I want to take a moment to recognize Dr. Kitay for the exceptional care he provides. I have been a patient of his for years, and I have always appreciated the professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care he shows at every visit. Last year, I had cataract surgery performed by Dr. Kitay, and I felt completely confident knowing I was in such capable hands. Dr. Kitay is extremely attentive, focused, and takes the time to listen. I never feel rushed during my appointments, and he always makes me feel comfortable and reassured. Trusting someone with your eyesight is a big thing, and I have complete confidence in him. Over the years, our visits have developed a wonderful balance of professionalism and warmth. I always compliment him on his beautiful ties because he is truly one of the best-dressed doctors I have ever met! He laughs and tells me he has to keep his "A-game" going, which has become a fun part of our appointments. Those small moments of connection help create a relaxed atmosphere and make each visit a positive experience. I have seen many doctors throughout my life, and Dr. Kitay truly stands out. He is not only an excellent ophthalmologist but also someone who makes his patients feel valued and cared for. Riverside is fortunate to have a physician like him. Thank you for having such a dedicated, compassionate, and skilled doctor as part of your team.
