Extremely disappointed with Eye Surgery Associates - Weston…read more This was one of the most frustrating and unprofessional medical experiences I've ever dealt with -- and I wasn't even present. My daughter had an appointment, and since I was working, her grandmother (my mother) took her. The office called me to offer an earlier appointment due to cancellations -- which now makes sense. I explained my mother would bring my daughter and asked what she needed; they said "just her ID." No mention whatsoever that they don't accept insurance. Worse, I received both a text and email instructing us to bring the insurance card and be prepared to pay a copay -- strongly implying they accept insurance. My mother wasn't told otherwise at check-in. Only at checkout was she informed they don't take insurance and was forced to pay $120 out of pocket just to leave. Then came the unprofessionalism. Staff member Natty was rude, arrogant, and dismissive, even saying, "Are you gonna pay or not?" with zero compassion. Completely unacceptable behavior -- especially toward a grandparent accompanying a child. Dr. Cardone was kind and professional, and we appreciated his care. But due to the rude front desk, poor communication, and misleading billing practices, we will not return. As someone with over 10 years in the medical field, I know what proper patient care looks like -- and this office failed miserably in every way except the physician's care. I'll be reporting this and strongly advise others to get everything in writing and ask questions up front.

I love it when he conducts my regular eye check visits and if I'm not seeing him that day he always makes sure to go out of his way to say hi when he sees me! Fantastic bedside manner! They have different office hours for each of their locations, however, I much prefer this location for regular visits over their Oakland Park office. This office is in a more prominent doctors office commerce park area they have a ton of parking plus it's much easier to get to. I feel like the operations of this location are more streamlined and productive. I would highly recommend Pannu Laser and Dr. Mutayala's office for your LASIK surgery and regular vision care.

To say my experience there was horrific is an understatement! My son is 7 years old and autistic, when he could not follow the doctors request as quickly as he wanted him to he quickly began to berate my son by saying "maybe he needs a hearing test too!" Then he ripped away a little toy my son had in his grasp. When my son got upset, he abruptly got up and barged out of the room shouting "whenever you can get him to cooperate, I'll come back!" No one should ever be subjected to this type of treatment!! Ignorance is not a good look for you "DR" Cardone!! Educate yourself! #Autismawareness #Autismspeaks #autism #wireddifferently

It's been a pleasure getting my PRK eye surgery done here! When it comes to the surgery itself, all in all my results were amazing and better than what I expected from the research I did online. My vision is sharper and in the 20/15 range and my eyes are more comfortable than with contacts. All of this kicked in within 2 weeks, much sooner than expected. My vision will reach its peak somewhere are 3-6 months from now, so I'm looking forward to even better results over time. Thanks Dr. Karp and Heather!

Dr. Arthur Fishman, M.D. is THE BEST ! Here's why:…read more I am a terrible eye patient; NO ONE TOUCHES MY EYES, let alone operates on them ! I knew from several Ophthalmologists that I needed cataract surgery. I kept putting it off, even though I had lost my ability to drive at night several years ago, and my daytime vision was compromised. I was referred to Dr. Fishman while visiting South Florida. His prestigious educational and professional background aside, FINALLY, a doctor that took the time to explain to me the mechanics of my eye condition; I had particularly bothersome subcapsular cataracts. Dr. Fishman explained the benefits and risks of cataract surgery, what I had to look forward to and he took the time to answer my numerous questions. He was very kind and empathetic and I felt immediate trust, so I decided on the spot that I found the right doctor to operate on my eyes! Dr. Fishman gave me several options for lens replacements and I opted for the Technis Intraocular Lenses by Abbott. With both of my two eye surgeries, after the dilation drops wore off, I looked around and my first thought was "I am liberated"! 20-20 Vision ! No more glasses and no more blinding cataracts! I was so happy after the first surgery, I asked to have the second one done the following week. The surgery itself was as described to me. The anesthesiologist told me "you will be awake but comfortable", but, I made sure to clarify that it was "twilight sleep". Which, as far as I am concerned as a layman patient, no, I was not awake, and if I was, I don't remember a thing; exactly as I wanted it. Post surgery, I had absolutely no discomfort. Vision was blurry until the dilation drops wore off. One of my eyes felt like there might have been a grain of sand in it for maybe an hour. Other than that, there was no pain, no nothing. If I wouldn't have been hit with the liberating sensation of "perfect vision" afterwards, I wouldn't have known that I had surgery at all ! Dr. Fishman's office is very efficient. My first appointment was within 7 days from when I first called. I could have been seen even sooner, however, my schedule didn't allow for it. Each time I've gone in, the office is well organized and the staff is efficient, courteous and helpful. I was given a thorough eye exam with the newest State of the Art testing equipment (non-invasive). In fact, had I not opted for cataract surgery, it was determined I needed a new RX for glasses, which was more precise than the RX I was given less than a year ago at another Ophthalmologist's office. I was given easy to follow pre op instructions by the surgery coordinator, who, also called me post op to see how I was doing. I called with a question a few hours after the first surgery and it was answered immediately. For both surgeries the staff at the surgical center were extremely efficient and helpful. They made sure I had followed pre op instructions, made me feel comfortable before the procedure and I was sent home with easy to follow post op instructions. And, they called to check up on me. My follow up appointments with Dr. Fishman post surgery went seamlessly. I couldn't be happier. Cataract surgery is supposed to be one of the "easiest" on a patient. Yes, that may be, but, it is still surgery, so having the best surgeon is important. Dr. Fishman is certainly that. The whole experience was perfect ! Anyone may contact me with more questions.
