She took the time to explain what was going on with my eye. I was at a walk-in and need to be seen by an Ophthalmologist ASAP. It was a Friday afternoon, about 3 PM. The office was great, she saw me immediately and began tx. Does not get much better than that. The office is very busy at all times, and there is a process if you need a regular exam, but that's the way of busy practices. Anyone who sees Dr O will be getting excellent care.

Hello all, looks like I am looking for a new eye doctor…read more I had my annual appointment with Middlesex Eye Physicians on Saybrook Rd this morning. I have been going to them every year since I returned to CT after 20+ years in the Air Force and never had an issue. Until today. Now they primary purpose to to collect money from you no matter what, not provide quality optometry services to the Middletown area. Apparently they need to keep your credit card on file now with them. In fact, they won't even see you anymore if you do not consent to that. As I was told by the desk supervisor, this is company policy and there are no exceptions. There was a manager in a higher position there, but they refused to come out and talk to me. So they cancelled my appointment. Many may think that isn't an issue, but I do. They have no need to my card when I see them once a year and have always paid all invoices on time. This is how your information gets stolen. My family has been going to this outfit for literally generations. No more. I will not be blackmailed by them just to be seen by their docs. I won't be using them anymore. I dont promote boycotts but am asking folks to be aware of your personal information and do what you can do to protect it. Don't give it out if you don't need to. I am recommending family and friends to reevaluate your relationship with Middlesex Eye Physicians and decide if you want to be abused by this extreme company policy. I have enjoyed seeing Dr Yap, but your company won't allow that anymore. So, any recommendations for an optometrist would be appreciated. I thank you all in advance and will return to my lurking.

Are you on Medicare? Are you in need of a standard eye exam so you can get new glasses? Did youR…read moreInsurance company list them as approved for eye test and state what your co-pay would be for the exam? Well, patient beware, you might find the billing practices of these folks to be devious. Let me explain. To start, I will comment on the good. Very modern facility, modern equipment and the medical staff are polite and friendly. If you are in need of Ophthalmology services, this is probably a good facility to work with but I couldn't verify since I was there for a simple eye test. However if your in need of a simple eye exam by a Optometrist and you're on a medicare program BEWARE, YOU MOST LIKELY WILL BE OVERCHARGE! To start, you will find the receptionist has an attitude. Not friendly, physicaly out of shape, no smiles, no room for discussion if you have a concern. It's her way or the highway. You ask to see a manager or some authority, you out of luck, it stops with her. There are not managers or directors for either of the facilities. It's the receptionist...period. So I need an eye test so I can get a new eyeglass prescription. My insurance listed this office as a approved provider and states a co-pay ($15.00 in my case). However this is an Ophthalmology facility and eventhough I am seeing an Optometrist for a standard eye text, they code this as a "Specialist" visit. I note that I'm not seeing a specialist (Ophthalmologist) but a Optometrists. Doesn't matter. She tells me I can go elseware if I don't like it. It's years end, I need to use the benefit ASAP or lose it so I decide to go through with the exam, pay the specialist co-pay ($45.00 in my case) and have my insurance get them to correct to overcharge. Now while I'm waiting for insurance to follow up, I then get an invoice from these guys stating I owe an additional $35.00. Why, because unlike other optometrist offices, these guys pull out components of the exam and bill them as separate services. So my standard eye exam from this office became an higher fee exam ($45.00) plus a $35.00 charge for "a Refraction for the routine exam". So what was described in my insurance plan as a $15.00 co-pay has become an $80.00 expense. I've had four other eye exams provided under medicare, all of them fully inclusive of the services and requiring a $15.00 co-pay. I changed my insurance company this year and my past eye doctor was not in network. No problem, I simply go with who the new office the insurance allows. In this case, BAD DECISION! Based on my experience I am of the opinion these folks are knowingly abusing the system with their billing practices. I suspect most folks don't want to deal with fighting this so they accept the abuse and pay the additional fees. So let me do you a favor...be warned. IF YOU PLAN TO DEAL WITH THESE FOLKS, DON'T RELY ON WHAT YOU PLAN STATES YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR, YOU BEST GET VERIFICATION OF WHAT THEY WILL BILL YOU BEFORE YOU MAKE AN APPOINTMENT.

The first woman who did the preliminary testing of my vision was very professional and pleasant. I saw the gorgeous, Dr. Meghan Kelleman and she was awesome. She took her time and explained things to me thoroughly. She was very good at making sure I was comfortable during the eye testing and she also has a great sense of humor lol. These are all some of the things I look for personally, that make me want to come back to the same medical professionals. Loved it! *The office is very clean and easy to navigate through. *If you want to see Dr. Kelleman, she usually only has afternoon appointments available.

The moroseness and despondentness of the staff is palpable. There is no viable waiting room. You are shuffled from closet to closet. God forbid you have a jacket or a hat, you will have no place to put them. I have never been more uncomfortable at an appointment. If you have an opportunity to go elsewhere, do it. Only redeeming thing is that the doctor was kind and seemed to know what she was doing. There are a lot of weak links in the chain, however.
