Respectful, thorough, professional from first interaction at reception all the way through to surgery and post care. I am very pleased with both Dr Josephson and his staff in the Fairfax office and the Bethesda surgery center.

My last visit Dr. Josephson dropped me as a patient and said I would have to see someone else when I informed him that I was having someone else do my eye surgery. He showed no concern for me as a patient and barely covered the exam results with me.

Dr. Josephson successfully performed my cataract removal and lens implant. His use of technology to enhance my vision is excellent and his assessment of a previous similar surgery offers hope for some correction not achieved the first time. He personally called to check on me following surgery.. His professional and personal approach makes him very accessible and pleasant to deal with. I highly recommend him and his practice.

I do not usually write reviews, but Dr. Josephson is amazing!!! He made the whole cataract surgery and lens replacement a very enjoyable process ( not what one would ordinarily say about any type of surgery). I cannot thank him enough for what remarkable eyesight he has restored for me!!!

Dr. Josephson was amazing!
He was very professional and is well educated. He knows what he’s talking about and was able to prescribe a treatment plan that accounted for multiple factors, that weren’t found by other doctors I visited.
Highly, highly recommended.
-My experience-
I had a severe corneal abrasion(scratch on the eye). It was very painful to the point of screaming by a single movement of the eye. I also had watering eyes for about a month.
I went to a doctor(Not Dr. Josephson), and was told that my watering eyes were due to an infection. I was prescribed antibiotic eye drops and had my eye washed with iodine.
-Went home and the pain didn’t get better. My eye sight started deteriorating to eventually 20/100(Before, I had perfect vision).
After seeing him, he explained my entire position with my eye(for one not being an infection) and prescribed a treatment plan for me.
Now my eyes are perfect and I have 20/20 vision, no pain.
I feel very thankful for him.

I recommend Dr Josephson to anyone. He is very professional and focused on the welfare of his patients. Cornea transplant was 100 percent successful. Nervous at first but his encouragement helped me get through it.

Doctor Josephson took cataracts out of my Down Syndrome brothers eyes recently and it couldn’t have gone better! He was wonderful at explaining the surgery and the aftercare! I highly recommend him!

Dr. Josephson is very professional, kind and caring. My surgery went well and I was not afraid because he explained everything and answered my questions. He called that night to check on me.
The staff is very professional, helpful and courteous.
My eyesight is now 20/20. I would recommend Dr. Josephson to anyone who needs eye surgery. I am so grateful I found him.
