Best Experience Period
I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Thiagaraja. Everything from his bed-side manner to his explanation of the services provided, and most importantly the actual work done, was absolutely top-notch. I cannot imagine a better doctor, a better staff or a better experience.

Exceptional Surgeon!
Dr. Thiagarajah (Dr. T) is one of the most exceptional surgeons with whom I have ever had the fortune of meeting! Not only is he professional, knowledgeable and warm, but his surgical skills are beyond compare. As a fellow physician, I tend to hold other physicians to a very high standard. To say that I was selective when choosing an oculoplastic surgeon is a huge understatement. Dr. T far exceeded all expectations. Not only are his results amazing, somehow he is able to accomplish perfection without inflicting ANY pain on his patients. My experience with Dr. T is not unique as I am sharing this review on behalf of myself, as well as handful of my colleagues. As stated initially, Dr. Thiagarajah is exceptional!!

Professional, personable, and highly skilled
Every interaction with "Dr. T" was positive. I am extremely pleased with the results of my surgery. My peripheral vision has noticeably improved, and I no longer look as if I were tired all the time. Dr. Thiagarajah and his entire staff made the entire process a good experience, from initial evaluation to surgery to follow up visits. I recommend him highly.

Outstanding Oculoplastic Surgeon
Dr Thiagarajah is an excellent surgeon. I had a repair for the removal of a sizable melanoma right by my eye, and you can't even see where Dr Thiagarajah did the repair. I am so grateful for his expertise. He also takes the time to explain and listen to my concerns. The entire staff was courteous and helpful and his facility is excellent.

outstanding!
Dr Thiagaraja is truly the best of the best. So often you see famous people in movies that have obviously had plastic surgery and don't "look quite right". That was my biggest concern, but Dr T did exactly what I had hoped for and I look like myself. I am 100% thrilled with the results. Dr T is a true artist, professional, skilled, informative, helpful, polite nd friendly throughout. you will NOT find a better plastic surgeon for your blepharoplasty. Truly outstanding!

Amazing Physician
Dr. T is such an amazing doctor! I was having an issue with my eye and it was late on a Friday. The office was CLOSED on Saturday and he is so caring that he came in on Saturday (his day off!) and opened the office just to see me and reassure me that I was ok. He is a 5-star doctor not just in his knowledge and expertise but even in his bedside manner. A+!

Caring and excellent surgeon
I was referred to Park Avenue Ocuplastice by Omni Eye specialists. Dr T tightened a tear duct and corrected my droopy eyelids due to age. I followed all the post operative suggestions and had no problems at all. I was very pleased with the results and the post operative care. I recommend Dr. T without any reservation.

Dr. Thiagarajah performed a Ptosis and Blepharoplasty on both eyes. When I went in I had no idea what to expect. After the procedures healed I asked him to tweak one little area and he did it without reservation. I love the results. He is very easy to talk to. He and his staff make you feel very comfortable. When ever I told people who did my eyes they all said that is who they were planning on using. He's an artist and a true professional. I'm so happy I had the procedures done. I was surprised how much my vision improved. Thank you Dr. T.!

Dr. Thiagarajah performed ptosis surgery on one eye and blepharoplasty on both. I chose to work with him because of his reviews and due to my impressions after our first visit. Also, I felt comfortable with the fact that he was well equipt to handle any of the rare problems that could arise. He was extremely thorough in his medical evaluation and clearly explained what I could expect. He also authored a book for patients to detail the procedure, etc and this was very helpful. I had a good deal of postop swelling and inflammation that first week, not unexpectedly, and he wisely suggested I do a course of steroid to address this. It helped considerably. The best piece of advice he gave me was to just let things heal and , sure enough, things settled out beautifully over time. He is truly excellent at his job and his art and I would use him again in a heart beat and recommend him to those I care about in my life.

Dr. Thiagarajah spent a quite a bit of time with me trying to get me over being so anxious over a growth on my eyelid that was thought to be skin cancer. Part of my anxiety was due to wanting to know the steps that would be involved as I had dealt with previous skin cancer on my face and was shocked afterwards (It all healed fine but my perception based on what I as told prior simply did not align). In this case, he merely snipped the growth and the biopsy came back that all was fine. I appreciate his compassion and the time he spent. Thank you

Unbelievably the best doctors visit over ever had, Seriously! I had a cyst cut out if my eyelid and I was nervous that it was going to be painful because of my previous experience at Denver health. Denver health jacked me up! So I had to go elsewhere with a doctor that knew what they were doing and luckily I found Dr.T. thank God for doctor T. Believe be it or not but having a cyst cut out if my eye lid by Dr. T was not painful at all zero pain. Quick and fast. Very gentle. So thankful. Thank you doctor T! Keep up the good work!
