Getting Started in Ophthalmology
My interest in ophthalmology started really young. My father is an ophthalmologist, my mother is a physician as well, and they used to work together. So my exposure to surgery started at a very young age, certainly as a family member of two physicians. And it really just developed from there. Going into medical school, I was really interested in surgery to start off. And ultimately what happened is I looked at just about everything else to make sure that I wasn't going to follow Dad. But in reality, it turns out that it combined to everything which inspired me. The interest came out of microsurgery, which I liked immensely. The ability to maintain relationships with patients over multiple years and sometimes even generations was particularly appealing. And then the final piece of it, which I really, really liked, is it allowed me to then expose my children to something that potentially may become something they enjoy when they grow up.
Well, the community's everything. I mean, my father has been here for 50 years now, and so at least we recall, or he certainly recalls, when it was farmland everywhere. And he was very happy being the local eye doctor and being able to relate to patients. So our community is everything, whether it be here in our Buoy location or in our Greenbelt location, and even the patients that we serve in our Rockville and in Tyson's Corner offerings. It really means a lot for us to be able to kind of reach out and be part of that community.
Today the team at Greenbelt were on point. Dr Nancy was running a little behind but Mikias, Lorraine & Calais handle the customers with ease & great poise. They smiled and did not buckle under the pressure of the office running behind. Great job Greenbelt team at Solomon’s Eye!
Dr. Solomon is an excellent and caring doctor. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made me feel comfortable throughout my treatment. Highly recommend!
This is an excellent clinic; Dr. Solomon is great! Very professional and thorough! The staff is courteous also, giving great customer service!
I did not visit the Bowie office, but the Greenbelt office. The staff is very friendly and professional. Their equiment is state-of-the-art. The receptionists are friendly and professional. Technician Chris and Dr. Siddiqui were friendly and professional.
My wife and I received the highest quality eye care that was provided by outstanding professionals that took time to answer all questions and resolve all issues related to a variety of vision issues.
