I decided to go to Dr. Roxana SIMIONESCU, for an ophthalmological consultation. I mention that my wife and I went to the consultation. Following the consultation and the analyses made at the clinic, we clearly understood what problems we have, how to treat them, what we will have to consider for the future. We are thinking of a long-term partnership to solve the problems diagnosed and to keep eye health under control. The attitude of the attending physician was professional, dedicated to the patient, as each patient wants:
PROFESSIONAL EXCELLENCE! The behaviour of the clinic staff, with whom I had contact, was also high. We highly recommend it!

I am very pleased with the performance of Dr. Simionescu Ruxandra,whom I thank in this way! I also thank the anesthesiologist!
I am equally pleased with the kindness of the medical staff,but also of those at the reception!

In short: a true professional!
Dr. Simionescu Ruxandra recommended the cataract operation that I had for a long time, in both eyes. I received all the explanations regarding the need to replace the lens, bilaterally
I followed the recommended therapeutic behavior and showed up at the clinic as scheduled for the two interventions
necessary (I hope that I behaved quite well during the operations)
I recently finished the program of postoperative controls. I can say at the end that I am fully satisfied with the result, with the medical staff and especially with the attitude of Dr. Simionescu, to whom I am deeply grateful and for whom I have all the respect!!
I will continue to be Dr. Simionescu's patient (with the hope that I was an OK patient). Sincerely,
Niculescu G.

From the first interaction with the Clario Clinic staff, I appreciated their professionalism. The first consultation was very thorough. Thanks to doctor Ruxandra Simionescu, I had the conviction from the beginning that she is the doctor who will restore my sight.
As a wearer of glasses since the age of 6, although I wore two pairs with large diopters, they no longer helped me. Not even an ophthalmologist gave me hope, saying it was a birth problem. But now, at 61 years old, I thank Dr. Ruxandra Simionescu that I was operated on both eyes at intervals of one month and I feel excellent!
A clinic "like outside". I have been a patient of Dr. Simionescu for many years. I have recommended both you and the clinic to all my friends and family.

Nov 18, 2024 - Staff particularly attentive to details. Thanks to the professionalism and kindness of Dr. Simionescu, I left this clinic today with all the answers and specialist explanations I needed to be able to choose between different lens options, in order to perform the cataract removal surgery I am facing here soon. So far at Clario I have found top quality medical services. I will come back with a new review after receiving the results of the medical intervention. Dec 31, 2024 - I am back with information about the medical status after the intervention performed on Dec 13, 2024 on the left eye. Honestly, I'm also afraid to convey how good I feel, lest I somehow lose my eye 🙂 the new trifocal lens... and what accuracy...! I am very much looking forward to the surgery on my right eye, an intervention planned by Dr. Simionescu on 17 Jan 2025. I send many thanks to Dr. Ruxandra Simionescu for all her dedication and professionalism. Great doctor! I recommend with all my heart! Happy birthday CLARIO team!

Thank you Clario!
Doctor Ruxandra Simionescu together with the whole team proved to me that they are true professionals!
Thank you all for your involvement and I sincerely wish you as many professional and personal achievements as possible!

Very professional and practical online scheduling process, as well as online signing of mandatory forms. The consultation was very comprehensive, and Dr. Ruxandra Simionescu is an excellent professional, with a lot of patience and attention to details, I am grateful to her for the timely identification of the condition, for the explanations given, as well as for the exact determination of the necessary glasses.

My husband had cataract surgery on both eyes in this clinic, at Dr. Ruxandra Simionescu, who guided us in choosing the type of lens. He followed exactly the prescribed treatment with eye drops and did not have any kind of problem, not even a slight redness, he did not feel pain during the operation or any discomfort afterwards. Respect and gratitude for the work done by the entire team!

Special professionals, involved, with a lot of common sense, close to people and for people! I felt it in this clinic! We have been going to this clinic for many years, to Dr. Simionescu. I was impressed, almost every time, by the availability of the medical staff to provide explanations/information! Dr Ruxandra Simionescu is a HUMAN in the truest sense of the word... She is tireless in providing explanations and looking for the best solutions. At the optical department I interacted with a wonderful, perfect lady, with a lot of patience and professionalism she explained and helped us, every time, to choose the most suitable frame/lens and we never had any problems! Beyond the prices, which are slightly peppered ... but comparable to the prices of ophthalmic services in other clinics in Bucharest and a small incident, necessary to be remembered (I say) ... everything was superlative, every time! I remember about our little incident because I believe that, being aware of certain possible situations, they can be prevented and thus things can change... At a previous appointment I left slightly (more) disappointed by the attitude of the nurse who was assigned to help/teach my child the process of handling contact lenses ... which he half did. I won't go into more detail, but it wasn't professional, and my recommendation is to make sure that the patients of your clinic leave with all the "lessons" learned ... especially when it comes to children/teenagers! What she didn't do then, Dr. Simionescu did now! ... as I said, a perfect MAN! We sincerely thank all those with whom we interacted and who contributed to our well-being! We wish you all the best and happy patients!
I am very satisfied with the services provided. I recommend everyone to call when needed. I particularly recommend Dr. Ruxandra Simionescu, where you can find understanding and empathy. I suspect...

At first I took my daughter to Dr. Ruxandra Simionescu, and later I became her patient as well. It's a place I recommend without any hesitation, and that's because here I found a team not only of professionals, but also a team of warm, humane people to the same extent.
I recommend Dr. Simionescu because she explains with great patience and understanding all the problems you have! In addition, he feels that he knows what he is doing and has a lot of experience.
