Dr. Seth Meskin - Please read. My first experience at Eye Physicians & Surgeons PC - walked in to…read morea very nice office. The lady at the front desk greeted me by saying my insurance is not active. After realizing her mistake she said I needed to pay a $40 co-pay, which I did not have to pay. She said if I did not pay it now they would add a fee to the $40 when they bill me. The office manager was not much better, asking me to sign a form that a service that was covered, I still needed to sign that I would be responsible for it. Did nt make any sense at all - then she said I was good. Wow, I almost walked out due to their rudeness and miss reputation However, Erica made up for the unprofessional treatment the front desk showed me. And Dr Hardik Patel was kind and thorough durning his exam and treatment. I am sure that management has no idea how unprofessional the front desk staff is. Maybe they should send in a "Ghost" patient so they can see for themselves.

HORRIBLE!!! I called to make an appointment for an eye exam. The person I spoke with was nasty,…read morecondescending, unprofessional and utterly incompetent. She didn't even know the answers to simple questions about eye exams and had to put me on hold for over 10 min so she could check with her supervisor. Then she didn't know the price of the contact lens fitting exam. Then, when I asked if they accept my insurance it was impossible to get a straightforward answer it was clear she had no clue what she was saying. Later, I called their other location to doublecheck and got completely different answers. It was also an ordeal. Again, the person I spoke with was rude and abrupt. They are so vague about insurances they accept, or about the final cost you can expect to pay. Then they e-mail forms to sign requiring you to pay upfront for things that are routinely covered by insurance. Everything there is so chaotic and disorganized. And don't even dare ask another question because you will be snapped at. I can only imagine when one gets a bill from them. Most likely you will be overcharged and nobody in their office will cooperate with you to resolve any billing issues.....or even understand what you are calling about. Not the sharpest knives in the drawer, to say the very least. Stay away from this practice!!!!!!

It's was placed under Eye Physicians & Surgeons in general?? I'm a rather difficult patient... ask my significant other he is a Dentist! When it comes to anything eye related . I can't even touch my own eyes! People with such phobias typically need to seek out Doctors with incredible skill, a calming manor and a great deal of patience-or we would never get through an eye exam. Dr. Silverstone is exactly that kind of Doctor! Mine for many years. He is also the "go to" Doc for many medical professionals in our community. I can now say with total impunity I do not equate eye surgery with being set on fire. That's Trust! In addition, he happens to have a superb assisting staff (patient care). My experience was with his assistant C.J- was wonderful she is the gold standard! Note: You will need to to keep a tight follow on your prescriptions, and be very clear and firm with front desk as to what you need and when you need it- it's a busy practice so it's understandable, and I'm happy to overlook this, for such a terrific Doctor like Philip Silverstone. Thank you!

Her eye is so bad and she's is so uncomfortable with it. But he said no. That's not possible and the best appointment I have is September 8th which is 2 weeks from now. I'm floored!! What a POS!!

Young man was very insensitive to our situation. AND RUDE. Two weeks in a row we had 2:15 appointments. At 3:30 we hadn't seen the doctor yet! After the check in the young man was given my wife's file. He presided down the hall and was doing something on a computer. While cit catting with co workers. After that he went in to one of the rooms to talk to another co worker. 25 minutes after her initial appointment he proceeded to call her. I explained that my wife had a 4:00pm appointment else where, and could we be seen in the next hour and a half. His answer was = We don't work by time, we go by patients. And there are 8 in front of you. if each patient took 15 minutes which they take much more than that. That's 2 hours ! That is not expectable. Many of the other patients were complaining also, how many left? They thing they have the only show in town. Many of business that have thought that way are not in business anymore !

I had been doing well for over a year with no flare-ups, but this weekend, I developed a pretty severe case. Of course, the symptoms didn't manifest until Saturday morning, and I had an event on Sunday that I really did not want to miss. Fortunately, Dr. Cervantes was on call for the practice. I called the answering service and immediately received a callback. Dr. Cervantes could have easily told me to go to the ER and follow up with him on Monday. But he didn't. He met me at the office on both Saturday and Sunday and treated me in person. I was able to attend and enjoy my event on Sunday. Dr. Cervantes is a truly caring doctor. The office staff is equally as wonderful and got me in again on Monday to make sure we were headed in the right direction. I am truly grateful for the wonderful care I have received from Dr. Cervantes and his staff, and I cannot recommend Connecticut Eye Specialists highly enough!

It's been a full day now, and though it's not totally back to normal, my eye is safe. When the time comes for me to have my next exam, I'll be visiting Dr.Seymour.
