Patient Reviews
Oct 07, 2022
Although the exam seemed thorough the change in my astigmatism that was causing my symptoms was totally missed or dismissed, it was never brought up to me. I was told my condition couldn't be corrected with glasses. I was recommended to a specialist that I waited 6 weeks to see who found the change in my astigmatism, wrote a new prescription for glasses and let me try out a sample, it was perfect. Tragedy is that I continued to suffer my symptoms for weeks and worried I had some neurological changes. I experienced unusual fatigue from constant compensation for double vision and it impacted my work. Patients have a difficult time knowing if the care they get is medically sound so I felt I needed to share this. The staff was very nice but again I don't know how this was missed, it is documented in my chart, I've had it for decades, it should have been looked at.
