Dr. Dudeja credits his family with instilling a passion for medicine in him at an early age while growing up in India.  Dr. Dudeja describes ophthalmology as “one of the most rewarding specialties,” adding “being able to restore vision, the gratitude of patients and satisfaction it provides cannot be expressed in words.”  Ophthalmology, he says, requires “tech savvy,” which “allows for a good mix of medical and surgical services.

Dr. Dudeja belongs to Surgical Eye Expedition International, a nonprofit organization that provides volunteer ophthalmologic services to disadvantaged individuals worldwide. Married with children, he loves outdoor photography.

Hi, I am the daughter of (PHI removed). We were definitely impressed with the doctor's knowledge. We would highly definitely recommend other patients to him and we had a great experience. Thank you.

October 02, 2024
Excellent care
October 02, 2024
Dr. Dudeja is the finest surgeon. I feel so blessed that he was able to do my cataract surgeries. I'm seen beautifully. The staff's been great. The doctor always takes a lot of time with me. He's just the best, and I've already recommended him to three different people. So I'm so grateful to (name removed) wife, for recommending him to me, and I just could not be happier with the miraculous results of my surgeries. Thank you.
October 02, 2024
The doctor treated me very well, and I would have liked my next appointment to be with him since he is the expert in the type of problem I am going through. Unfortunately I was told that he is very busy and it would not be possible, so after the treatment that the doctor suggested he will not follow up on my problem. As a patient it is very important for me not to keep changing doctors. Thank you.
October 02, 2024
Dr. Dudeja is probably the best ophthalmologist I have ever seen. I have been going to ophtalmologists all of my life since I was born with an eye problem. For this visit, the staff was professional and courteous. Dr. Dudeja was kind enough to spend a little extra time answering a question I had, and I truly appreciate that. The only concern I have is that I waited nearly an hour in the office waiting room to see the doctor. There may have been a good reason for that since Dr. Dudeja spent a little extra time with me, so I suspect he treats all of his patients the same way. I notice that Dr. Dudeja is cutting back on his office hours, and that also is a bit of a concern. Nevertheless, I will continue to see him and remain with the PIH Health Eye Care Center because they are truly the best.
October 02, 2024
Thank you Dr Dudeja and Staff. Always courteous and caring.
September 25, 2024
Doctor had empathy toward me, answered all my questions, made me feel relaxed and at ease. Highly recommend him to my family and friends
September 25, 2024
Dr. Dudeja is one of my favorite eye doctors. I have like three of them. But he really excels in listening to you and seeing that I was worried about two different incidences. And he immediately gave me a solution for them and said he would be able to actually correct one thing on a laser surgery. He told me that right away and I was so relieved. And he is doing his best to schedule it as fast as he can. So he is great.
September 25, 2024
Regardless of my early appointment time, I still had to wait a while for my turn. However, once my name was called, I was attended to fairly quickly. The staff is polite and professional and Dr. Dudeja is fantastic; he is always attentive and explains eye conditions and symptoms with patience.
September 25, 2024
Professional and courteous!
September 18, 2024
Efficient
September 11, 2024
The translator they assigned to my mother is excellent. She was very happy with the attention she received.
September 04, 2024
The new electronic way of registering by phone did not work. The new electronic tablet registering at the office is a bit cumbersome and difficult to sign our name. Also, since I take several medications, I always bring a list of what I take and my allergies/sensitivities are also listed. It takes way to long to list everything on the tablet, so the medical assistant was very courteous and accepted my list and attached it to my file. Other than the new registering issues, the office staff is always very courteous, Dr. Dudeja, and Dr. (name removed) are excellent physicians and I am always treated professionally and they are both very courteous. I am saddened by the fact that Dr. Dudeja will be retiring soon. I will truly miss him!! (PHI removed)
August 21, 2024
Dr. Dudeja & staffs are great!
August 21, 2024
The Doctor did an excellent job with my Cataract Surgery improving my vision to my right eye. And now monitors the vision on my left eye for possible Surgery down the road. In the process the Doctor explains where I stand in relation to office eye examination and consultation and keeps me appraised of my situation in a professional manner.
August 21, 2024
Very pleased
August 13, 2024
Everyone at this location is always very friendly and helpful.
August 07, 2024
Hi, oh, (name removed), the one I saw before, I saw Dr. Dudeja, terrific, and very thorough, a wonderful person, and also Dr. Dudeja, I'm not sure if I'm pronouncing it correctly, he explained everything about my eyes, and he was showing me this and your retina, your cornea, and this and this and that, and I realized he was a much better doctor than the one I had before, unfortunately, but she's not with PIH, so I thought he was great, and that's all I wanna say, and I made an appointment, he doesn't have to see me for another year, but I thought he was great, and I was recommended also by my friend Teresa, so I already knew that he was great. That's all, all right, thank you. Bless you.
August 07, 2024

Dr. Dudeja was one of the kindest men.

July 11, 2024
Awesome doctor. Seems to be very talented, very knowledgeable, very helpful, makes sure that his patient is understanding the issue and also the remedy or the fix. So I'd like to say that he's the topmost doctor that I have seen for the eye care.

The entire staff was very attentive, personal, kind, compassionate, and helpful with a very cheery demeanor and a very expeditious comportment. And most of all, it is Dr. Dudeja's intense knowledge and my great trust in him. I have enormous trust in his ability to accurately and swiftly diagnose and cut things to the chase without a lot of words. And I just have complete trust in his competence and capability and his knowledge and preventative maintenance. When you educate a customer or a patient, you keep a customer (

Satisfying
April 29, 2024
Everyone in the office was great and Dr. DUDEJA's experience, his professionalism, his expertise, and his manner of treating the patient is beyond excellent.
April 29, 2024
The appointment with Dr. Dudeja was excellent. But the ability to make it a timely appointment with any PIH doctor is ridiculous at times. You should not have to wait one, two or three months to make a doctors appointment. I know of several people who have left PIH because of the ridiculous amount of time they had to wait for an appointment or a test.
April 24, 2024
I have glaucoma and completely trust Dr. Dudeja with my eyesight.
April 24, 2024
This exam was a simple update, but time was taken to also make sure there were no impending problems.
April 24, 2024
Always the best care and experience!

February 26, 2024
Very thorough, all my questions were answered.
February 26, 2024
The waiting was way too long before I got to get in to see the doctor. And it was just really too long of a time to have to wait. I think it seems like he's overbooked sometimes, but that's my opinion. Thank you.
February 26, 2024
Dr Dudeja is great. Always answers my questions and explains everything in detail.

February 08, 2024

Dr. Dudeja I've only seen him twice, however, he ... the exam that the person did for me was fine. And Dr. Dudeja also explained to me what the cataract was all about and explained it very thoroughly if in case in the future, I would need surgery. He also said I can call if there was an emergency need. So, I felt very comfortable going to his office. Thank you very much. The service is real good. Thank you.

The doctor and his staff are the most professional provider at PIH.

Everything on my visit was perfect starting with the receptionist when I was signing in, paying my co-pay. They were very nice, pleasant, engaging. All the staff leading into the examination room, the same thing. Very engaging, thorough, very clear, very nice. And the doctor was exceptional, explained everything, gave me the comfort of knowing that he would be the one performing my procedure. Gave me all the what-ifs and the precautions and what to look for, including the very minimal risk involved with the surgery. He explained everything very thoroughly. Very happy with his service.

The waiting room was over full with patients some of whom clearly sounded like they either were or had recently been sick. As a person who has an immune system disorder this made me very uncomfortable.
