Finally an hour or so past your actual appointment time, the doctor arrives for a 10 minute visit. This was not a one time occurrence. It happens every time and their excuse is they are short staffed, people called off. Another patient in the waiting room with an appointment at 910 was still waiting there at 950. Wonder when she got out of there! The waiting is the same at the Hagerstown office. Even though the doctors are great, I will be looking for another place for my eye care because Maryland Vision Institute cares more about squeezing in as many people in a day as they can, with no regard to the patient's time.

This office is nice and quiet and truly a "hidden gem." I recently to went Dr. Padmini Nathan's office because, I scratched my cornea and I was unable to get an appointment for an emergency examination anywhere else. Of the three offices that I contacted this one was the only one that offered me an opening to come in. Although, I had to wait until the following day it was worth it. In the interim I went to the ER, and followed up with their office the next day. My appointment was scheduled with Dr. Sydney Cooper, and I want to say, "she's amazing!" She made me feel at ease and she took my situation very seriously. She was very thorough in her examination, and with that said, she is going to follow up with my Primary Care Physician to ensure that I have lab work completed to rule out any underlying health issues that may be affecting my eye. I was so impressed because, this is the kind of continuity of care and communication amongst a patient's team of health professionals that is so needed and important. I was so thankful and grateful that they were able to schedule me for an appointment, and I knew that I was in good hands. I was happy that she was willing to take those extra steps to ensure my overall health. The entire staff and team were friendly and helpful from my initial call to the moment I arrived, and throughout my visit! I want to personally thank Dr. Cooper, Dawn, and Heidi and the entire team for making my visit so pleasant! You've just gained a new patient! Peace & Blessings!

The last place I went to, years ago, nearer my home in Westminster, featured an aging German couple who started out lacking any sense of customer service, and degenerated into outright hostility when it came down to working with insurance. So, having no clue where to start ... I walked into an "optician" shop not too far from downtown Frederick - and they only did glasses, but said they'd made plenty of referrals and got back plenty of raves for the eye exam by Dr. John. Sure enough, Dr. John not only gave me the exam, he gave full explanation of everything he was doing, including checks for health issues not directly related to vision (did you know they can spot early indications of diabetes, MS, kidney issues, and more from an eye exam??). Dr. John also answered lots of questions and worked through various scenarios on how I'd actually use the glasses (e.g. computer screen, skiing, whatever), to come up with a good solution. Plus it's no fuss - the exam fee includes all my follow up visits while I'm trying out some contacts. Recommended.

My husband was diagnosed with glaucoma but Dr. Hodges told him he was out of treatment options so his vision became severely degraded. Dr. Hodges seemed kind and personable but dismissed our concerns and told us there was nothing that could be done. Out of frustration about our continued vision loss, we set up an appointment with another ophthalmologist for a second opinion. She disagreed with Dr Hodges' assessment - she immediately changed eye meds, provided lots of options, and much more hope, for saving our vision. Already we are seeing better, but unfortunately, you can't turn back all the existing damage. We wasted much too much time and we lost way too much of our vision trusting Dr. Hodges.

Airy Eye Care, so I can definitely say that my…read moreeyeglasses' prescription was very good, the best I've had in several years, because my glasses are still serving me well. I don't feel as if I need new lenses already. The doctor explained to me, in a way I could understand, why my previous prescriptions weren't suiting me. I appreciated his taking the time to do that for me. Choosing the frames is always difficult for me because of the strength of my prescription and because I have a narrow face. I usually end up looking at children's frames! But Mt. Airy had a nice selection of frames that fit my face, and a special line that could be adjusted to fit. That pair has become my favorite pair (I bought two pairs of glasses). The doctor reviewed my order before it was filled and made a suggested change to improve my close-work glasses that actually meant I was spending less money. In other words, they were motivated to give me the right glasses, not just make the most money. I'm very happy with the care and product I received. My only criticism is the office was very small but I think they just moved so I'm looking forward to visiting them again when the time comes to get checked again so I can see their new place.
