Hands down one of the worst bedside manners I have ever encountered. I went to Dr. D'Aversa three times for a LASIK consultation. The first time it was the administrator's fault for misinforming me that my pupils would be dilated for the remainder of the day. Thus, I could not do the initial consult because I needed to go to work that day as I was told that the dilation would last merely hours and I'd be fine. From the moment I met him, I felt his curt responses, fast talking arrogance (and that is to say he IS definitely a great surgeon), and pointed toes towards the door while I had so many questions were a slap on the face. Needless to say, bc he's a very experienced doctor, I have him another chance. I went to my last appointment to finalize the consult. I had questions again. I felt that I needed to get my questions out as soon as possible so I accidentally cut him off at one point. This guy literally pointed his finger upwards, gesturing for me to wait and proceeded somewhat reprimand me for cutting him off. All while saying, "Wait. You cut me off. You didn't let me finish. Let me finish." - at that very moment, I crossed my legs, and allowed him to finish. As if he did not waste MY time for an entire hour wait?! Maybe he actually thought I couldn't afford it because I came in uniform every time? Who knows. It frankly shouldn't matter and you should never, ever speak to ANYONE who is not your child in this manner, especially, a grown woman. Is he a good doctor? Yes. Is he reasonably priced? 4800 for both eyes and a $600 possible touch up - payment plan can be arranged - so, is say go ahead if you're just concerned with your eyes. Me? His rudeness alone is making me take my business elsewhere. read more
