Dr. Manuel Del Cristo Castro Samur — Oftalmólogo · Cirugía Láser y Catarata Medellín

My life with glasses and contact lenses was exhausting. After more than 10 years, it reached a point where it was tedious and boring, and I always wanted to wake up and see without glasses. Dr. Manuel Castro's care and professionalism are unparalleled. He is a true professional in every sense, attentive and always with a positive attitude, helping those who come to his office. His kindness truly makes you feel safe and worry-free. He inspires confidence. The day of my surgery went very well. The staff at the clinic are very attentive, and the doctor's support at every moment is crucial for the patient's peace of mind. The recovery days were excellent; following the doctor's instructions, you'll have a perfect recovery. What I enjoy most about not having glasses now is not having them at all. It's a feeling like being reborn and seeing perfectly again. I had myopia and astigmatism, and now I smile every morning and am forever grateful to Dr. Manuel for giving me back my sight. It's an incomparable feeling. I will always be grateful to Dr. Manuel and his entire team who at all times transmitted that energy of positivity and security; it is the best investment of my life.

When I went to the clinic and had my cataract surgery with Dr. Manuel Castro, I felt very comfortable. They were very clear about the procedure, the doctor has great human and professional qualities, and so far the service has been excellent. Thanks to all this professionalism, the cataract surgery was a success, and the follow-up has been very good. 100% recommended.

Response and comments from Myriam Bolivar de Correa..... How was your vision before the surgery, and what did you find difficult? Before the surgery, my vision was limited, making it difficult to perform everyday activities such as reading, recognizing faces from a distance, and fully enjoying my daily routine. I felt like I was gradually losing my independence, but I was hopeful that a solution would be found. How did you feel about the doctor's care and treatment? From the first consultation, I felt very well taken care of. The doctor was kind, professional, and approachable. He patiently answered all my questions and instilled a lot of confidence and peace of mind throughout the entire process. How was the day of the surgery and the recovery? The day of the surgery was much calmer than I had imagined. The medical team was attentive to me at all times, making me feel safe and supported. The recovery was favorable, and by following the doctor's recommendations, I noticed a progressive improvement in my vision. What has changed in your life now that you see better? The improvement in my vision has had a very positive impact on my quality of life. I can now carry out my activities with greater safety, comfort, and independence. I enjoy reading more, spending time with my family, and appreciating every detail of my surroundings. Without a doubt, it has been an experience that has allowed me to regain confidence and well-being. Thank you so much for your professionalism and dedication. Blessings...

I'm very happy with my PRK surgery for myopia and astigmatism. While the first few days of recovery were difficult and my vision wasn't as good as I expected (although it's much better than before the surgery without glasses), the doctor was always very attentive and kept track of my appointments and recovery progress. After 4-5 weeks, I feel like I've reached peak recovery and my vision has improved significantly. It greatly enhances my quality of life. He's an excellent professional and person.

I had an excellent experience with my refractive surgery. The entire process was very professional, and the staff was always attentive and ready to answer my questions. The surgery went very well, and my vision has improved significantly. I am very satisfied with the results and would recommend this clinic to anyone considering this procedure.
