Customer Reviews
Based on 5 reviews
"I'm very happy with my experience at ICOF, especially with Dr. Alexandra Arango. She performed cataract surgery on me and prescribed glasses for both near and far vision, and it's been fantastic. I can see much better now, and the whole process was very easy and well explained. Plus, the service was incredibly friendly. Highly recommended!"
"After losing vision in both eyes, Dr. Arango visited me at the ICOF, confirmed the diagnosis of cataract formation and, in a very clear and reassuring way, explained to me the procedure to solve the problem. She operated on me a couple of years ago and, from (almost) the first moment after the operation, I fully recovered my vision (at all distances and without the need to wear glasses at all), with the same sharpness and clarity as when I was young (I didn't start wearing prescription glasses until I was around 50). I regained the sensation of brightness, intense and brilliant colors that I had years ago. Now I can see and count, in the distance (two kilometers from my house), the tips of the star of Mary in the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona. Thank you very much, Alexandra (Dr. Arango) and your entire team for your good work."
"I want to express my sincere gratitude to Dr. Alexandra Arango Rodríguez and her entire team. From the moment I arrived at reception, the service was impeccable. I especially want to highlight the kindness and professionalism of the person who performed the initial eye exam to confirm my prescription: their work was meticulous and attentive. Dr. Arango, along with her entire staff, demonstrates exceptional compassion. Feeling so well cared for, with such warmth and professionalism, makes a huge difference. Thank you so much to the entire team for your dedication! I wholeheartedly recommend their services."
"I want to express my sincere gratitude to Dr. Alexandra Arango and her entire team for their excellent care and professionalism. From the very first consultation, they instilled confidence, a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and a great sense of security at every step of the process. The intraocular lens implantation was a success, and the result has completely exceeded my expectations: I now have 20/20 vision and no longer need glasses. I especially want to highlight their compassionate approach, their patience in answering all my questions, and the care I received before, during, and after the procedure. Without a doubt, I recommend this outstanding professional and her team to anyone considering improving their vision. Thank you for giving me back the comfort and quality of life that comes with being able to see perfectly every day."
"I'm delighted with my experience with Dr. Arango and her entire team. The staff at the center and the doctor herself are wonderful, professional, and very attentive. I had surgery seven years ago and I go to the center annually for my checkups, where they give me a thorough examination, giving me complete security and confidence. Having eye surgery was the best decision I could have made, and if you're thinking about it, I 100% recommend putting yourself in Dr. Arango's hands."
