Usually eye exams stress me out, but everyone made me feel very comfortable throughout the exam. Every employee was kind, professional, helpful, and upbeat. My scheduling process was good.

This was actually a second opinion--I didn't trust a previous ophthalmologist, the stunningly arrogant Lisa Bennett--and Sward, unlike Bennett, took the time to consult with a corneal specialist.

Even with a referral I vet health care professionals more carefully than American Presidential candidates investigate vice presidential candidates and Paskowitz definitely passes muster. I also like his chairside manner, he has no problem talking to me with respect and at my intellectual level. But they don't dole out doctorates (at real universities at any rate) easily so almost all ophthalmologists are qualified, it's the staffs they employ that make the real difference. I'm being treated and watched for the very earliest stage of glaucoma, so I want to remind everyone that yearly eye exams are very important. There's a number of serious conditions the annual eye check up can catch that can be prevented or significantly forestalled with early detection. The few remaining optometrists in private practice (see Kind Optical for example) on average will do a more personable and careful job than the big chains, but any yearly exam is better than none. I actually went to another eye surgeon for the laser treatment to relieve my high interocular pressure, but some of the staff he has working for him are just too disrespectful for my taste. One actually scolded me for answering my phone "claiming" to be "Dr." de Silva and further chastised me for not answering my phone previously. It was one of those offices that address all patients, regardless of age or title, as if we are all children being taken to see the principal. The staff here is much better, especially once you get past scheduling the initial office visit. There are a few locations, and the first phone call goes to some central phone bank, the downtown location is where I go and once I got the phone number for this location (which isn't actually easy to find) scheduling got a lot easier. I hope they maintain at least some of their COVID19 policies because I really like not being close to other patients while waiting. It took me years to figure this out, but bring your own sunglasses or blue blocking glasses so you don't have to walk out with their flimsy single use ones after pupil dilation.
