It had no markings saying it was any kind of service dog, so I assume it was someone's pet. The dog ran around loose for a while, and then it CRAPPED all over the floor! It stunk to high heaven, and I thought I was going to barf. The room was full of elderly people at the time. I would like to know why this was allowed to happen, and would like to know why I shouldn't report it to the board of health.

No bureaucracy other than the minimum. They make you feel that they are there primarily to take care of your health issues and they are exceptionally focused on that. I came there with a self-diagnosed severe central vision loss problem and the administrative staff already acted swiftly on that on the phone by getting me an immediate appointment and I got to see the ophtalmologist superfast after prepping by the technician and the doctor spent a lot of time with me without rushing and made a spot on diagnosis (unfortunately very bad news for me) and she referred me to the best surgeon around and got me an appointment with him the next day, despite his months long booked appointment list. At the surgeon her diagnosis got confirmed and I was scheduled for surgery and treatment right away. The doctor at Arrigg Associates followed up without me asking by inquiring by phone how the visit went.. And when I got some additional issues later they were also very helpful and fast to respond. How great to have found those rare old-fashioned 'focused' and enthusiastic doctors (and all their equally good staff), we all would wish to have. I would have given them 6 stars if it were possible

I have been going here for my eyes for ears now and I must say, my last experience was awful. I…read morewent for my yearly eye check up on a Friday afternoon around lunch time. I go to check in and I am about third or fourth in line; no big deal, it's a Friday afternoon, it's right after lunch, it's bound to be a little busy, right? I arrived early just incase it was indeed busy. It took me 15-20 min to just get checked in There was only one receptionist checking patients in. To me, she seemed very unpleasant, had a look on her face which clearly showed she didn't want to be there and, was just taking her time and had no sense of urgency. There was one worker who asked the receptionist if she needed help to which said receptionist said "no, I'm good". I would have totally been alright with standing in line if this receptionist didn't have the attitude that she did. Her attitude along with taking her time really put a sour taste in my mouth. After all of that, I am sitting in the waiting room. My appointment was at 1:30. Then 2:00 comes, I'm still in the waiting room - no big deal, everyone expects to wait a bit at the doctors office, right? 2:30 comes, still in the waiting room. An older gentleman asks how long I have been waiting to go in, I told him an hour and he goes to me "I've been waiting almost TWO HOURS!" Finally @ 3:00, I get called in. I get it, doctors offices are busy, 9 times outta 10 we never get called in on time, its expected. However, it's a little ridculous that I waited an HOUR AND A HALF to get called in. After I get called in, the assistant does her thing, checks your eyes, dialates them and of course, before the check up can proceed any further, the drops that dialate your eyes have to settle in, which takes about 15 minutes. I waited over ANOTHER HOUR before I got called back in. The rest of the check up proceeds and I am all set. I checked my phone, it was about 4:15. I was at the eye doctors for THREE hours for a routine eye check up. I don't know what happened that day. Maybe they were under-staffed, maybe they over-booked. Either way, this experience put a bad taste in my mouth and I am considering switching eye doctors

I go back on everything I previously wrote. Why you ask? The doctor we'd been seeing moved on. I…read moreget a call Monday regarding Saturday's appointment. Are you telling me that the doctor just "walked" with no notice? I wish I knew where the doctor moved on to 'cause my family needs a new eye doctor now. I get a call less than a week before the three Saturday appointments (back to back) I'd set up over a month ago for myself, my husband and my son. Do you know how hard it is to book three appointments in the same block on a Saturday when your daughter does dance, your son does karate, your husband works nights and needs to sleep late in the mornings and you are running around like a nut case taking care of all of this. I booked things around these appointments because seeing the eye doctor is more important than a mani/pedi appointment or any other similar "pretty" appointments. This was the second time in less than a year that I've been "rescheduled." When I indicated this to the office she tried to "rebook" me. However, she didn't even realize she was rebooking a family of of three appointments. What was she going to do, call me three times to rebook us? So a July appointment for my family was about to turn into a September appointment to make it work for my calendar (something I'd already worked out if they'd only kept the appointments as is.) I informed the woman not to bother and that I'd be taking my family to another doctor's office -- one that actually keeps appointments. This prompted the office manager to call me back to try and resolve the situation. I'm at work while all of this is going on. I inform the office manager that I couldn't entertain the conversation since I was at work. She says she understands and lets me go. So with all of this the doctor calls. Again, he tries to keep my family there. He "agrees" to come in for the appointments as booked. At this point I start feeling like he's doing ME a favor. REALLY??? I attempt to let the doctor go as politely as possible but he wouldn't let me get a word in edge wise. I'm a receptionist. The office phone rang. I had no choice but I hung up on him. What does he do, he calls BACK and says that HE couldn't get his side in. HELLO???? This is a doctor's office -- not a hair dresser. Keeping appointments is more important than not in this business. You want to reschedule my hair appointment -- fine -- annoying but easily done more often than not. You want to rebook an overdue eye exam because you did't keep your last appointment -- not professional. Think twice -- that's all I can say.

No one asked if I had eye insurance(which was blamed on me), so in order for me to get refunded I had to file a claim backwards with both of my insurances. Several months after that I was billed a $25 copayment. Fine paid it, they cashed the check, still are sending me that bill several months after that(even though they cashed my check!) and now 1 year later I get a bill for $300.

So to even it out he made the eyelid crease on my right eyelid to match my left eyelid. Enough time has passed to heal and see the results and I'm STILL noticing my left eyelid still droopy. I notice it in the mirror, when I'm taking a picture, I feel it still droopy and it still bothers me. I notice that on my right eyelid there is some extra skin on my inner eyelid crease that doesn't match the inner left eyelid crease. It just looks weird and I'm still self conscious about my eyelids. I look closely at the pictures I take of my eyelids and notice my left one is still droopy. I was told he fixed the levator muscle but I don't think the ptosis is fixed.

My appointment was with the nurse practitioner & I may be wrong? But I've found them to be very knowledgeable & take all the time needed to explain what they are doing, if I need a procedure, why etc. Since my last visit my issue has been noticably better. So it was great to report a positive vs a negative. The only thing that I wasn't obviously thrilled about was that she decided to use the sinus camera.... Or endoscope? Anyway, it's not that it was painful... Heck, I've endured " 8" - YES 8 covid tests with one that I swear was a lobotomy in disguise over the past year. So, yes there evidently is some tissue left. Well - the spray gunk they use to numb the area & using the camera was necessary & I did my best to behave....but the 1.5 minute or so it took to complete the procedure just wasn't one of my best moments...but it was real quick.
