I don't know how this place is able to get away with treating people in such a horrible manner.

No explanation given! What an incredibly jarring experience. Please be warned that this place is unbelievably unprofessional!

My mom had a botched eye cataract surgery performed by Dr Littlefield in Nov 2006. Cataract…read moresurgeries are supposed to be a simple Outpatient procedure. What is also disconcerting is the event that occurred just before this botched surgery. She had gone in for her annual eye exam In Oct 2006-and Dr. Littlefield STRONGLY suggested she get this cataract surgery immediately even though she had no side issues or complaints when going into his office that day for her annual exam! She has been seeking corrective treatment from the Wilmer Institute at John Hopkins University Med Center ever since! It has been a nightmare. Her eye color has even changed from light brown to blue. It has been painful for her physically and emotionally. The drives to Baltimore and the occasional overnight stays (surgeries) have been a monetary strain to her and she is not able to enjoy her retirement as a result of this. Not once has he called her to see if she is OK. If she had been more litigious - maybe she could have slapped him with a malpractice suit. Please think of my Mom before making an appointment with Dr. Littlefield!

Very disappointing experience overall. I was scheduled for surgery on Monday, but only two hours…read morebefore the procedure I received a call saying the doctor determined my corneas were too thin. What's concerning is that this only happened after I specifically asked them to review my scans again. Had I not pushed for a second review, I genuinely worry they may have proceeded with surgery despite the risks. I also requested a direct explanation from the doctor and never received one. Instead, I had to repeatedly call the office just to get basic answers and speak with someone knowledgeable. My impression is that the process felt far more focused on moving patients through surgery than on patient safety and communication. I would strongly encourage anyone considering a procedure here to ask detailed questions, seek a second opinion, and carefully review whether they are truly a good candidate before moving forward. I also felt the recovery expectations were presented in a way that understated how difficult and lengthy recovery can actually be.

Front desk staff has been downright awful at times, but, in my view, has improved significantly in the last few months. The technicians level of competence is another matter.

All in all, I would recommend this practice, as Dr. Schefkind is simply the very best.

This review is not of the eye doctors, who I'm sure are exceptional at their jobs. My review is of the staff or more specifically the two ladies who answer the phone. It was my very first appointment at this office and I was forced to make a same day cancellation due to my baby waking up sick that morning. I called first thing in the morning to let them know I cannot make it because my child is sick. They told me I had to pay a $50 cancellation fee due to their policy (which I understand). I explained that I am a new patient and was not aware of their cancellation policy. I also asked if they can make an exception as I am a new patient and was not aware of their policy. They denied my request, which was also fine. However, the ladies were Extremely rude in their tone and the way they spoke to me. I was hung up on and had to call back to which a different lady picked up the phone and was equally (if not more) rude to me. It was very shocking that such a well established place would hire blatantly disrespectful people like that. I have never been treated in such a degrading way in my life by a doctors office. I highly suggest finding a different place if you are looking for an eye doctor.

I never would not have understood how my progressive lenses would work out without his careful guidance.

The day before the appointment they called and were snippy because I did not fill out the paperwork and was told btw that they did not take my insurance. I don't care how good a doctor is, unless there is an organ transplant involved, if the staff is nasty, I don't have room in my life for them. It is only an eye exam-- I pay less for a hair appointment or cute shoes. I would have gladly paid out of pocket but didn't want to deal with the crusty wench up front.

I went to the Rosslyn location but they don't seem to have a yelp page so writing the review here…read more Recommended to this practice after being a patient for many years at another practice - the other eye care practice was purchased by a PE firm and quality of care at least on lens fitting exams just deteriorated. For my appt, some staff gave me the peripheral vision exam, and some other routine exams first before Dr Hubert came for the eye exam for lenses. He was very patient, attentive, and answered all of my questions. Very happy with the experience. My previous experience at the other eye clinic was pretty terrible, an assistant was doing eye exam for lenses and a Dr only came in if there were problems, the sample glasses that the assistant tried on me with the prescription he got was still blurry, Dr was very annoyed that she had to step in and check the work instead of just signing off on it. That's what happens when health clinics get sold to PE firms, they focus on the bottom line more than patient care (trying to get assistants to do most of the work to free up Dr time and see more patients). Dr Hubert mentioned that NOVA Doctors have no intentions of selling their practice to PE and I can see the difference in care. Thank you also to the office staff who are very friendly.

Despite a longer than expected wait on a Friday evening, my experience at Northern Virginia Doctors…read moreof Optometry (NVDO) was excellent. Dr. Hubert and the entire staff were kind, patient, and professional throughout my visit. Upon arrival, I was greeted warmly by the front desk staff. Note that if you're a first time patient, you'll have several forms to fill out via paper. On the bright side, the pen I borrowed was super smooth to write with. Plus one star for that! For some reason, the doctor was behind, but the staff did a good job of informing me of the delays, popping in and out to let me know how much longer they'll be My not so favorite part about optometry visits is the puff in the eye and the dilation part, but that's just me. The tech was very patient with me blinking and having to re-do maybe twice or three times. Once seen by Dr. Hubert, the visit accelerated from there. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and was able to describe my conditions in a way that was understandable for me. Little did he know I come from a family of eye doctors, but I so appreciated that he was able to catch something my family had missed all along. The staff even gave me a week's worth of contact lenses samples as I was going away for a week, and that was so appreciated, especially since my visit took longer than usual. I was able to get my contact lens prescription via email too since it's a bit of a trek for me to find parking or walk there - super convenient. Overall, I highly recommend NVDO. Even if they have a slower / hectic schedule, they really do care about their patients and are super accommodating. Be sure to book way ahead of time because their schedule goes pretty far out - I waited 3 weeks for my appointment.
