This was my first visit. I had an exam. She is very nice, professional. She showed me scans of my eyes and what she was looking at and where my issues are. So, it was very informative also. I easily recommend her.

Awesome experience from start to finish! Office staff were super friendly, initial exam was easy because the woman walked me through each step. Dr. Salam was thorough and taught me a lot about my eyes and how to protect them. Daniel was so helpful with picking out frames and explained lens options for me multiple times. Thank you all!

Have so much respect for Dr. Salam. She is extremely knowledgeable and thorough. Although I no longer live near Clifton Park, I still would make the trek up here to see her and will continue to refer my family and friends here.
