I was given a very thorough eye exam by Dr. Dipal Shah who is an Ophthalmologist, Corneal…read moreSpecialist & Cataract Surgeon. Following the exam, she advised me that I have cataracts and we discussed whether I wanted IO lenses to correct my severe myopia (nearsightedness) or IO lenses to be able to see up close. IO stands for IntraOcular, meaning inside the eye. There are different lenses for the choices. Dr. Shah said she does the procedure in 2 locations, Union and Elmwood Park. This makes me wonder why the name of the business has the words "& Surgery Center". The website name comes up as newjerseyvision.com Dr. Shah said that her Surgical scheduler would call me the next day, but actually it was over a week later. As I was leaving, I stopped at the front desk and asked for a printed copy of my Rx for eyeglasses. I always carry a Rx for glasses in case I'm out of state and my glasses break or get lost. Also, I wasn't sure when I would have the cataract surgery & my glasses needed replacing. The person at the front desk said that the Rx hasn't been finalized yet. I asked her to mail it to me when it was. She said I would have to pick it up in person and sign for it. She didn't know when it would be ready. When the Surgical scheduler called me the next week, she told me that the Dr. had an opening in 2 weeks and explained that Original Medicare only covers the basic lenses and that the ones I need are more expensive and also the facility charge for the closer location to me in Union - 4 miles away charges a higher fee than the Elmwood Park facility 23 miles away from me. My Supplemental Insurance only covers the balance of what Medicare covers. The cost to me would be about $5,500. for both eyes. I asked her to repeat that. She said it's partly because I have an Astigmatism. I was in shock. Others who've had cataract surgery per lens for the "better" lenses. I said that I would have to think about it and completely forgot to ask for my Rx for glasses. This becomes detailed to show why I gave a 2 star rating. I called a few days later for it and after many rings (during normal business hours), it went to voicemail; I left a message with all the pertinent information. No one responded. I called again a few days later and again, had the same result ~ no one responded. Each time, I had pressed the option for the front desk. The next time I called, I pressed the option for Optical for glasses and someone answered. I gave her my name, the date of the exam & explained that I've been trying to get my written Rx for over a month and asked if she could help me. She asked when I would be coming in and I said around 12noon; she said it would be at the front desk. When I arrived (just before noon), no one at the front desk could find it. A nice woman at the front desk asked who I spoke with; I said I didn't ask for her name but it was whoever answered in Optical. I relayed the conversation from that morning and she looked me up in the computer & said that it hadn't been finalized yet. I said "that's unacceptable"; I then explained about leaving 2 prior messages and no one responded and that is just not right. I said that I wasn't leaving without the Rx. As far as I could tell, she did not check with the Optical Dept. but messaged the Dr. and told me to take a seat. The Dr. called her back about 10 minutes later; after another 10 minutes, she said it was printing out. Then she clearly explained that my eyes are only going to become worse without the cataract surgery. I said I understood that. She gave me the paper to sign acknowledging receipt of the Rx. I never raised my voice. I feel that they caused all the delays to get me to sign to have the cataract surgery OR to use the Optical Dept. in their office for eyeglasses. I remembered from years prior that the latter is supposed to be a separate business from an eye Dr. and that's why she didn't contact them. My rating for Dr. Shah would be 5 stars for the exam and consultation and Zero for the BUSINESS. It's most likely that the Management has set protocol for the employees and associates. In my opinion this felt like deception. I will be going to a different ophthalmologist.

I've been a patient since 1980 - through 4 doctors and 4 offices. I think I'm done. The (medical)…read morework seems good (I've had cataracts and glaucoma treatments), their equipment always the latest, but the administrative support or infrastructure is abysmal. so much so that it is hard to get to the actual medical services. 1/2 of my appointments in the last 2 years have been cancelled (I go 4 times/year) . re-scheduling by telephone is nearly pointless (my last attempt involved 4 hangups and aggregate holding time over 45 minutes. In person experiences for clerical issues like checking in, scheduling followup, updating insurance forms, etc aren't much better (at least they can't hang up), waiting typically 10-15 in line (last 3 visits), even when there are only 2 or 3 patients present. It's a shame to judge medical services on clerical performance, but if you can't schedule an appointment or see the doctor without excessive hassle, the skill of the doctor becomes less and less relevant. I'm looking elsewhere.

He also has a knowledgeable staff who explain what they are looking for as you walk through the different exams. When it comes to picking out new frames and insurance questions, Amy Shabat, provides the best personalized service. She is a most qualified optician who has a warm personality along with fashion sense. She helped me select the frames that I love and that look good on me from their extensive frame selection. Thank you for a positive experience.

5 stars, Hands Down…read more I don't know what these negative reviewers are talking about. They're all 3-10 yrs old and since this practice has multiple locations, maybe they're talking about locations in Hudson County back in the day. I've always gone to the Millburn office and have never had any of these problems. Sometimes there's a bit of a wait, but these doctors spend a lot of time with their patients and it's reasonable they might get backed up especially at the end of the day. They absolutely do NOT take walk-ins at the Millburn office, and since the reviews here about walk-ins are so old, maybe they've since discontinued that practice at the other locations. I've been seeing Dr Walsman for years, and he is top-notch. Very well-credentialed and experienced, but can explain complicated things in a very accessible way. He is also a very nice person and genuinely cares about his patients. I lived and worked in NYC for 15 years and went to a highly rated ophthalmologist and had specialty care a cataract surgery at New York Eye & Ear Infirmary. Dr Walsman outshines them all. He's operated on my eyes twice already (cataract, and cataract correction of the eye I had done on NYC). The difference was night and day. For both medical and surgical eye care, I cannot recommend Dr Walsman highly enough.
