyone in my synagogue is praying for you as we believe you have a seat next to God doing his healing work on Earth. Thank you for saving my eye and for performing my trauma surgery at 1:30 AM this past week.
