Everyone was very nice and each one introduced themselves before starting what ever test I was having done in that room. You will move to different rooms where different tests are done and I had a lot of drops put into my eyes. Then, depending on what the doctor finds, you might have to have an IV started and dye injected. That one caught me totally off guard. The lights are dimmed in each room so as not to blind you. Driving home, even sunglasses provided little help and I was extremely nervous driving. So, that's my "what you might expect " information that I wish I had had before my visit. The waiting room was clean and bright and, as I said before, everyone was professional, empathetic, patient, and just down right kind.

Right now I am still able to see my desired physician, usually at a convenient time, for me. However, the wait times are getting longer and there are times when a patient has to go sit in the hall because the waiting room is completely filled. Keep in mind, it always takes 2 to 3 hours per visit so I don't want to see reviews with people complaining about having to wait. I am not sure if there are ever 2 physicians present to provide care. It has grown from 2 physicians to 8 and 1 of the original physicians is no longer there. I will keep you posted about the quality of care provided.

The whole place seemed extremely chaotic.The pre exam rooms had no ceiling and you could hear the exam next to you.. very old outdated building.After 25 min the first lady took me.. she did tests after she was done she said I have to see if they want me to do more of course they did.I was then brought to another lady she did more testing....they brought to a man he did more testing..I feel this was all to prolong the situation because the dr was backed up.They really need to stop over booking.The patients time is valuable too. It was now going on 2 hrs I had to ask when they were going to call me back.Finally 15 min later the brought me to a room where I waited another 15 min .I was finally seen by the dr. then a few more tests?All this was supposed to be is a cataract appointment.I spent less time with the Dr than anyone else.

If you don't know, at the retina office, you go from room to room for different tests and drops in your eyes. Multiple people are touching you. Yes, the doctors are accomplished, but when I asked a question, the doctor answered and then asked "can I go on now?" Wait, what? since when is it a bad thing for a patient to ask questions? I was made to feel like I would only become a number if I came here for treatment. I was very uncomfortable and decided to seek treatment elsewhere.
