A Doctor-Owned Eye Care Network Built with Quality In Mind

ECOA was started in 2018 by Dr. Patrick Higgins with a basic goal: provided consistently excellent patient care through a network of like-minded and practiced physicians

 

We believe medical practices should be physician-owned and always working to better their patients

are Saying!

“I am so blessed to have found the Retina Center of New Jersey… I experienced a very disturbing eye problem but I am confident that I have the best of care possible and am on the way to recovery.  They all treat me like family.  I highly recommend them!”

Jeanne F.

“Dear Dr. Higgins, When I was diagnosed with macular degeneration, my vision began to deteriorate rapidly. …When I walked into your office, I was impressed with the state-of-the-art equipment… There is one moment I will never forget. I was at my grandson’s basketball game and… I could actually see the scoreboard! My vision had improved! Words cannot express my gratitude. I refer everyone to you. Thank you.”

Evelyn H.

“Thank you Dr. Lauren Kallina because you make me feel so comfortable when my daughter brings me for my visits. Your compassion and care is unique for a doctor.”

Maria C.

“I have been coming to the Retina Center of NJ for the past ten years for treatment of wet macular degeneration in both eyes. Dr. Patrick Higgins is the very best…  Everyone at the Retina Center of NJ is very kind, caring and knowledgeable. I look forward to seeing Dr. Higgins and the staff. I truly appreciate their expertise, gentleness and caring.”

Yolanda S.

“The moment I entered the office, I was greeted with a very friendly and professional staff… Dr. Higgins… took time to explain to me what the diagnosis of my condition meant and what he would administer as treatment options. He not only lifted my spirit but gave me hope and encouragement. Dr. Higgins has the best chair-side manner that I have ever experienced. .. He’s truly a rare gem.”

Gwen S.

“I was 29 years old when I was diagnosed with bilateral detached retina… I was referred to Dr. Higgins for emergency surgery. As soon as we met he reassured me that I would be OK… The surgery was performed three days before super storm Sandy… I made it through the storm because of Dr. Higgins. The man saved my eyesight…. I was blessed to have found you Dr. Higgins!”

Alexandrea A.

“Dear Drs.Angioletti and Higgins, I can’t thank you enough for your expertise that saw me through surgery and my recovery…as someone who stood on the verge of losing sight in his left eye, its restoration is nothing short of miraculous… and so I can only think of you as magicians.”

James M.

“I’ve known Dr. Louis V. Angioletti since I was 7 years old. I was born with severe myopia and an amblyopic right eye…he was able to stop my amblyopic right eye from completely going blind… I have never in my life seen any other Doctor who has as much passion and perfection in his field… I am so blessed to have such a wonderful doctor.”

Francine I.

“It was almost 30 years ago that I stumbled into the then Manhattan office of Dr. Louis V. Angioletti… this remarkable doctor has helped me maintain my sight, despite macular degeneration…
…what makes Dr. Angioletti so special is more than just his talent and skill. It is his empathy, kindness and generosity of spirit… I have never met another doctor like him…”

George J.

“…Before being blessed with meeting Dr. Angioletti, my mother… had gone to another eye doctor in New York City and had been misdiagnosed with cataracts… [Dr. Angioletti] always puts her at ease with his kind words… I wouldn’t trust my mother’s eyes with anyone else! Even with him moving from his Gramercy Park office in Manhattan to the Retina Center of New Jersey office in Teaneck, NJ… We will never go anywhere else!”
