Dr. Ganiban is a great and knowledgeable retinal specialist. He treats all of his patients like they are his friends. His office is run like a well-oiled machine. His staff is understanding, patient and efficient. When I enter hisShow more office, I am greeted with a smile which make me feel very relaxed. The other patients talk with me about other matters besides our visual afflictions which makes the waiting time go buy very quickly. At the end of all of the tests the doctor explains your progress in an understanding manner. We I leave I feel satisfied and happy.
I’ve been a patient of Dr Ganiban since 2003 after it was discovered I had a branch retinal occlusion in my left eye! Since I’ve lost most of the sight in my left eye, I know he is concerned and careful to protect the sight in myShow more right eye! I trust him and his ability and knowledge to do just that! His staff and office workers are all very nice and helpful as well! Dr Ganiban knows what he is doing and I recommend him whatever your problem may be!
After completing his residency, Dr. Ganiban pursued advanced Fellowship Training in Diseases and Surgery of the Retina and Vitreous at Louisiana State University – New Orleans, where he served as Chief Fellow and as an Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology. He is a member of the Sigma Xi National Research Society, the American Society of Retina Specialists, a Fellow of the American Academy of Ophthalmology, certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology and he is a member of the New Orleans Academy of Ophthalmology. Dr. Ganiban’s ophthalmic research projects have included studies involving intraocular drug delivery systems, the use of silicone oil in retinal detachment repairs and various vision restoration therapies for patients with Macular Degeneration.
Dr. Ganiban is an Adjunct Clinical Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the Florida Institute of Technology, where he performs extensive research with an emphasis on creating new medical devices. Dr.Ganiban recently developed a new device that enhances efficiency in retinal surgery and comprehensive eye examinations, by enabling hands-free scleral depression, known as the Ganihand. In conjunction with the world’s largest ophthalmic medical, pharmaceutical and surgical device company, this cutting edge device is being developed for use by eye physicians in the United States and all over the world.
Along with his colleagues at Bascom Palmer Eye Institute in Miami, in 2005, Dr. Ganiban was one of the first Retina Specialists in the U.S. to begin treating Macular Degeneration patients with intraocular Avastin, a cutting edge treatment that has improved the vision and lives of many patients who suffer from the “wet” form of Macular Degeneration.
Dr. Ganiban was born and raised in suburban Philadelphia, PA, where his father practiced internal medicine for over forty years. His wife, Patricia LaFleur, M.D., is also an Ophthalmologist, specializing in cosmetic and reconstructive eyelid surgery, Restylane Skin Treatments, and Botox Injections. The Ganibans have two sons and they regularly attend church. Although they have varied interests and commitments, the Ganibans make family time a top priority.
Dr. Ganiban makes time for tennis, swimming and competitive sports. He is a triathlete and has competed in seventeen marathons, including two Boston Marathons and four Florida Iron Man 70.3 mile events– a grueling endurance race where participants swim 1.2 miles, bike 56 miles, and run 13.1 miles.
The Ganibans enjoy gourmet cooking – particularly French, Creole and Cajun cuisine. Dr. Ganiban is an avid reader of history books and fiction, and he is presently writing a medical/thriller novel, that he hopes to complete in the next couple of years.

Reviews
It was a very professional and knowlegable visit. Very thorough in explaining to me the condition of my eyes and how to keep the effort in returning them hopefully and prayerfully to normal. Thanks
Dr Ganiban is a great doctor and I would definitely recommend him to others.
As always the doctor was excellent, did not rush through my appointment and answered all my questions.
LOVE Dr. Ganaban and the retinal specialists in this group! The staff is very friendly and the Merritt Island location is convenient and newly reconfigured for their specialty eye service. I spent half the time in this office as I normally do at the Rockledge location!
Alway a good experience.
Good, I have another appointment on March 4th
Always a great experience with Dr Ganiban.
The best retina specialist ever. very knowable and informative. caring and considerate. Thanks for being a great Dr! and staff!!!
I appreciate the convenience of the Merritt Island office, scheduling is much better than the Viera office, wait time was about 30 minutes, but once they call you back it moves quickly. Dr. Ganiban takes time to listen and explain things.
Dr Ganiban is an amazing doctor He treats patients well and listens to what I had to say as far as issues i had. He is easy to talk to and truly cares about his patients.
Dr. Ganiban is the greatest - always takes time to explain everything to you - very kind and caring - he’s the best!!

Doctor and staff were very nice! They gave lots of information about my eye condition and answered all my questions. Very grateful for Dr. Ganiban!
Very good. Clean and bright
I swear by Dr. Ganiban and his medical skills. He saved my eyesight in my right eye nearly 12 years ago. I have recommended him to other with eye issues.
I like the Dr a lot. It's always such a long wait to be finally seen. Everytime!!!
All persinel are pretty nice except the one who took my eye photo seemed to be trash talk about my right eye condition. But I understand her.
Dr Ganiban is always personable & friendly. I've had him as my retina specialist for some years now. He keeps a watch on things and keeps me advised on what to expect and remind me that he's there for any emergencies that may pop up. Very thorough.
Excellent
Incredible experience from checking in to checking out. Professional. Caring. Informative. Every office should take note of how you handle things. Dr. Ganiban and staff should be proud
Everything easexcellent
Patient woke up Sunday morning and was unable to see clearly. Monday being a holiday, patient called first thing Tuesday morning, after consulting with Dr. Ganiban an appointment was scheduled for the same morning. Dr. Ganiban has always had my best interests in mind.
Dr. Ganiban is the best; period! As a result of the care and procedures conducted by this practice I still have vision. Each visit is marked by a friendly and professional process where my health is evaluated, and sustainment recommendations are provided. I've been Dr. Ganiban's patient for many years now and I have no inclination of trusting my eyesight with any other person.
Excellent physician. Always a great experience.
An hour and a half wait
