Complex retinal detachment repair - Dr. Bhattacharya used some new pneumatic retinopexy technique I'd never heard of. Three months post-op, my vision is 20/25 despite other doctors saying I'd need multiple surgeries.
Follow-up after corneal transplant: Dr. Bhattacharya remembered my medication allergies from 18 months ago without checking files. Adjusted my steroid drops personally and even called me that evening to check on reaction.
My autistic son's first eye exam was traumatic until Dr. Bhattacharya used colored lights and puppet show techniques. Got accurate prescription without tears - now my boy actually asks when we're visiting 'the light doctor' again.
Sudden vision loss during pregnancy - Dr. Bhattacharya coordinated with my OBGYN to diagnose pregnancy-related central serous retinopathy. His conservative management approach avoided medications and resolved completely postpartum.
Floaters and flashes had me panicked. Dr. Bhattacharya did the most thorough retinal exam I've ever had (even checked peripheral retina with scleral depression), then drew diagrams showing why I didn't need worry. Three years later - still no issues.
