I redownloaded yelp just to write a review for this center. Doctor Lipsky is the greatest and the…read morestaff in the office are the most helpful, knowledgeable, and caring people. There are other places that offer cheaper LASIK surgery, but do not take a chance on your vision that could negatively effect you the rest of your life. I am 22 and was seeing about 20/80 in each eye, now I'm easily seeing 20/15 which is life changing and LASIK was one of the coolest experiences of my life. The recovery is a piece of cake and if you're thinking about it, save up and do it. They also offer financial assistance. Lipsky is a genius with incredibly solid qualifications. 100% 5 star review and would trust this guy with brain surgery (if that was what he did! Lol)

By far the best decision I ever made! The staff is friendly and efficient. They make you feel so…read morecomfortable and welcome before and after your procedure. Dr. Lipsky talks you through the whole thing and is so comforting throughout the entire procedure. I have 20/15 after my Lasik! Getting my freedom from glasses and contacts has never felt so good!

Dr. Lipsky is a good doctor, but he GROSSLY over-books his patients. I waited 3 hours past my…read morescheduled appointment today before I gave up and left. In chatting with other patients of his while I waited, we discovered that we were all booked 10 minutes apart. 10 MINUTES. There's other good ophthalmologists in the area. Don't book with him unless you enjoy hours of waiting to be seen.

This is the worst experience I have had with a medical professional. Starting with the waiting…read moreroom, which is extremely crowded, sometimes there are not enough chairs for all the patients waiting to see Dr. Lispky. This is only the beginning waiting room. You will be shown to two or three other waiting rooms in the course of the round of exams. After each eye exam, you must wait in a different waiting room until that specific technician has time to conduct the next test. So on and so forth until you finally get to be in the presence of Dr. Lipsky, himself. The staff is rude and unhelpful. The receptionist told me they will be there until as late as 7 or 8 PM each night until all the patients have been seen. There are no cut-offs when scheduling patients. As many people as call for appointments - are given appointments. This means, even if you ask for the first appointment of the day, in order to avoid the long wait time, you will still walk into the waiting room and see 12 other people waiting for Dr. Lipsky. All twelve of you will have the first appointment of the day! No wonder the staff, nurses, and technicians are rude and unhelpful. Dr. Lipsky himself seems tired by the time he gets to you. No matter how many times he has seen you, or how long you have been his patient, he will have no idea who you are or anything about your medical history. You must start from scratch every time you see him. It is very frustrating to wait 3-4 hours to see the doctor, every time! It is even more frustrating to be rushed through the appointment with no time to ask questions. Unfortunately, my story gets worse. Lipsky recommended me for cataract surgery. On the day of the surgery, I showed up at the facility and was treated to even worse behavior. The wait was long in a crowded waiting room. The staff was unhelpful. Dr. Lipsky never said a word to me before, during, or after the surgery. Not a word! It could have been a stranger performing the surgery. Afterwards, I suffered complications. More trips to his office followed with more frustrating experiences. At one point, I called the office and asked to speak to the doctor, only to be told by his nurse that Dr. Lipsky does not talk to his patients on the phone. I finally went to another ophthalmologist who ended up correcting the cataract surgery conducted by Dr. Lipsky. The difference is night and day. I can see better than ever in that eye. There are other differences - no long wait times to see the doctor, no more rude and unhelpful staff, nurses, and technicians, and no more disinterested and tired Dr. Lipsky. I think many people do not realize they deserve better than to be treated as cattle. BETTER DOCTORS DO EXIST..

I needed to reschedule my appointment so I called 1 week in advance. The staff acted like they had no idea how to do this. They explained that the doctor is not seeing patients after a certain date so I asked if the dr was leaving the practice. If that was the case then I needed to schedule with another doctor there. They kept transferring me back and forth between offices and put me on hold for a total of 35 minutes between transfers. The staff needs to be trained not only on procedures but on telephone etiquette and customer service. Update: found another doctor with a different practice, staff appears to be well educated on customer service. I called back to Houston Eye Associates and on hold for 5 minutes just to request my medical records be transferred to other dr, and to no surprise they did not know the procedure.
