Both hubby and I have had cataract surgery performed by her (at her previous practice) and just love how she connects with her patients. She is an expert surgeon and takes the time to really explain all options and answer all questions. She is so approachable and we look always look forward to our appointments with her. The staff is equally as friendly and welcoming. Her new practice is inside the medical building next to the old Richardson hospital located on Campbell Rd near Collins Rd. Address is 399 W. Campbell Rd. She's located on the 4th floor. The office is beautifully decorated with a white textured wall at the reception area and with a predominantly blue color palette. Very soothing, with pops of orange color in the artwork and accents. We both are thrilled with results of our Pan Optic cataract lenses. We also both required a follow up procedure due to the uniqueness of our eyes. I needed a Yag procedure a few years ago and hubby needed his lenses polished post cataract. She even explained that the surface of his eye was similar to a raisin and needed to be polished to smooth it out. Now that's down to earth language that we can understand! We are so happy with Dr. Chu and you will be too!

I was charged $59 for the exam conducted by this untrained individual. The ophthalmologist? Then fraudulently signed off on this assessment as though he had completed the exam himself. Tried to speak to the office manager to tell her about my concerns and let her know that the doctor had spent less than 3 minutes examining and speaking with me. She approached me with her arms crossed and an attitude like she was Ceaser who had come down to deal with the peasants. She needs to be demoted to count widgets in the back room. This person who I believe to be named Stephanie has ZERO business dealing with the public. Money is too hard to come by to give any of it to these pompous, self important cheats.

Someone arrived five seconds before me (of course her appointment was set for 10 minutes after mine as doctors do, they set appointments back to back and then they can't fulfill those timeslots so you wait forever). The front desk told me that I'd be going after that person, since it wasn't fair to her that I arrived late. But we were both gonna wait in the waiting room for a really long time anyway. It wouldn't have mattered, which is what I tried to communicate. I disagreed with how they handled the situation and chose to reschedule my appointment. They proceeded to tell lies about me to the doctor and send me a letter telling me that I can no longer be a patient there. I've always thought the staff had way too much authority in this office, this confirms it. They were definitely on a power trip! Please stay away from this place.

Office seems to be all about money over anything else. Scheduled appt. as new patient for what I…read morebelieve is an allergy in one eye. I was called with an estimate and advised I would need photos, dilation, and that 100% would have to be paid upon the visit. First, they hadn't even see me, have no idea what is actually wrong if anything but are already piling up the charges with "what I'm going to need." A little fishy to me. Moreover, the BCBS EOB often shows I owe less than what doctors bill, so I asked if I could pay the majority of my bill but leave a little back pending the EOB. Absolutely not. Pay now is only option or we won't see you. I get money is important but when 90% of the 'new patient' conversation focuses only on that, that is very telling of what kind of office it is. Such a turnoff. So I cancelled my appt. That was met with a smug response that projected complete apathy on their part. On a side note, looking at their combative responses from other low reviews. It pretty much confirms my decision to cancel. UPDATE 5/28/2024: Their original response was something like 'Have a great day.' As expected they couldn't help themselves and deleted that with yet another combative response to their growing negative reviews. As before they take no responsibility for anything and hammer away at excuse after excuse. They show no record of my call because I use a pseudonym for fear of retaliation.

She is thorough and actually corrected a misconception that my husband was borderline glaucomic, when, in fact, it was called physiological cupping. Very professional, kind, and takes the time to sit down to ask, if you, the patient, have any questions. Dr. Ehrhardt truly has a wonderful "bedside manner"!!!! I highly recommend!!!!

After having cataract surgery in Nov/Dec, 2020 with Dr. Claire Chu I needed a follow-up procedure…read morecalled a Posterior Capsulotomy also known as a YAG. I've read that about one third of cataract patients require this follow-up laser procedure. Most need it within 6 months of the cataract surgery. I had noticed that my vision had deteriorated since my cataract surgery 3 years ago. During an annual vision exam with my optometrist he said I needed a YAG and so I went back to visit Dr. Chu. She confirmed that I did indeed need it and it was scheduled for one eye the following week and the other eye the week after. She even provided a recommendation for over the counter moisture eye drops and a coupon to use when purchasing them! Dr. Chu answered all of my questions and during the laser procedure talked me through exactly what was happening. My eye was dilated and moisture eye drops were given. The procedure was done while I was sitting in a chair with the head and chin pressed forward in their machine. There is a clicking sound and it feels like little BB's are being shot at the back of my head. It's not painful at all, just a weird sensation. I highly recommend Dr. Chu at Newman & Taub. I have used her services for a total of 4 procedures- cataract surgery and posterior capsulotomies in both eyes. I have complete confidence in her. She is friendly, professional and competent.

Jagger, who was in his 20s at the time, could not have been more right. How he knew this nugget of truth in his 20s is remarkable. I went to see Dr. Nettune about eye surgery. I liked the fact that the building has huge letters on it "Eye Institute of Dallas" because frankly if you need eye surgery you can't possibly see the addresses on the buildings. So that was a good start and much appreciated. The office was clean and modern. They practiced. social distancing in the availability of chairs, which I liked tremendously. I arrived before my appointment time but I did not have to wait too long to get started. All of the people with whom I interacted were friendly, professional, and very competent. I went through a battery of exams to assess my situation. It was all very thorough. When I was able to see the doctor I did not feel as if he was trying to upsell me or rush me into something I did not need. I told him my situation and my end goals, and we decided on a course of action that seemed appropriate. My surgery is upcoming as this review is written but I feel confident that I have made the right decision.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but I feel compelled to share my experience. I had both upper and…read morelower eyelid surgery performed by this doctor, and from the beginning, I found him to be impatient, dismissive, and lacking in bedside manner. He frequently talked over me rather than listening to my concerns. Unfortunately, my results were very disappointing. The outer corners of my upper eyelids opened up after surgery, leaving me with visible scars that remain tender. Even now, it is painful to apply eye makeup in those areas. In addition, my lower eyelids were left with noticeable bags beneath both eyes. The doctor attempted to correct the problem in the office, but the procedure was unsuccessful. Despite receiving local anesthetic, I could still feel pain during the treatment, and when I expressed that I was hurting, I was essentially told that the pain was "in my head." At each follow-up visit, my concerns were minimized, and I was repeatedly told that I still looked better than I did before surgery. That was not the reassurance I was seeking. I wanted my complications acknowledged and addressed with compassion and professionalism. After my final follow-up appointment, I decided I would not return. Based on my personal experience, I cannot recommend this doctor for cosmetic surgery. Patients deserve to be heard, treated with respect, and have their concerns taken seriously--especially when dealing with elective procedures and their outcomes.
