I got back in the room quickly and the doctor is who came out to get me and then he did the review of my issues right there on the spot. Talk about personalized service. He is incredibly nice, informative and takes the time to really discuss what your problems are and what the solutions are and how we're going to move forward. I like this guy a lot.

Didn't get called back until 9am. No apology or nothing, I hope a manager looks into this. It probably happens more than just this time. Or we were just the lucky ones.

However I think my new prescription was not much of an improvement. I had the prescription filled somewhere else so I have no recourse.

I was a patient of Dr. Elisabeth Lawson from 2015 to 2019, and she was outstanding. When she left,…read moreI followed her to her new practice in Cumming, but after a couple of years, she stopped practicing to spend more time with her family and continued on as owner of the Cumming practice with three or four optometrists working for her. As I could no longer get an appointment with Dr. Lawson, I've returned to Athens Family Vision and recently had an appointment with Dr. Patel. She is also an excellent optometrist, and responded very well to a couple of my concerns. She is thorough, knowledgeable, and very kind in her manner. I will continue with her and have encouraged the rest of my family in the Athens area to give her their business.

I was referred to Dr. Jing Dong and he did a wonderful job removing my cataract. However, the…read moreentire front office staff and a few of the RN's are very unwelcoming and borderline rude. On the day of our visit, we were instructed to return at 2:15 for a follow up. We arrived and the parking lot was overly full, forcing people to park in the driveway. I got out and walked inside, while my wife was stuck in the driveway because an elderly lady was confused and driving the wrong direction in the parking lot. One of the RN's was pushing a discharge patient in a wheelchair down the exterior walkway and proceeded to engage in a rude and unprofessional exchange with my wife because she assumed my wife was blocking the driveway for no good reason. My wife pointed out that the elderly lady was blocking people from entering the parking lot and then the RN got angry and proceeded to yell at my wife before moving on with her patient. I have worked in healthcare 30 years and have never had a rude or unprofessional exchange with any visitors. The fact that Dr. Dong's staff clearly are not concerned with being professional and courteous is the reason we will not return and will share our experience with others. There is no excuse for staff to conduct themselves this way at any level.

He never asked my concerns, my reason for being there, and had not read my chart. When I began to…read moretell him that I have ocular rosacea, he interrupted me and practically shouted, "You have rosacea all over your face, not just your eyes!" Had he kept his mouth shut and listened to his patient (me), he would have discovered that I KNOW THAT. However, It has only recently started affecting my eyes. He continued to interrupt me the entire time, so I gave up. His bedside manner is horrible, and I left with NO treatment plan other than to come back in a year. I will never go back because there are much better ophthalmologists out there. Once home, I read all the bad reviews on health grades regarding his lack of skill in performing eye surgery. I wonder how many of his patients had symptoms they wanted to discuss with him but were too afraid to speak up due to his dismissive, antagonistic personality. Dr. Dong, it would serve you well to listen to your patients and take a class in bedside manners.

Called Eye Surgeons and physicians several times only to be on hold…read more At one point I was on hold for over 30 minutes, called back and put on hold another 15 minutes. (Gave up!) Called on January 13th was hold for 15 minutes. Asked to make an appointment was told the next opening was on March 17th. Wow! Like the doctors but it appears business is to good to care about customer service.

Dr. Dong overbooks - many people are scheduled for the same time. My husband was once told, after…read morewaiting almost two hours, that it was a first come first serve. How ridiculous to be told that when you have a scheduled appointment. When you finally get into the exam room and the technician has done her thing - Dr. Dong rushes in says "looks good - See you in a year." Doesn't answer questions just darts out of the room. I have a few vision problems and none have ever been addressed! Time for a new specialist!!!

Dr. Dong interrupts, refuses to listen, and is condescending. I was allowed approximately one…read moreminute for my follow-up to a procedure. When I (eventually) saw him, he sat poised at the edge of his seat, facing the door, prepared for flight as soon as he circled my answers to a few canned questions. He does not speak clearly and gets upset when asked to repeat himself. He argued with me about my responses. I was scheduled for the same procedure for my other eye (roughly $1400 cash per eye) but decided to cancel and find another opthalmologist. I wish I had checked Yelp first because apparently he has a one-star average rating. Of note, I have written several stellar reviews for other businesses. This is the first negative rating I've ever written. I would subtract the one star if I could.

According to the FTC an eye doctor be it a specialist or not is not allowed to charge you for a…read morecopy of your prescription. My husband and I were charged $30 each for this. They gave me this whole spiel about how the charge was for the refraction exam. That is baloney. I had already paid $35 copay. They are doing this because so many do not purchase glasses at the office and instead go to less expensive places. They also charged us the copay which was dishonest because we didn't use the opthmolagist but saw the optometrist which should have no copay per our insurance. This group is extremely dishonest and has figured out a way to rip off seniors and are doing it with no conscious..., creating twisted explanations to get by with it.
