    Dr. O'Connor gave a very thorough exam and I received my glasses in a very timely manner. Very impressed with the medical and optical staff!

    After waiting for weeks for an appointment, two hours in the waiting room, I was given 5 minutes of…read moreface time with the Dr. who answered a couple questions and then stormed off to write me a $2,700 prescription that my insurance would not cover. He was not open to alternatives and not very considerate in helping me understand why. Not helpful. Waste of time and money.

    This was my first visit at this location, and my first check-up since 2018. (Oops!)…read more Upon my arrival, the receptionist checked all of my information, then asked me to fill out all my information on another page. Why duplicate work...? I didn't wait too terribly long to be called back. The assistant never introduced herself but got a pretty good medical history & began the process of my evaluation. After numbing drops, dilating drops, and the glaucoma test, I was directed to the exam room...where I sat, and sat, and sat, with the door open, and all of the staff chattering & laughing about former colleagues and whether or not they indulge in alcoholic beverages after a long week (or daily). Dr. Kreiger was nice enough, did the exam, told me my vision hadn't changed much, and put more numbing drops in my eyes before conducting the final test. I asked if they had dilating reversal drops and was supposed to be assured that it "wouldn't last long" and they "used the least amount of medicine possible". The numbing drops made my eyes feel fatigued & the dilation lasted for hours. (Now, the morning after, I've got a screaming headache, but it could be the change in weather, not necessarily all the work my eyes did yesterday, trying to return to normal...) I'll be interested to see how my kids fare at this location after the holidays...

The only complaint I've ever heard is that since she joined Atwal's practice the office staff messes up appointments. Dr. Schoene is a wonderful doctor!

    0 of 5 stars for Dr Karen Schoene. I saw her two weeks ago as she was a fill in for my regular eye…read moredoctor. I had a sharp decline in my eye sight in one eye. I made an appointment with Schoene as my regular doctor was away. As soon as I walked in the room the doctor was already confused and frustrated with me, literally as I sat down. She refused to listen to the patient (me), and would not let me explain why I was there. She kept misdiagnosing me with newly acquired halo effect, which I've had for 18 years. She checked my eyesight so rapidly- changing lenses on me with no time to even adjust or read- then would get frustrated that I would ask to see through the various lenses again. She talked as if she was superior and very intellectual in her mind. She talked down to me in a snide tone- "I'm TRYING to help you!"- I was not arguing or raising my voice, but she seemed to insist on confrontation. She actually interrogated me like I was a convict at one point when I told her one lens looked better to me- "You JUST SAID the other was better!" She was switching lenses so fast I got confused on which was which. The worst was obviously how she talked to me- the patient- but she insulted the staff and doctor in front of me also, which was highly unprofessional. She talked down about my Doctor- telling her helper in the room "See if she (my doctor) even bothered to do this test...". She said it very condescending, and was trying to cause distrust in my doctor. I have been going there many years, so I trust my doctor and realize this lady is very unprofessional. She also talked down about my doctors staff in front of me, complaining that the tech was basically incompetent because she dilated my eyes. She claimed she couldn't do a test due to it- and wanted me to make an appointment off site for the test- by the way, my doctor has the machine at her facility, and did the test yesterday- the dilated eyes make no difference for this specific test. The worst thing is I am a human being with sharply declining eyesight- I go to this doctor for help, and I had to PAY to get insulted, frustrated, get no help, and be fearful that my eyesight would worsen before a real professional doctor came back. She gave me no written information on my diagnosis, I left very confused. My doctor came back this week, and I saw her- so I am now being taken care of by a competent doctor.

    Absolutely love Dr.O'Neils Rheumatology wellness office. Dr.O'Neil, her PA, nurses & staff take…read moresuch great care of their patients! I personally like the feel of a women empowered medical office. They truly want to get to know you and your medical history! They won't stop til they have answers and your input! If your looking for a Rheumatologist than look no further. They'll send you for any medically necessary tests and review test results with you in office or over the patient portal. They respond to your voicemails within 48 hours unless your a new patient and then it would probably be longer. Discovered Rheumatology Wellness Center in 2017 and will be here for a long time. Remember they are flexible as to your medical treatments moving forward. If your looking for a relaxing and calm office setting this is your place!

As you may have read before on reviews of mine that when it comes to Doctors one of the things I insist on in my or my families physicians is Compassion and Knowledge and this practice has that in Spades. Dr. O'Neil is amazing, she was able to effectively diagnose and start appropriate treatment for an issue that has just recently cropped up in a family member. So starting off, the office has a calm, peaceful vibe. Its not just the staff, the colors are muted and pastel, the music in the waiting room is calm, the staff is welcoming and the waiting room has something you almost never see in a doctors office: comfortable furniture. The Nurses and the Doctor herself are top notch also. My family member went in with a migraine brewing to a visit, and the nurses made the room dark as soon as they were done with triage and spoke quietly out of concern. The Doctor offered acupuncture (normally something they charge for) to stop it in its tracks. Now I don't know if I ever believe that stabbing yourself with thin needles is spots is a cure for anything, but within 10 minutes she felt the pressure diminish and within 15 minutes the pain was gone. This is just ancillary service btw, the actual issue that brought my family member in was nailed immediately and a proper course of treatment was started right away and that, I might add, started reversing much of the Symptomology immediately. If you have an issue that requires a Rheumatologist I highly recommend this practice.
