"Great clinic with highest standards and such an amazing, respectful and helpful staff. I did some analysis over here and I was quite impressed about the experience. I really recommend Dr. Andrei Filip as not only as a good specialist in what he’s doing but as a professional by telling each step necessary for your wellbeing in a calm and perfect way. He’s more than a doctor! As a result I’m more than happy with my experience from this clinic and I’m looking forward to come back!"

"What a joke of a clinic. First of all, the assistant was rude and made unwanted jokes and remarks at my expense - unprofessional and offensive. Second of all, the doctor didn’t give me my eye recipe (even after 1 month of repeated calls and emails) which is supposed to be something done on the spot. Third of all, that’s a sad looking clinic, I felt I was going to get robbed any second. They have a dodgy staircase which I bet it’s not up to code, and I will report this to the proper authorities. Not to mention the interior which is outdated, communist and on top of that they blast unwanted traditional Romanian music. Shameful."

"Presbyond changed my life, I feel more confident and free I was really nervous before the procedure but it actually didn’t hurt at all. It was very quick. My vision is sooo much better now Vision improved instantly. Still adjusting to not reaching for my glasses :) A Big Thanks to Doctor Andrei Filip and the team, you are so professional and your work is amazing ❤️ Whoever is reading my review, choose Ama Optimex, you won’t be disappointed xx"

"I travelled from Italy – Rome, to be precise – to visit this clinic. They adhere to all safety protocols, and the staff are friendly and professional; a lovely lady welcomed me, and the doctor provided excellent care. I’m glad I chose this clinic; previous clinics had been disappointing, but this time I’ve been lucky."
