    Dr Pelini and her office were very helpful, as usual, throughout the entire process. It was a pleasure to get in before the end of year.

I was then told the Dr. would be in to discuss if I could be a candidate for Lasiks or a similar procedure. I sat in the exam room for over 45 minutes. No one came in to tell me that the Dr. was running behind, in surgery or having a issue with a previous appointment. I walked out of the exam room after an hour meaning to leave. I ran into the tech, questioned her asking if I was going to see the Dr. She said, 'yes' and that she would go check. The tech came back to say the Dr. would be in in 'just a minute.' She was finishing up an appointment. I waited 6 more minutes and then left. I was in that office from 11:30am to 1pm and was seen for 15 minutes of that time. As this was a consultation for an elective surgery on a very necessary part of my anatomy and paying out of pocket for this delicate procedure, my intuition told me to bail. If a practice is overbooking their physicians that they cannot stay on time and do not have staff to update patients and potential patients on a physicians eta. If a Dr. is running behind on consults for over an hour and the practice is double/triple booking consults and patients, odds are that physician is WAY overworked and probably has no stamina, focus and wakefulness to be touching your eyes with a laser or scalpel. Go elsewhere. Definitely.

He then told me I would receive a call the following week with a quote. The following week, I received a call from a pushy saleswoman named Kendall and was asked if I'd like to schedule surgery and which days were available. This all happened before she even gave me a quote. The whole experience turned me off, so I ended up going elsewhere for my surgery, and I would recommend you do as well.

    I've been thinking about a lasik procedure for the past couple years now because my eyes have…read morestabilized, so I visited a few places in the Chicago area to get a consultation and see who I would move forward with come Jan-16 to leverage my FSA funds. I stumbled upon Vision One via Groupon, but there's just something about discount services that makes me uneasy when it comes to something as important as your eyes. I still wanted to see how the consultations would vary, so I decided to make an appointment. I've had a prior consultation with another venue downtown, and they were very extensive in the tests conducted, and made me feel very comfortable. The surgeon himself even came in and told me how the process would work pre and post surgery. The consultation with Vision One was certainly different, to say the least. They don't have the main equpiment at the consultation office downtown, so the main problem was that they couldn't verify if I'd actually be eligible for lasik or PRK surgery and that I would find out the day of surgery (if moving forward with them). The surgery also takes place at a different office in the west suburbs and not the downtown location. The lasik process at Vision One also uses the older method, using a blade to make the flap on your eye, as opposed to new technology that uses lasers to make the flap; hence the cheap groupon price. I didn't feel comfortable at all coming out of this consultation and there was a night and day difference coming out of this one vs. the other two places I went to. Word of advice, if you're trying to save a few bucks, find it in other ways like eating out or other things in your budget that you can cut back on. When it comes to your eyes, it's worth dishing out the extra dollars to get a more safe and precise procedure. This is just a suggestion, you're in charge of your own decisions. Hope this is helpful! Best, Charlie

One I finally figured it out I went to check in. The assistant handed me a stack of papeará to fill out, standard procedure I understand. My problem is I filled out all these forms beautifully on their website and submitted. The page gave me the, successfully submitted response! Boy was I wrong, yes I had to fill them all out again. The assistant gave me the ole "sorry I'm not seeing it here," routine as if to push the blame on the me the customer. What's scary is these people are going to be digging into my eyes with abrasive tools and shooting lasers into them. Technology has come so far right? I was born in the 80s and hearing that definitely would sound like science fiction. The reality is though we have come that far, yet seems this place can't keep electronic, electronic paper work in order. It's basically an email from me to you with a PDF. Yet I am so bold as to still be sitting here writing this review. So we gained a star. For five my writing and spelling I can't see really well. I have those crazy drops that dilate your retinas. I hate them. The technician who took care of me was wonderful gave me faith that this may go well. Still waiting to see the doctor. Some reviews I saw had stated the wait time was poor. Also, there are a ton of people in the waiting room. My assumption is there is only one doctor which is bad looking at all of these people. Well it ended very well. Dr. Epstein was very informative and made me feel at ease giving me options for my condition. You may have also read my Yelp for Panton Eye Care. They were not good at all. Here however, it was cut and dry here's the issue, here are the options let us know when we can schedule a procedure. I really like the let's solve this problem type of business. I would recommend them to anyone.
