Florida Retina Institute

"Staff always friendly and helpful. On my last visit, Ryan did the initial examination. He was great! Saw Dr. Leon-Alvarado for the first time. Although he did not do my eye operation 2 years ago-he didn't work at Florida Retina then, he did the follow-up this week. Answered all my questions and explained his answers with pictures of my scans so I could understand fully!"

"Went to this clinic for evaluation of a detached retina. Dr Houston recommended emergency surgery at the clinic, I accepted and so far it seems all is well. It only took 20 minutes for completion of the surgery. Thank you Dr Houston and the staff. I highly recommend this facility."

"My mother is a patient of Dr. Mav. He is a wonderful doctor and is helping her so much. Very professional and informative. The staff are great as well. She has nothing but the highest recommendation for choosing this office and this physician for your care."

"I have been a patient of Dr. Mavrofrides for about 9 years. Even though I have moved away from Orlando, we drive over 2 hours to FRI because I wouldn't trust any other doctor when it comes to my vision. The entire staff, office and technicians, are exceptional. Dr. Mavrofrides was able to diagnose a rare disease that was causing me to lose sight. He studied it until he found a possible treatment. We tried it and it worked! My sight continues to get better. FRI is dedicated to their patients."

"Dr. Leon-Alvarado did great, painless emergency laser treatment for my torn retina today! No injection, just numbing drops, and I felt zero pain. While everyone is different and some might need a numbing shot if the laser causes discomfort, he said this is rare. I was very nervous but Dr. Leon-Alvarado’s excellent, professional and calming manner plus the expertise and calming manner of the whole staff—-from Vanessa at the front desk to Sebastian and all the techs—-I’d give them 10 stars if I could. Highly recommend."
