Be very careful with billing transparency at this office. We scheduled a routine eye exam and…read moreprovided vision insurance. During the visit, retinal imaging was recommended and we were explicitly told that if it was done that day, it would be covered under the routine vision exam. After the exam was completed, we were informed that the visit was billed as a medical exam, resulting in unexpected out-of-pocket charges due to our medical deductible. Medical insurance was not discussed or verified until after the visit. Only after requesting further information did we receive the billing and diagnosis codes used to justify medical billing. None of the documented diagnoses were discussed with the patient during the exam, nor was it explained that a medical condition was being evaluated or that billing would change as a result. The issue is not the clinical care, but the lack of transparency and misleading communication around insurance coverage and diagnoses. Patients deserve clear, upfront explanations before testing is performed. Based on this experience, we would not return.

Be very clear up front what you will be charged for the appointment. I visited this location before…read morewith different insurance, and this time was surprised to be charged at two different points while there. The first charge made sense - it was for my co-pay which is clearly shown on my insurance card. As I was leaving I was told I needed to pay an additional amount for the "medical portion". The medical portion was apparently seeing the doctor for approximately 5 minutes; it was the shortest amount of time I have spent with an optometrist. This was after going thru a series of four brief tests with an assistant. I called my insurance company and the representative agreed it was not correct. The takeaway was not to go back again. Disappointing because the first time I was there the experience and care were terrific. Seems like they have new practitioners.

it's easy to find an entrance however, inside of the dr's office is hard to find. The door was…read moreclosed there's no sign. Outside of the elevator, no one greeted back after trying to ask questions. Finally found a place. This place needs to renovate to attract more patients. I also waited bloodwork more than 30min and at the front was about to leave... :( luckily, I've made another appointment. If you're coming here for appointment 1st time, try to be there at least 15-20min earlier to find out your office. if you're coming in afternoon; after 3pm, they're running quite late: like I mentioned that bloodwork. Make sure to make next appointment while you're waiting, everyone leave 5pm sharp. waiting room is available on the first floor Inc vending machine. But I highly recommend to bring your it own snack if you can. In the neighborhood, it's hard to find something to grab unless you can go to 95-93rd street.

What is happening with Mt Sinai?!! Been going here the past…read more5 years but the past 7 months it has been horrible! ! The call center has no idea what they are doing and book wrong appt on wrong dates. I come in for a mamo follow uo and the front desk badgers about insurance. After getting changed and ready to see the tech the tech says they scheduled you a month too early. We count from January and not December when your last appt was. Does not even make sense!! This happened to another persok as I was in the waiting room as well. Last week I had to wait over 1.5h to be seen for a pelvic ultrasound and their excuse oh the system had a glitch. You are seeing me wait!! Horrible and sich lack of service!! Oh front desk response to when I said I am changing hospital. Everyone is equally bad as Mt Sinai
