Daniel Klapper, MD

Doctor Klapper is the only eye doctor I have ever been to since moving to NYC. I can not say enough good things about him and his practice.
I go annually for an eye exam. I don’t have any issues. He does a thorough job of testing my eyes for every disease.
Once a few years ago I had a case of pink eye or some other horrible symptoms due to my allergies. I called his office. They put him on the phone so I could describe my symptoms. He called my pharmacy with a prescription and I picked it up. Within a day or so the problem was cleared up. I don’t remember if his office even charged my insurance.
Doctor Klapper takes his time with you at each visit. He listens to you. He remembers you, your individual history, and life situations. He’s just a special kind and caring family man dedicated to his practice. He also is very skilled as a professional. He’s well referenced in his field.
I highly recommend him to anyone that needs an eye doctor.

I’ve seen him for years for eye checkups related to a disease I had. He is the NICEST doctor ever. Competent, soft-​spoken, patient, helpful. This is what health care should be like, if there is such an ideal. Very pleased to recommend him.

I have been going to Dr. Klapper’s office for YEARS. We’re talking 15+ years.
And for YEARS… they have been telling me that the prescription for my right eye was 4.00, and the left eye was 4.75.
And for YEARS… I have wondered why everything is always a bit blurry. I’ve wondered why I can’t see signs from far away when I’m driving. I’ve wondered why I used to see the leaves on the trees, and now I couldn’t. I’ve wondered why I’m always squinting throughout the day.
Well, this week I found out. It’s because my RIGHT eye is 4.75, and my LEFT eye is 4.00…
So, for YEARS I have been wearing the wrong lenses in the wrong eye.
I just called their office and asked them what my prescription was. They wouldn’t tell me over the phone. When I said, «My prescription says that it 4.00 on the RIGHT and 4.75 on the LEFT. The Technician said, «THAT’S CORRECT»…
No, Dr. Klapper’s office. That is NOT correct. And it never has been.
Thanks Dr. Klapper and all who work there. For at LEAST 7 years now, I have had blurry vision and strained eyes. You may have done permanent damage to my eyes.
I will never set foot in your office again, and hope others who read this do the same.

Yep, we all agree — Dr. Klapper is the best. A very nice man who knows what he is doing. He was my eye doctor for years before I left New York, and nine years later I moved back and he is my doctor again. You won’t be disappointed.

Best doctor since Clooney played one on TV. Charming, warm, humble– pretty much all of the good adjectives. Go see him. He’s the best, Jerry, the BEST.

Dr Klapper has been my doctor for five years. I was referred to him for a condition by my long-​time ophthalmologist. He is the epitome of the quiet, distinguished professor. Knowledgeable, patient, concerned to make you understand everything, in his always respectful almost hushed voice. The office reflects his demeanor, well run, never full, rarely a wait longer than 15 mins. With my condition, which would only become serious if it was not taken care of I needed a doctor I could trust for the long haul. Dr Klapper fits the bill perfectly. He also takes my insurance; a little surprising for such an upscale locale just off 5^th Av opposite the Natural History museum.

I saw Dr. Klapper when I first moved to the UWS. I had no recommendations and was not sure where to go. After finding a great review online I decided to see Dr. Klapper for an eye infection. That was two years ago and I will not see anyone else again.
Dr. Klapper is kind, patient, and professional. IThe care I received during my visit and Dr. Klapper’s knowledge at my appointment gives me the piece of mind when dealing with any eye issues. His office staff is also efficient and professional.
