Very long wait time, with appointment staff changing times, canceling, providing different doctors…read morethan scheduled, and not seeming to know what's going on from one minute to the next. The care quality is up in the air based on who you see, and what their specialty and experience is for that type of care. One time I went in to have my eye photographed by a large machine and the teenage staff members there seems inexperienced and unable to figure out how to use the machine. One young lady was looking at her phone while eating a bag of chips a few feet away while the teenager male kept pulling my head and trying to position it in different ways and eventually had to ask the teenage young lady to put down the chips and help him try to figure out how to photograph my eye. It took them several times to figure it out. Considering that patients go there for very serious, often life-altering medical conditions that can be life-threatening if not treated properly or cause them to lose sight, it's disheartening and depressing to see teenage staff disorganized, disinterested, and seeming to be out of touch with what they need to be doing or how to schedule simple appointments.

This was my first appointment with Dr. Wagner, and I deeply regret going. Patients in the waiting…read moreroom were sitting for an average of two hours just to be seen for ten to fifteen minutes, which I found unacceptable. Still, I waited patiently for my turn. The nurse who checked me in tested my vision by holding up her fingers and asking me to look in different directions. No machines were used to assess the health or vision of my eyes, even though my optometrist had previously detected high pressure multiple times over the last six months. After numbing my eyes, the doctor came in, briefly examined me, and said my eye pressure was normal at 18 in both eyes (which I was very happy and also my optic nerve was fine). Unexpectedly, the doctor made comments about my weight. I explained that my A1C is perfectly normal and that I am comfortable in my size large clothes. I am a big breasted women so he seemed to assume I was overweight based on appearance alone. I did not come for unsolicited opinions about my body. I came for a medical evaluation of my eyes. I stood up for myself and asked him to stop, but he was loud and dismissive throughout the visit. After the appointment, I was shocked to receive a bill for $358. Other ophthalmologists in the area charge around $175 for a comprehensive exam that includes proper machine testing, like at Virginia Eye Consultants. When I contacted the billing department, I was told the wrong billing code might have been submitted but that it could not be changed because doing so would be considered fraud. However, it seems unethical that an incorrect code benefiting the provider financially was submitted in the first place. That's a fraud! I wrote a letter directly to the doctor and gave it to the practice manager, but she repeatedly ignored my follow-up requests. I do not know if the doctor ever saw it, or simply chose not to respond. I do not recommend this practice due to the excessive wait time, the doctor's poor bedside manner, and questionable billing practices.

First and foremost Dr. Aris Delianides is rude and I believe there's always someone higher up than…read morehim to complain to. I don't like how I was treated or spoken to concerning a situation with my eye I'm assuming is a stye but I've had it now for 9 months . I'm doing the necessary treatment provided by the doctor but my eyes haven't gotten any better. Upon my visit he suggested updating my medication to 100mg instead of 50mg after already taking the medication for months now. Also I pay out of pocket 25.00 for this medication after my insurance is applied. He didn't know the end result if I took the updated medication and didn't tell me what other options I had. I had to google it and ask questions. I inquired about the steroid eye drops and I'm not sure if he made a racial comment or not but he said that wouldn't be good for my skin complexion and he rub his hand back and forth I guess implying my black skin tone because he said it would cause different coloration in my eye. So I did more research online and asked if he could drain the eye, he then goes to say that would be surgery here done in the office. I wouldn't suggested that as we're cutting the eye and scrapping it out but it may come back. What may come back ? What's going on with my eye if it's not a stye what is it? He was short with words and due to my insurance and what they charge every visit 50.00 would be applied on my bill owed as I didn't have the 50.00 upon my visit. I was grateful to the head manger for doing that's as 50.00 is due upon every visit. With the options presented to me and lack of communication and compassion the Dr. Rudely suggested that I get another opinion and see someone else. I felt disrespected and as if he was pushing me out. I left out of the very emotional because I thought we would at least have a solution to what's going on with my eyes after no results no changes within 9 months. I wish there was someone higher then him to complain to other then writing a review. I will take this further as his rudeness wasn't called for and still today I don't know what's wrong with my eyes just to keep taking the medication prescribed to me!
