I could not be more pleased with my experience. Dr. Sterrer did my cataract surgery, and I’m currently seeing Dr. Parnes, who treats my AMD. I have complete confidence in everyone in this practice.
Waited 35 minutes to see Dr. Rhodes. Technician came in and gave me an eye test. Then I sat in the examination room for a half hour, with no one checking on me, and finally when Dr. Rhodes arrived she took my eye pressure and was gone. I felt like I was rushed out. Not a good experience. I’m
Dr. France came highly recommended so I made an appointment. I was not disappointed. I was so nervous about having my cataracts done, but he put me to ease. The whole office was great!!! Had my second cataract surgery last week and again great experience no problems. This is the place to come to. You won’t regret it!!!
Best care from everyone! I highly recommend EYECARE MEDICAL GROUP.
The staff at Eyecare Medical Group were very professional and attentive to my care and my significant other concurs.
Actually, I'm Karen's sister Dianne Mills. Please know I was nervous about having cataract surgery. The staff at Eyecare Medical was so friendly, explaining everything in such a way that I was put at ease. I told my Dr. he and they were just wonderful and so efficient. The staff told me they all get along and like what they do. I am really pleased with my results too.
I am trying to create account, but they are asking for a security code, I do not have one.
They were excellent, caring and friendly .
From the first appointment, every staff member of Eyecare Medical Group and Dr. Sise were very kind, informative and professional. I was a very nervous patient at the first cataract surgery and the surgical staff calmed my nerves and helped me relax. I have worn glasses for 57 years, now with both eyes having the cataracts removed I am glasses free. Dr. Sise took the time to explain everything and asked repeatedly if I had any questions. I am so glad I was referred to Eyecare Medical Group and met this amazing practitioner and his staff.
From the moment I walked in every person that I encountered was amazing! The level of care and concern from all the staff made me feel so at ease with a somewhat nerve-racking procedure that was ahead of me. I can’t say enough good about the whole experience!
