    Staff always different. Probably due to poor management skills w/ way too many tests. I wouldn't walk, but run as fast as you can.

New contacts fit well and I'm getting used to the multi vision contacts. Really took great care of me and overcame the bad experience from Friday that was just a misunderstanding.

Bathroom was in need of attention. It is a large practice. I wanted to go to the uptown office but because I wanted evaluation for cataracts, I had to go to the Metairie office. I was seen by a technician who wore sweatpants as a uniform. Seriously? She did the refraction. Several times I told her that the images were NOT clear to me. Eyes examined and seen by Dr. Kurica who said I didn't have cataracts. Great. Given an rx and he said, "It's practically the same as your old one; I just tweaked it a bit". Got glasses made at Costco and the rx was WAY off. Costco said there was a BIG difference between previous rx and new one. Definitely not a "tweaking". Tried to get a return appointment for correction and was told I had to see same doctor and got an appointment for 3 weeks later! For second visit, the waiting room was completely packed. Several people in wheelchairs. Was seen by same technician as first time. When I explained my situation she immediately blamed Costco for error. When I pointed out that the rx he gave me was significantly different from my previous rx, in spite of him telling me he only "tweaked it", she said, "Well his idea of tweaking is bigger than our idea of it". ???? Went back to waiting room but it was so crowded I chose to wait in the hall. Looked like a COVID factory in there. My appointment was at 1:45. By 3:00 I still had not seen the doctor. I asked a few times about the delay and was told they were really busy (obviously). Clearly he was over scheduled. Finally I grabbed the doc between exam rooms and told him I'd been there since 1:45. Shortly after I was roomed. Doctor came in and did his own refraction and admitted the technician did it wrong. Gave me new rx. So I had two visits and an afternoon blown because of technician's incompetence. Not to mention time and material wasted by Costco. Now I have to go back and get another pair. I do not recommend this practice. No offense to Dr. Kurica but his staff needs training and improved dress code to look professional, and scheduling needs correction.

    Jeffrey H Singer, MD - Going in to hopefully to transform my view of the world with PRK surgery and experience the freedom of clear, unobstructed vision.

    Brought my son to Dr Singer on a recommendation from a friend and he's gone from 20/400 vision to…read more20/40 and still improving 4 months out. Comparing cost to a lifetime of purchasing glasses, it's very reasonable.

    I am completely satisfied with my experience & results with the Haley-Singer team. They exceeded…read morethe expectations of my imagination. 1 month after the surgery I now possess 20/25 vision. Beforehand, I could not see the big E during an eye exam without my glasses. At this time my eyes are quite healed, though they will continue to get better, and my vision is likely to further improve. I am not having difficulty with blurred vision or other common and relatively short-term post-surgery side effects. Summary of Haley-Singer pros: No hidden fees; great pricing; great service package; compassionate, passionate, experienced doctors; knowledgeable clinical staff at all levels; clear & concise verbal & written communication every step of the way provided by doctors and all clinical staff; flexible; comfortable & well-kept office locations. Summary of cons: I can't think of any suggestions for improvement, and I have not experienced any dissatisfactions at this point. Experience of pros in detail: No Hidden Fees: Originally, I went to another doctor for an assessment to see if I qualified for PRK. That doctor's equipment failed and he referred me to Dr. Singer's office. From the beginning, my first phone conversation with one of the Haley-Singer clerical workers, I had received very a clear and direct understanding of the expenses verbally and in documentation. Great Pricing: I found that receiving PRK treatment from Haley-Singer team was a few hundred dollars cheaper than from other clinics. Additionally, I found the medicine to not be a great expense. the necessary antibiotic and steroid eye drops were generic brands, as far as I understand after co-paying with my health insurance, so they were not costly. I did not fill the prescription for the pain or sleep medicine (not recommended by the doctor),so I am not sure about the costliness of those items. Great Service Package: The services are all included in the surgery fee, including the required follow up appointments. This was great because it relieved me of uncertainties regarding appointment scheduling and financials during the time of recovery. Moreover, I learned that if extra follow up appointments were needed, then they would most likely be given as part of the package deal. Compassionate & Passionate: Dr. Singer recommended that I get High Definition PRK based on my characteristics. Regardless, I selected to only get PRK because I could not really afford the upgrade since I just graduated from college. After learning about my situation he upgraded me to High Definition PRK and only charged me for getting standard PRK. The fact that he did this let me know he truly believes in his recommendations as a doctor and cares about his patients. Dr. Estrada conducts charitable work in a foreign country to help people obtain glasses that they would not otherwise be able to get for one reason or another. The fact of that in conjunction with my experience with her solidified my impression of her as being a most compassionate doctor that is deeply committed to medicine and humanitarianism. Experienced: Dr. Singer is recognized as having the most experience with performing PRK and LASIK surgery in the New Orleans region. I learned this from websites that share summarized stats of doctors work experience. The stats showed me that Dr. Singer has performed the most PRK & Lasik surgeries in the New Orleans area comparatively. This provided confidence and his work experience was recognized intuitively when meeting him and receiving the surgery. Knowledgeable staff at all levels: Each type of worker of the Haley-Singer team that I communicated with was able to answer my questions. They have the knowledge of their services understood like the back of their hand. Clear and concise communication: All verbal and oral instructions were clear and simple to understand. The documents are printed with great tact in mind. Each document is provided with extra-large print that is most helpful especially when trying to read during initial stages of recovery. Moreover, during the surgery, Dr. Singer explained each thing that was going to happen and its purpose. This was very reliving since the PRK surgery had some very strange experiences that were reminiscent of science fiction films. Flexible: As I said, I did not choose to use painkillers or sleeping medication for recovery. Additionally, I chose to use a bus to get home after the operation. Both of these things are not recommended for this type of operation by doctors, in general. Despite my going against Dr. Singer's recommendations, I received the utmost kindness, concern, and useful tips for making it through the painful and difficult experience my choice entailed. Comfortable and well-kept locations: Both locations host a very comfortable atmosphere. In particular, the atmosphere of the location where the surgery is conducted was soothing for me.

If they don't, then they shouldn't be handling anybody's insurance claims. Second, if you don't want to have people use certain insurance or parts of certain insurance, then post it on your website and take yourself off of the insurance company's website. I spoke with my excellent insurance I have since I retired as a federal agent. This insurance company (Aetna Preferred) informed me that you choose to stay on their website. My wife also has what they call an EYEMED Identifier number which specifically covers her for great eye care. My wife has been going to you for a while. Insurance seems to be an issue with your Business. I never have issues with other places.. If you choose just to take primary medical insurance, then let the customers know. Don't treat the insurance companies like a buffet And pick and choose what parts of what insurance are you going to take. Incidentally, The reason "I"only went there once was because of a similar insurance snafu with MetLife under my fed coverage. It took 20 minutes for the lady at the desk to figure out that I was covered. My wife continued to go there because she liked the convenience and the service. The people who handle insurance need to be schooled and how to handle claims and how to look up who's covered and who's not. Bottom Line. It shouldn't be a task just for a simple eye exam or any eye care. Feel free to call me anytime about this.
