These guys are the best in Georgia for Retina problems. Dr. Jacobson is top-notch, without a doubt…read morethe best retina specialist in Georgia. Unless you are willing to go to Bascolm-Palmer Eye Institute in Miami, Dr. Jacobson is your best bet. He PERSONALLY took the time to understand my entire medical history (rather than having some tech-schooled, slow-writing medical assistant who understands about half of what you are telling her and writes down even less). Even more importantly, Dr. Jacobson demonstrated the ability to think about how existing medical conditions may affect my eyes. After having lots of experiences with MDs of all types, I can honestly say that Dr. Jacobson is definitely a rare and dying breed. Not only does he have an exceptional attention to detail, really good communication skills, outstanding capabilities and the most current knowledge of retinal disease, treatment and care -- he also seems to be a genuinely nice guy. The other MDs in the practice seem equally skilled...I don't have as much first hand experience with them except to say that I had an after-hours emergency and had to page the on-call MD. My call was returned in less than 2 minutes! Dr. Rivalese also offered to see me in the office on Saturday AM. Impressive that they are so responsive to non-life threatening emergencies. Most other MDs would tell their patients to "go to the ER"...but the ER can't do much for eye problems except charge you $2k and tell you to "follow up with your doctor on Monday". Sure, having eye/retina problems is terrible! But knowing that there is competent, professional care is reassuring. Give Georgia Retina and Dr. Jacobson in particular a try...I think they have several locations: Decatur, Riverdale, Perimeter, etc.

It seems that everybody has a different take on who you should go to for your eye exam. This is…read morethe second year I have had my yearly exam at Visionworks Cartersville. I have to say they are very professional and the doctor is excellent. Dr. Sharifi took ample time to explain the examination and what has changed, and why, since my last exam. She is easy to communicate with and doesn't mind interacting to make you understand exactly what you need to do to keep you eyes healthy. There was no pressure to buy glasses there, but I found their prices were hard to beat on the name brand glasses. Yes, I would recommend to go there.
