Yeah this wasn't a pleasant experience. I came in during a pandemic and the doctor was sniffling…read moreand breathing quite heavily. Yes he was wearing a mask and he said he got the shot, and then continued to chitchat about how his daughter attended a large gathering where 15 people later got COVID, but that his daughter didn't bc she had the shot. Not exactly what I wanted to hear when being in close quarters with someone. He honestly seemed sick. And he had open wounds all over his knuckles that were not bandaged up. They were bloody, and when I asked what happened to his hand he said "oh it's nothing, just dry and cracked." But he's a doctor and that should've been covered especially since I could see blood. I told him I'd like to continue doing my test rather than chitchat as I had lots to do that day. I got my prescription but the doc neglected to write the PD down. I realize the optometrist does this and not the doctor, but knowing that you need that number to get new glasses why wouldn't they just do that?

I've been going to Dr. Kirk for years. On my recent visit, he did not seem to be himself. I…read morearrived (an hour drive) about ten minutes early for my 10:30 appointment. The staff seemed nervous and told me they were waiting for him to arrive. I was put in a room where someone (she did not introduce herself) gave me the exam with the letters on a chart. I could hear another patient in the room next door. I heard Dr. Kirk arrive at 11:30, an hour after my appointment. He treated the other patient first. When he finally came to me, he did not apologize or offer any explanation, or even friendly chit chat as he had in the past. While waiting over an hour for him, I had had to change appointments. He gave me a cursory exam, including dilating my pupils. I had to ask about my cataracts. He said they had grown and I could have the surgery or not. The he said he could change my prescription or not. No expert opinion or advice. He was not the same doctor I have known for years and I have made an appointment with another ophthalmologist. I will not be back.
