What's concerning is that this only happened after I specifically asked them to review my scans again. Had I not pushed for a second review, I genuinely worry they may have proceeded with surgery despite the risks. I also requested a direct explanation from the doctor and never received one. Instead, I had to repeatedly call the office just to get basic answers and speak with someone knowledgeable. My impression is that the process felt far more focused on moving patients through surgery than on patient safety and communication. I would strongly encourage anyone considering a procedure here to ask detailed questions, seek a second opinion, and carefully review whether they are truly a good candidate before moving forward. I also felt the recovery expectations were presented in a way that understated how difficult and lengthy recovery can actually be.

    I had Lasik with Dr. Neil Wills in February 2001, fifteen years ago, and PRK in my left eye in…read more2011. Both surgeries yielded results that surpassed my expectations. However, it wasn't until recently, when I had a serious problem, that I realized just how lucky I was to have chosen Dr. Wills so long ago to be my Lasik doctor. Since November 2015, Dr. Wills has been treating me for a very severe case of "in- growth" under my Lasik flap resulting from a cat scratch to my left eye and almost two years of uncontrolled growth. The in-growth had spread across my cornea resulting in astigmatism and extreme dry eyes. Dr. Wills was under no obligation to take my case and could have easily referred me to another doctor. Fortunately for me, Dr. Wills agreed to help me because the in-growth covering my cornea was significant. He knew his experience made him uniquely qualified to successfully perform the surgery I needed. Dr. Wills ended up performing two surgeries on my eye to "scrape" the in-growth from my cornea. This required an incision to lift the flap, scrape away the in-growth, and place a protective contact lens over my eye. Dr. Wills is such a skilled and experienced surgeon that, unlike many other surgeons, he did not have to use sutures to secure the flap. After the second surgery, Dr. Wills had to irrigate my eye twice to wash away new in-growth that was returning. Since that time, I have had three appointments with Dr. Wills and, so far, the in-growth has not come back. My eyes are no longer dry and my vision has vastly improved. Dr. Wills performed the surgeries, the irrigations and all the exams as a "follow-up" procedure to the original Lasik surgery and never charged me one penny. By the time I had my first appointment with Dr. Wills I had already been seen by several doctors who could not help me. Right after the cat scratch, I was seen by a doctor who prescribed antibiotics. After a few days, the injury seemed to heal and I frankly didn't think any more about it. As time went on and my eyes became increasingly dry and my sight blurred, I went to an optometrist for prescription glasses. The optometrist told me I had scar tissue around the Lasik flap. He couldn't help me. From there, I went to an ophthalmologist who, after two appointments and a dry eye test which turned out negative, couldn't help me either and ultimately referred me back to my original Lasik doctor (Dr. Wills). At this point I was very upset because I didn't know if this condition could be treated, if it would return, and what it might mean for the future of my eyesight. I made an appointment with Dr. Wills who immediately diagnosed my condition, told me what to expect, and laid out a treatment plan. He was comforting, patient and called me after each procedure to see how I was doing. His staff was always friendly and scheduled my next appointment before I left the office. This experience has made me realize that you have to choose not only the most talented ophthalmologist you can find to perform your Lasik surgery but also one that has integrity, cares and feels a responsibility for his patients. You never know when you might really need that superior level of care. I am profoundly grateful that Dr. Wills is my Lasik eye doctor and I would recommend him without hesitation to my family and friends.

From my very first initial contact, the staff was quick to respond, was warm, professional, and so patient in answering every question. They explained the entire process in plain language so I felt informed and comfortable before even stepping foot in the office. When I came in for my consultation, Dr. Rivers was just as kind, personable, and friendly as everyone had described. He walked me through the different vision correction options, explained the pros and cons of each, and made recommendations based on my needs -- without ever making me feel pressured. I ended up choosing the SMILE procedure, which was offered at a flat, affordable cost for both eyes (no hidden fees or "per eye" surprises that I was seeing everywhere). The procedure itself was fast and smooth. Dr. Rivers has such a calming presence he talked me through every step, making sure I was comfortable and fear-free. There's even a waiting area where your family or friends can watch the procedure if they'd like, which I thought was a cool touch. I noticed a difference in my vision immediately after the procedure -- I could read the time on the digital clock in the wall right away! By the next day, my vision was perfectly clear. They sent me home with everything I needed: eyedrops for moisture, antibiotic drops, sunglasses, coupons!!! and clear instructions for aftercare. I experienced only minimal discomfort in the days following. The office is beautiful!!! It's modern, great views, clean, and spacious, with plenty of comfortable seating. The location is super convenient, and I loved that there was garage parking with an exterior door that led directly into their office (no awkward walking around a building post-procedure!). Now, a year later, my vision is still perfect. The best part? Waking up and not needing to reach for glasses or think about contact lenses at all. It's been truly life-changing. If you've been on the fence about LASIK or SMILE, I can't recommend Dr. Rivers and the Envue team enough. They made the entire process easy, comfortable, and -- best of all -- successful!

However, when my question--about the likelihood of still needing contacts after the surgery--was passed on to Dr. Holzman by his staff, he completely lost his composure. He went on a rant, telling me I had no right to question him, bragging about performing surgery on professional athletes, and claiming he's the best in the area. His response was defensive and dismissive, completely misinterpreting my concerns as an attack on his abilities. Instead of addressing my anxiety, he focused on boasting about his reputation. This was by far the worst healthcare experience I've had, all thanks to Dr. Holzman's unprofessional tirade. Needless to say, I immediately canceled my procedure and will gladly take my money elsewhere.

Thank God she told me or my eyes would have been permanently damaged. This is after two doctors associated with this group had cleared me for surgery. They suggested PRK instead which is extremely painful and has issues with healing properly. You need better people on your team and control procedures to avoid hurting people.

He had a flat affect and set a negative stage. I said I prob need more than a routine eye exam but was happy to start w that. He lmk that a dry eye test isn't covered by ins (which is fine) and not to expect that I could do both in one visit (also fine). He then said, the appt will be 15 min tops, so it's not a time to ask questions. I said, of course I want to be able to ask a couple questions, espec bc of eye irritation lately. He said, "I see your insurance is (x) and that only pays us like $60 per visit. We can't give patients longer than 15, we'd go out of business" (!) I couldn't believe it. The rudeness and the gall of mentioning my coverage resulted in poor profit for them. I suggested he NOT say those things to new or returning patients and he said he was trying to manage expectations, that patients "always complain" they want to be seen longer but it's not doable. Talk about poor patient relations/ customer service. I realize what the medical system is up against w insurance is rough, but never has a public-facing clinic employee been so dissuading about the care their provider provides. I can't NOT recommend this place enough; take your business to an office that will value it.
