I've been coming here for almost a decade, and it's been great. When I first moved to Kalamazoo, I…read moretried three different optometrists and was so unhappy. I needed new gas permeable contact lenses, and the folks at other places couldn't get my prescription right and kept trying to get me to switch to soft lenses which I was not interested in. I was recommended Dr. Standiford by a friend because he's a contact lens specialist. He did an exam, asked me lots of questions about how I wear my lenses, and reached out to my previous optometrist from before I moved to get the brand and prescription of my last good pair of contact lenses (something the other optometrists never bothered to do). The lenses I have now are great. He's also been able to provide me with lots of advice about Lasik and its alternatives and the pros and cons given my specific case. He's never pressured me to get additional services or get new lenses when my prescription hasn't changed. I trust him, and it's great. Everyone I've interacted with in the office has been pleasant, and they were even able to accommodate a rush Rx request when I lost a contact on the streets of Barcelona. In the last couple of years, they started taking EyeMed which is a huge plus.

I had a 2-1/2hour wait to see the retinal specialist which I thought was horrendous. The first part…read moreof my visit at 10:30 am with the technician went great. Then after my eyes were dilated, I was ushered into a waiting room where I waited until almost 1 pm. This place could take a few lessons in customer/patient care and offer check backs with patients while waiting. Offer healthy snacks or refresh their stale coffee pot. There was a drinking fountain, a coffee pot with Styron cups and a container of store bought cookies. There was also a tv screen that told dr wait time (my physician' wait time was listed as 120 minutes) with another TV playing HGTV. They may or may not provide free wifi; I suggest providing a docking station to charge cell phones as a courtesy. Also it would be good to know ahead of time that there is such a wait. I think if they know that there is going to be a long wait patients should be told upfront so they can adjust their schedule. I would have brought my portable office or some knitting. I was caught totally off guard and my emotions became frayed the longer I waited. I also believe they should look at how they schedule and not schedule so tight. Patient care was minimal. My appointment went past 1 pm. Offers for a healthy snack & a bottle of water would have helped. Patient care was minimal. I felt like I had been taken hostage in that waiting room. The reason I didn't walk out was because I didn't want to endure a second appointment in similar circumstances. I finally asked to speak with the manager who apologized profusely. After I did, it felt like I was shunted in quickly to see the physician. I hope I don't have to go back for a long time.

I had Clear Lens Exchange surgery performed on July 22nd. Even though I didn't have cataracts I…read morewas seeking an option to eliminate or reduce my dependency on glasses. Since the surgery wasn't medically necessary, I paid 100% out of my own pocket for the surgery. I had Radial Keratotomy (RK) eye surgery in the late 1990's and that presented in itself some additional considerations for me when selecting surgical options. I am based in South West Michigan and met with 6 or 7 different practices in Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Ann Arbor, and Michiana (I.e. South Bend, Elkhart, etc.). Boling Vision Center listened to what my goals and expectations (I.e. outcomes) were for having the surgery. I was very impressed during my initial consultation with Cindy prior to setting up an office visit to meet with the Dr. After consulting with the Dr., we reviewed multiple options and it was determined it would be best to wait for 6 months to see what lens advancements / new product launches would be available. At nearly the 6 month mark I received a call from Dr. Boling who explained the details surrounding a new lens that had been approved by the FDA. After speaking with the Dr. I returned for a quick office visit followed by surgery the following week. I am beyond happy that we waited for the new lens to become available. The surgery for both eyes was completed the same day and I didn't experience any pain whatsoever. The surgical staff who I worked with during the prep and post-op were extremely professional and very good. The post-op included follow up visits the following day, 1 week out, and 1 month out. At this time, my vision is clear and I do not need to wear glasses whatsoever. The benefits of this surgery should last the rest of my life. Even though the surgery was not covered by Insurance, to me it was worth the cost. I can't say enough about my positive experience with Boling Vision Center. Everything from the initial consultation to the surgery, and the post-op follow up appointments has been great. I have now met with multiple doctors from this practice and I can tell you they have all been extremely thorough and detail oriented. Dr. Richard Boling, the surgeon who performed my surgery is seriously an Amazing Dr. and someone I immediately felt comfortable with. Another plus for me was to see that Boling Vision Center is committed to the latest technology/innovations in eye care. Selecting the right practice for me to have my eye surgery was something which was extremely important to me. I invested a good amount of time in meeting with different practices as well as researching all of the different types or surgical options available. I strongly recommend Boling Vision Center.

I had a cataract removed from my right eye. Bolling encountered a "floppy iris" during this…read moresurgery. My iris was damaged. There is equipment the surgeon can have ready to deal with a floppy iris, but, as Bolling himself said, it isn't cost effective. So disregard claims of "state of the art" equipment. Furthermore, at my day after surgery appointment Bolling's first words were, "You're right on target." It was only after I said I couldn't see much with my right eye that he explained the floppy iris. Bolling then told me that he could perform laser surgery to "clean up" what he was unable to finish in the original surgery. I paid $268 out of pocket (and I suppose my insurance paid a lot more) but the laser surgery did no good. He then explained that when I got my glasses it would be much better. And, he would give them to me at his cost. I still had to pay $348 out of pocket and the glasses do no good. I have a cataract in my left eye but Bolling will not touch it.

I had to go back a week later and ask for a new prescription. After I got these new contacts prescriptions written down, I went and ordered contacts online. The site checked what I reported as my prescription with what the eye doctor had on file, and there was a discrepancy. Turns out that the prescription that the doctor had written down for me was different from what they actually had on file, and they had given me my old prescription instead. When I called and asked about it, they were not sorry about it at all or showed any understanding. Also, they're really expensive. But I'd rather pay more and get good service rather than waste weeks of my time with them.

I AM TRULY SHOCKED AT HOW I WAS JUST TREATED BY THIS "DOCTOR"....... and I wish I could give this…read morepractice a ZERO!! Aren't doctors supposed to take an oath, "First, do no harm"?????? Well if Dr Nush took this oath, he certainly isn't still abiding by it!! I have been done a GREAT harm by him and his staff today. I just moved back into this area of the country & haven't seen Dr Nush for over 10 years, and so I was not fully aware of his current policies. Being new (or new since 10 yrs ago,) to this area, I also didn't realize how long it would take to get into see doctors here. Thus, I ran out of my medication that my previous doctor from where we used to live, had prescribed me, before being able to get in to see Dr Nush. So I was very anxious for this doctors appointment, having been without my medicine for a few weeks. So today was finally my appointment. I will admit that I have some responsibility in the fact that I was almost 10 minutes late to this appointment. Should I have called? Yes! and I deeply regret that now!!!. However it was barely 10 minutes past as I approached the reception desk, when I was succinctly and coldly told that because I was 10 minutes late that not only would I not be able to see the doctor today, but NOT EVER!!!! And it didn't come from only his staff - Dr. Nush was standing right behind them with no remorse on his face as I stood there apologizing, crying, and pleading for a second chance since I didn't know the policy, and he just said too bad, that's the rule. They tried to appease me (probably at an attempt to calm me down and get me out of their office), by giving me the # of another Dr who is taking new patients across the parking lot. So the receptionist walked me out the door, showed me where the other doctor was and quickly closed the door behind me, washing their hands of me. As it turned out with this recommend doctor across the parking lot, while he is taking new patients, they don't have any openings until February!! Obviously that's no one's fault, however it's going to greatly affect my health, my well-being, along with my children's well-being (as I am a single mom and cannot properly care for them without my medication). Obviously I know that isn't the doctor's responsibility, however I am truly HORRIFIED by their lack of empathy and willingness to give me a second chance to redeem myself of being 10 minutes late, knowing my situation and the remorse I showed. Especially because I was not made aware of their policy beforehand!!!!! In retrospect, clearly it's a blessing in disguise that I will be finding a new doctor because I would never want such a "doctor" to be in charge of my health care, but the situation he has put me in, I will never understand. His conduct as a "doctor" is not only completely unacceptable, but DEPLORABLE. Regardless of his knowledge or aptitude as a physician, please be VERY WARY of his complete lack of empathy. And if I could give one piece of advice, it would be to Dr Nush, to find a new occupation.....for someone who cares so little about the well-being of people, he should not be a physician who sees and treats people, and primary purpose is to "First Do No Harm."
