Unfortunately, my sentiments are pretty close to the earlier review, but let me lay out my experience so you can decide for yourself. I had a stye on the underside of one of my eyelids which had callused and, according to my optometrist, not going to heal on its own. I asked UPMC first (also my insurance provider), and the earliest time they could find an optomologist who could perform the surgery would have been a month & a half away. My optometrist referred me to Everett and Hurite, so I gave the nearest one a call. I told them my issue, and my referring optometrist, and they said the optomologist/surgeon could see me at the end of July, about 3.5 weeks in the future. I specified that my optometrist had said the stye would need to be lanced and drained, and so the diagnosis was done and I just needed the surgery. The office reception said the doctor needed to see me first, but then she could do the surgery. The day of, I took a scheduled sick day off work (ironically, I'm an essential worker too, I make eyeglasses as a lab technician, but there's nobody to cover for me unfortunately), I arrived only 5 minutes early, sat in the lobby for a bit over half an hour (episode of a home renovation show finished on the TV, to make waiting pass the time easier), had a nurse perform a reading acuity test, struggle with a digital scope which I can't remember what it was for (it was unrelated to the stye), and a couple other things. THEN, the optometrist shows up, basically says "Yep, that's a stye," squeezes it a few times, and then informs me that she doesn't have time to drain it today and schedules me for another appointment a week later. I paid the $80 co-pay and the doc's office got more from my insurance, just to confirm what I had already told them and my optometrist had already diagnosed, so that I could lose a second day of work. The week later, I came for the surgery, this time for real. The wait was much more brief, they used the digital scope to check my eye again (but didn't struggle to make it work this time, or administer the reading test), and then they were ready for the surgery. They put a mask over my face and injected a numbing agent several times, and tried to keep up a conversation with me as they performed the surgery to distract me from the fact that my eye was open and I couldn't really blink. I think they worked with expediency. There was no need for any stitches, just a gauze eyepatch that looked less Pirate and more Phantom of the Opera. I tried to pay my bill immediately, they said they would mail it to me; as of the time of writing it just arrived this week, to the tune of about $150 (my health insurance paid an additional $250). $75 of the charges was for an "XTRNL OCULAR PHOTOG," if that's a photo they took I never saw it and they didn't offer to share it with my optometrist or PCP. My rating attempts to balance how I feel about the time I spent on two visits which I feel could easily have been done in one, balanced with the fact that they did get the job done. It has healed well, and I am grateful my eye is back to normal. read more

I called and scheduled an appointment, gave my insurance information to the scheduler who verified they accepted. I called my insurance company and confirmed the doctor and facility were in network and got a referral. I was called from the office that my appointment needed to be canceled and rescheduled and the next available was 2 months out. I alreadyed waited 4 months but ok. Showed to the appointment and was turned away because they wouldn't accept my insurance. I asked why when this was verified at scheduling? The receptionist could only say i was told no. I asked why they didnt call me before hand? Why didnt you verify my insurance before I showed up and wasted my time? She said i dont know, i dont do that. I asked to call her billing department and she said theres no department, just people who work from home. I asked if they had a phone number and she did give. No one would tell me why they wouldnt take my insurance and waiting 6 months for this appointment to be told then. Absolutely ridiculous. The receptionist had little to no knowledge and could only offer me a sticker for my trouble. Then 3 days later i received and automated text stating it was time to schedule my next appointment. This place is a joke. I cant speak for the doctors but the office staff are costing you time and money. read more

Most pointless exam of any kind. Ever. Saw Dr Rath for an exam and was sent on my way. Had to call the office at least 3 times to try to find out the results. They kept sending me to a portal that wouldn't open so I finally convinced them to mail me a copy of my diagnosis, which they did. So now I have a bunch of medical terms I have to look up but NO PRESCRIBED TREATMENT! What's the point in going to any Dr. if they tell you what's wrong with ( you have eczema, heart disease, high cholesterol, etc.) you but don't suggest any remedy. So now I've had an eye exam but don't know the health of my eyes, if they're going to get worse, if I'm going to have further vision problems, and worst of all; what I am supposed to do to try to help my issues get better, if possible. HORRIBLE! read more
