Our deepest sympathies to your whole family.
Dr. Fares was a great doctor and an outstanding person. We were her patients for over 20 years and every time we saw her she was always warm, kind and super knowledgeable. She had a great sense of humour as well and was easy to talk to. She will be missed dearly.

My family and I were patients in Dr. Faten’s clinic. We always had a great treatment with an amazing smile on her face. She was an amazing person before she was a doctor. Her friendly attitude always goes beyond any formality between a patient and a doctor. She will be really missed.
Dr. Fares was a fantastic doctor who I had the pleasure of being a patient of for many years. Her professionalism mixed with her sense of humor is my last memory of her. My condolences to her family and those that she looked after through her years of optometry.
