I give much respect to Dr. Wade for being top notch in his profession. Ophthalmology…read more I am extremely paranoid when it comes to my Five Senses especially my eyes. A few years ago I was referred by my Optometrist to see Dr. Wade for cataract surgery for my left eye. Through careful and precise pre-op check up, Dr. Wade found in my right eye that I had crystals (talk about really sparkly eyes haha) and a portion of my retina had detached. I was rushed in surgery for the retina by a colleague of Dr. Wade's (Dr. Ma). I had back to back surgery, one for each eye. That was two months of sporting what looking like a really bad sucker punch to the face! I went back to see Dr. Wade today for another follow up (two years since the operations). Again, he was professional and informative. There is something about his personality that will put you at ease. Be ready to wait a LONG time to get an appointment with Dr. Wade though. Yes he is THAT good!! his wait list can be a year long!!!

Obviously, having any kind of eye procedure can be scary. The whole process with Dr. Chew and his…read moreteam was perfect. From making the initial appointment, the initial testing, clear outline of what the process was and what to expect, any concerns were alleviated. In fact, Dr. Chew advised against getting the more expensive lens as it was not suitable for me. When I arrived for the surgery, the process was simple and very efficient and the actual process seemed like it was only 15 minutes. Had my right eye done, which was so blurry, I could barely see. Absolutely amazed at the result. Had the left eye done one month later, again, perfect and I was already working on the same day on my computer. Highly recommended.

I hate to do this but I absolutely hated going to her office, in Richmond. It was years ago but if…read moreyou want a review, here it is. I ALWAYS waited a minimum of 2 hours! I made an appointment for 8am and at a quarter past 10 she still wasn't in the office. The waiting room is so tiny and was completely filled up. People were sitting on the floor (which wasn't unusual) and out into the hallway. About 10 am people started walking out and NOT making appointments to come back. I left, too. I never went back and found another dr. whose waiting room is pleasant and not crammed. Dr. MacIntosh also misdiagnosed my cataracts, saying I didn't have any! I had 2 cataracts removed within the year. I also have macular degeneration that was diagnosed before I saw her. She never discussed that. I now have hardly any vision in my right eye and poor vision in my left. I know she wasn't responsible for this but it did need immediate attention, which she didn't give me.

Each time saw the doctor for less than 5 minutes with no real explanation of what she was seeing as the issue, despite me asking specifically what was causing my problems. Staff seem aloof and trying to avoid contact with patients waiting. Probably because everyone has been sitting there waiting for hours. Now having cumulatively spent more than a full business day in her waiting room to have less than a cumulative 20 minutes of consultation with her, with no clear answer or relief from my eye problems I can not recommend her to ANYONE. Even my worst enemy. My time is worth something too. And I'm not going to spend it in her waiting room any more.

I called Matheson's office several times and the receptionist always gave an appointment a few weeks out even when I mentioned he hadn't slept in 5 days because of the pain.

Patients crowded on chairs in the hallway, too! They did very quick testing. Dr. Sexton comes into the room and deadpans, " You have glaucoma." I knew that I did not. So, I played along. She gave me some drops for the condition. When I returned, she said your pressure is down because you are taking the drops. I couldn't withhold it anymore. I said, "I didn't take the drops because I do not have glaucoma." She just was absolutely so deadpan, I wondered if she was a robot. No reaction. I went to my usual opthamologist. He laughed and said, " Just keep coming to see me and we will just scare it away!" lol. Would I recommend this doctor? Do I have to ask.....? This doctor and another doctor who was double billing.........! And they get away with it! Must be careful. They give the profession a bad name. I don't think they care. Nor about your reviews........... It's called arrogance.

I arrived at my scheduled appointment time only to be told by the receptionist that the office was…read moreclosed today . When I told the receptionist that I was booked for an appointment on this date he briskly replied that my appointment had been cancelled. I did not receive any contact from this office to advise that my appointment had been cancelled. The attitude of the receptionist was extremely unprofessional . I left the office and only when walking away did I think of checking to ask how they attempted contact so I returned to make an enquiry. Upon returning the receptionist seemed irritated that I was back and when I asked how contact was attempted they responded " I closed your file , now I'm going to have to open it again." It was clear this was a bit more effort than this person wanted to make. In essence the email they used was incorrect,and even though they had my phone number no attempt was made to ensure contact. There were some other pieces of the conversation that I won't take up space with, however it was the condescending tone of voice and attitude that prompted me to write this review. This person was rude, condescending and disrespectful towards myself. They indicated that they would be the person performing some of the procedure I was booked for. In that light and with a strong sense that the front desk staff is an indicator of the tone of the office I made the decision to decline any appointment at this office, I returned to my optometrist who referred me to ask for a referral to another ophthalmologist outlining my reasons for the request. I have never written a review before but then again I've never felt the need to .
