Linda Tsai, MD, has been my ophthalmologist for many years…read more I could not go to her for six years, because of my insurance, so I became a "new" patient. May 22 I had an appointment with the full eye exam. Since I was last there (and they did find my earlier eye appointment situations), my eyes have not changed. Dr. Tsai said my eyes have settled down. She did the full eye exam, and all is well. Dr. Tsai is an incredibly approachable, friendly, knowledgeable and patient ophthalmologist. P.S. The address is 1040 N. Mason Road (and signage indicates that), but it's in the Medical Office Building #2, second floor, on the campus of Barnes-Jewish West County Hospital.

I thought everyone in the office was professional and caring from start to finish. It cost me $7,780. Dr. Gira explained the procedure and the upcoming timeline (should I choose to have the procedure) very well, answering several technical questions with concise and accurate answers. I've been told by several doctors in the past that LASIK is out of the question for my extra-sensitive eyes with thin corneas and larger-than-normal pupils. I was comfortable enough to let Dr. Gira operate on my eyes, and the outcome was outstanding. I was scheduled to arrive at 6:30 AM. My surgery was at 7:30 AM and first follow up appointment was at 1:30 PM the same day. At 1:30 PM, my eyes were a little swollen, but I could see 20/15 out of both eyes! I had no eye pain during or after the surgery. A week following the surgery, during my final follow up, the doctor attempted to further correct my visual acuity using the phoropter (big thing that goes in front of your face with lots of switchable lenses), but could not do so because it was essentially perfect. Dare I say my visual acuity is now better than I can ever remember or could have imagined. I had to put drops in my eyes (three times per day) for 4 weeks following surgery, which stung a bit for a very short time, but it's 100% worth it to be able to see so well. The outcome was so impressive, I recommended my brother have his eyes examined and fixed by Dr. Gira as well.

I've been going to the Institute for over a year to get shots in my eye for retina bleeding. I was told then making good faith payments is fine. On the 5th Sept. I paid off the last of the #318.22 I owed. A week later I had another appointment. Two days before that The Institute called me and told me I owed an additional $59. I was of course irritated but agreed to pay an additional $59. Then that woman sent me to Maureen who told me I owed not $59 but $400 more. I was angry now. But not having any options I agreed to pay that amount. Then two days later after arriving at the appointment I was informed that if I had to pay $400 plus then and there. Or well I guess I wouldn't receive the shot required to save the vision in my right eye. I was shocked! Where did this come from? I've been paying all along as the treatments were given. And in fact had been told I was now completely debt free to the Institute. This is when Maureen from a phone somewhere declared I was lying! I had no idea what she was talking about. I live on a fixed income and plan my money as best as anyone can. But The Institute had not only changed policy but failed to tell me until I arrived at the appointment. What Maureen claimed is entirely fictious. I'm now convinced she construed her call was a demand for payment clearly made and now I was lying. They claim they have a voice copy of our conversation. I hope they do. I'm not trying to get out of paying anything. Shame on her! The Retina Institute is not a fast-food joint. I can't go to another two blocks away or cross the street and go to Burger King. Shame on her. Shame on The Retina Institute for changing their policy and demanding upfront payment with two days notice and then leaving the notification in the hands of someone not capable of clearly stating the changes. Perhaps a name change is in order for The Retina Institute. How about "The Pay Upfront or go Blind Institute?" It's a little long, doesn't roll off the tongue but it is damn accurate.

I confirmed that they took my insurance. When I arrived at my appointment, I learned that it was at the Manchester location. After driving across town to the Manchester location, I informed the receptionist that I called the Arnold location initially, but they set my appointment for the other location, but never told me. And that even though there are separate phone numbers for the two locations, they both go to the Manchester office, but there is nothing noting this. She didn't seem to care or realize the confusion this would cause. I then handed her my insurance card when she informed me that they don't take my insurance. She explained that they take the medical insurance with my company, but not the vision insurance (this is an eye center). At this point, I cancelled my appointment and left. Huge waste of time!

Several test were performed by staff and a lot of waiting in between. It was more like a cattle call. Too many people scheduled in one day.

I recommend scheduling less patients instead of trying to see an exorbitant amount of people to pad their pockets.

I had my cataract surgery scheduled for both eyes of right eye December 3 and the left eye December 17. They needed to remeasure my left eye to confirm the lens that would be implanted that was confirmed on December 3 when I arrived for my surgery on 17 December I had to wait over two hours and was told they were waiting for my lens to come. They performed the implant and when I got home, I that they had implanted the wrong lens, which was confirmed the following day. I was in scheduled for a second on the 19th during that anesthesia I felt extreme pain I could see both doctors and I even exclaimed in pain. Dr. Amato had assured me that they would send a note to my of work stating that my driving restricted due to of during driving in the letter was never sent and they closed for Christmas break, causing me to lose pay. I am very dissatisfied with ophthalmology associates. They treated the whole process like an assembly line. I would look into other options before I settled on ophthalmology .

This facility is more then just an esthetician.to get a service done. This is a compound of health and wellness. I booked a tour to learn all about it. When I arrived to the desk met with Rose. She had a folder of all the information we were going to cover on services and pricing so I could focused in taking this all in. We took our time on the tour looking at each room and getting information on how to utilize under a spa pass, monthly membership or annual membership. There is a gym, a cafe, even an area to bring your laptop or books to have a quite space in a relaxing environment. On our tour we were even able to discuss the micro needing and Anteage with one of the technicians. Big fan of the salt rock and cryo offered. I have had great benefits from both of those services over the course of my lifetime. I.was so impressed after the tour I booked a facial for 1/26 and am looking forward to seeing how this compound can fit into my new world. Hard to put a price on wellness and happy to have health care benefits to do so. Purchased a spa pass $50.00 for the day to get you in the door and micro needling plus products Anteage $425.00. They do accept the HSA and FSA as well as credit cards for payment.

Not sure how I have been going to palm so long and haven't reviewed it yet!…read more Palm is by far the best massage and facial I have gotten anywhere. Went here on Monday for a spa day and started off with an amazing massage from Bronson. This was then followed by a custom facial with Jody. My face was breaking out pretty bad prior to this facial and it has been soo much better since! After those services, I had lunch in their cafe, followed by the salt room, cryotherapy, sound focus and biomat. The sound focus was new and something I had never done before. I m still super curious about if it works or not! By the end of the day, I was super relaxed and ready to go back to work the next day! I love that this place does not do tips so check out was a breeze. My hope is to go back monthly and take advantage of my full membership. My only complaint is that the cafe is not open on weekends!
