My Name is Richard Fasano and have visited the office on Oceani numerous times sinc March 2025…read more After I was informed By Dr. Kung I would need Cataract surgery in both eyes, I expressed nu concern since I was very uneasy about anyone or anything touching my eyes. I explained I was very nervous and was told not to worry that I would be given something on that day to keep.me calm. The first surgery for the right eye lens removal by laser was June 17th, 2025. After I had the anestholigist put in the intravenous she went to.lunch leaving me on my own scared ro death. With Dr Kung telling me to.man up in other words and to cal. Down or get off the table. Somehow I got thru it and the lens was removed. 2 weeks later on July 1st almost the same scenario and only after my prtests did Dr Kung give him something to calm him down. Then I was ok and lens put in all done. Within a month I could see better and eventually drive without glasses. Here's what's bothering me, in the past 6 months I have e been back to the office many times for followips by DrCampbell a phenomenal Dr with a great bedside manner. However in that 6 months I have never seen not even once Dr Kung asking me how I was doing or feeling. That's just not right even a phone call to check on my progress would have sufficed.

The other receptionist chimed in and said her co-worker wasn't wearing a mask. To which I replied, I wore mine into the office as requested on your front door. This is HER responsibility to wear her mask at all times as the front door was unlocked and various people were coming and going. I have never been thrown out of a dr's office because I arrived early - especially that I traveled from out of state to see the dr. Staff also has a habit of speaking about various patients in front of the patients in the waiting room. There is no excuse for this at all! If the staff is not happy with their job, maybe they should elsewhere. I pay for my visits with the dr, and this payment doesn't include their abuse. Very disappointed as I know I am NOT the only patient who has experienced something like this.

Most nights there are more people than seats, and I'm sorry, but seeing people on canes standing around is not right. Either book less appointment times (which they can't honor anyway) or have more hours. The staff often has little patience for the patients who struggle with the tasks they're given, and waiting an hour to be seen by the doctor is unfair and insulting to those compromised seniors who need help.

I have a mixed review here since I have not seen Dr. Mostafavi but I have instead seen Dr…read more Polishchuk, his associate for a diagnosis of my suddenly cloudy right eye. Firstly, I want to thank the staff whom are very professional and nice. The ladies that work there are very accommodating. I was given an appointment the next day for which I was very grateful. Dr. Polishchuk dilated my eyes And I've had them dilated before but he seems sort of rough in his manner, not gentle. His diagnosis was partially on point. I should really thank him because of my experience with him which was not all that great and hence I decided to go back to my original surgeon for a second opinion at Columbia Doctors. He did not even question me about driving after my eyes were dilated or wearing sunglasses, like not concerned. Sometimes it's the little things. But in a way it all worked out because I did have at least a provisional ICD 10 diagnosis to be seen more timely by my original surgeon who performed successful (cataract surgery in 2017) on both my eyes respectively. The point is, she actually assessed through more testing that the diagnosis was applicable to both eyes not just the one eye even though it was worse in the right eye. Danielle Trief, MD Assistant Professor at Columbia University Medical Center did much more extensive testing by far. This was a week after I saw Dr. P on Clawson Avenue. At the same appointment she performed a laser procedure which cleared up my entire vision in the right eye which was worse than the left which was the "good eye" now the "bad eye". The procedure was painless and within a few hours I could miraculously see perfect in that right eye. In layman's terms the lens implant needed to be "polished" as this can commonly occur over time. I am going to have the left eye done in two weeks. My point is that unless it's an emergency which was fortunately not the case here, me personally, I would get a second opinion. Was it a major pain in the ass to go into Manhattan? Absolute torture yes, but hey you only have one pair of eyes.

The "gal" took my information and phone number and said she would speak to the doctor. I was called back shortly and told the doctor wouldn't see me and that I should go back to the Emergency Room. Ophthalmologist's on SI wouldn't help me..no compassion in doctors offices any more. Kids run the office and they have no care about a patients needs.

This was from last year, review was in my draft, thought I should let others know…read more Had a visit at Dr. Doug Lambertson. But it turned out to be some other doctor named Jyostna Jain who checked my eyes. Becky at the reception desk scheduled my tests as soon as I walked in they got the tests done for glasses and lenses. 1. I got to know later that my vision insurance was not covered at that place and they didn't even feel an obligation to let me know before proceeding with the tests. 2. A few weeks into using the prescribed lenses I noticed that something was off and got my eyes checked again and was told the right eyes power was tested incorrectly and there's a lot of difference from previous prescription. So over all I ended up paying $200+ for eye tests and prescription that was not even correct.

Dr. Lambertson is friendly, and does a pretty much perfect job of making sure you get the right prescription every year. Once you're done with your appointment, Costco sells frames literally right outside the office door so you can literally step outside, hand them your prescription, and then have your frames ordered. It usually takes a couple weeks, but then you can just go and pick them up at costco. The reception staff is incredibly friendly as well, and I will continue to be coming to this office every year.
