''Dear Professor Uriel Shapiro! I wanted to stop for a moment and thank you from the bottom of my heart. I came to the surgery with many concerns and fears, and you managed to give me a sense of security and calm. From the very first moment, already at our first meeting, I felt that I was in the best, most professional, and most caring hands there are. Thank you for your patience, for listening, for devoting your attention, and for making me feel that someone saw me and not just the medical problem. Thank you very much for your dedication, precision, professionalism, and warm attitude. It was a great privilege for me to meet a special person like you!

''Dear Prof. Shapirer and Simi,
We wanted to express our deepest gratitude for the guidance, care, and treatment we received throughout the entire process with our daughter, from the initial consultation to the strabismus correction surgery.
Prof. Shapirer, from the very first meeting, we felt that we were in the best possible hands. Your professionalism, patience, and the way you explained every step of the process gave us tremendous confidence and peace of mind, which is not something to be taken for granted when it concerns our daughter and a surgical procedure.
Beyond the professionalism, what was especially important to us was the way you treated our daughter. The approach you took with her, the patience, the sensitivity, and your ability to adapt to her age, to speak with her at her level and make her feel secure — turned what could have been a very stressful experience into something much more pleasant for her and for us as well.
Throughout the entire process, we felt that we had someone we could rely on, that we were receiving clear and honest answers, and that professionally, our daughter was in the best possible place. As parents, there is no feeling more important or reassuring than that.
And to our dear Simi, a great thank you to you as well for your availability, your response to every question and inquiry, your help with everything that was needed, and the warm and kind treatment throughout the entire journey. You were there for us in every surrounding matter, and that certainly made the process much more pleasant and straightforward.
We conclude this process with great appreciation and gratitude, and above all, we are glad that we chose you to accompany and care for our daughter.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts ❤️

''I came with my two-year-old son for a follow-up examination with Prof. Shpirer. My son wasn't very cooperative, but Prof. Shpirer was very patient and pleasant! Even when I apologized for the behavior, he wasn't bothered at all and said it was perfectly fine and tried to complete the examination as quickly as possible to make my son comfortable.
It's pleasant to be with a doctor who treats with dedication and professionalism!
Naturally, I recommend and will continue to visit

''Professor Shafreer was highly recommended to us by one of the best doctors in Florida, USA, who treated my son. When we moved to Israel, we immediately made an appointment with Professor Shafreer, and we were indeed impressed not only by the good service but also by Professor Shafreer's knowledge and professionalism. When we are at Professor Shafreer's for examination, he answers all our questions without giving the feeling that he is rushing to the next patient, which is very rare in Israel from our experience. We travel from Jerusalem, which takes at least an hour and a half. It is worth the journey.

''Prof. Oriel Spirer has been with us for two years, since Arad started wearing glasses.
We came for the examination and left with a big smile and a sense of relief. Beyond his impressive professionalism, he has an exceptional approach to children - calm, accommodating, respectful, and reassuring.
He explained everything in a simple and clear way, both to us and to the child, gave a sense of confidence, and patiently answered every question.
Even the child, who usually fears doctors, cooperated happily, which says it all.
I wholeheartedly recommend him to parents looking for a professional, humane eye doctor with a big heart.
It's simply wonderful to meet such people in the medical system.
