Michelle M. Maeng, MD, FACS

I appreciate Dr. Maeng's diagnostic and surgical skills that helped resolve my problem with double vision. After I had cataract replacements, I still could not see or read at a distance without some double vision. She and her team ran tests and determined I needed an eyelid lift as a critical part of my eye was covered by the lid. The surgery was highly successful and now I have my regular sharp vision back. This is a major quality of life improvement. She is good natured and her surgical team did a superb job.

Dr. Michelle Maeng has restored my life! In the past few years, my upper eyelid bilateral ptosis was becoming so severe that I couldn’t read for more than a few minutes, see road signs, movie captions, drive at night, etc. etc. I thought my visual restrictions were part of aging. Well guess what! I haven’t gotten any younger since February 11, 2025 (the date of my surgery) but my daily living visual issues have vanished. As Dr. Maeng’s biography indicates, she is extraordinarily educated and skilled. She is also very kind and has a surgical team that works seamlessly together. Thank you, thank you, Dr. Maeng.

I was so thoroughly impressed with Dr. Maeng. I saw her for a diagnosis of thyroid eye disease and eyelid retraction. Firstly, she’s brilliant. It’s very clear that she’s an expert in her field. She was able to explain my eye condition in great detail as well as offer me treatment options. She also explained why we weren’t jumping into treatments which was helpful. Secondly, I never felt rushed. She took quite a bit of time with me. Even after I left, she called me personally-because she was able to look at another test that was in my chart. Finally, her bedside manner is top-notch. She is warm and friendly and caring. At one point when we were discussing treatment options, she said if I were her sister, this is exactly what she would be doing. That spoke volumes. She is a surgeon and the
