Patient Reviews
May 28, 2026
I saw this ophthalmologist twice for a painful stye/infection that lasted for weeks after an optometrist’s treatment did not help. At the first visit, the appointment felt rushed, and I was told to “wait and see” without much additional evaluation.Three weeks later, with the issue still unresolved after about 13 weeks total, I returned. During that visit, he seemed irritated that I came back and told me my condition was “not that serious” and that he did not have the “bandwidth” for patients who were not losing their vision. I found this dismissive and unprofessional.He then prescribed a medication that was not FDA approved and would have cost over $2,000 out of pocket because it was not covered by insurance. His office later acknowledged they were aware of the high cost. Although they later offered an alternative medication, by then I had lost confidence in his care. I felt dismissed and talked down to throughout the experience. I would not recommend him to anyone.
