We waited over 2+ hours before the surgery for no apparent reason. I had cataract surgery last year in an hour, tops. Do not use this practice.

My office visit was $135 which is way less than my GP charges my insurance company. He is professional and caring. He never rushes or brushes off questions you may have. He is a Georgetown graduate and has lots of pedigrees adorning the wall of his waiting room. Washingtonian magazine likes him too. He has been on the Top Doctors list many times. Parking can be a pain with the construction going on down the street that takes away many of the metered spots. There is a lot behind the office that charges $5 for the first two hours, but it fills up quick. I had an 8:30 appointment so I had no problem. I plan to stay with Dr. Baum. He is worth every penny!

Dr. Baum is great. Woke up one morning and my eye hurt. I called and was able to make an…read moreappointment immediately for that morning. When I arrived, he examined me and told me what was up. He was great b/c he took his time to take out an booklet & show me exactly what happened. Rather than prescribing me a medicine, he explained that a hot compress four times a day was better than any prescription medicine out there. Plus, it'd save me money & a trip to the pharmacy. I liked Dr. Baum b/c I got an immediate appointment, & he was so friendly. For 15 minutes, my appt. was $110.

Now for the past two years I have been seeing Dr Gupta. All three doctors are gems. I've never had a problem, making an appointment or any problems with the receptionist. I have found that making an appointment at 8:30 in the morning is the key to getting in and out quickly. They really do a thorough job with all the routine checks for a standard eye exam. My mom has glaucoma, so it's important for me to keep a check on my eye health. I've got that covered here for a small copay with my insurance.

I went back to him when I felt I was going blind and he dismissed me with having dry eyes. I say this not b/c I want to say anything negative about him or his practice, but to hopefully help others who, after having cataracts removed, need a simple and easy fix. Luckily, I trusted my gut and sought another opinion and found a doctor who told me I just needed laser surgery to remove the clouds behind my lenses in the eyes. What a relief after thinking I was going blind. Unfortunately, Dr. Hammer has lost me as a patient. My eyes are great now, vision restored and I want others to know that if, after cataracts are removed, your vision is blurred, there are successful options. BTW, I called Dr. hammer to discuss this with him, but he never returned my phone calls.

They were clear on their instructions and they accepted our FSA card. I'm not sure why they haven't had any reviews. Now that I think about it, it seems like most of their clients are seniors. In fact, Dr. Hammer said that he doesn't really get new clients. Dr. Hammer was recommended by another local doctor from MedStar Hospital.

I've "only" been seeing Dr. Hendrix for about 25 years... so if you need a more comprehensive…read morereview you may want to find someone who started seeing him when they first opened their doors back on Rollins Ave... LOL First, and foremost, Dr. Hendrix is an expert in his craft. He is efficient, knowledgeable, and most importantly leans on the conservative side. I started seeing him in the late 90's when I had virtually no issues with my young eyes, and been with him as I went through middle age, with floaters and now glasses, a corneal injury and several other maintenance procedures (i.e., removing concretions), and allergies. He sometimes spends more time talking you out of doing something rather than doing it, but his advice has always been spot on. He talked me out of a YAAG floater surgery which later turned out to be more controversial than the doctor peddling it was making it seem. His office staff is very hand-picked. They lean towards being more reserved and paced, and everyone is friendly. The front desk can at times seem abrasive, but there is a heavy load on them and once things quiet down they're very friendly, and very helpful (especially on forms, payment, etc). The exams can and do take a long time... but they are VERY comprehensive. It was his office that gave me my first OCT exam, plus a few other firsts. All in all, he's THE eye doctor that everyone in my family goes to now, including emergency cases. The wait is definitely long... but if you have a more convoluted or sensitive issue with your eyes, definitely don't roll the dice with just anybody. Forgot one thing: Dr. Hendrix started out in an older smaller office back on Rollins ave in Rockville, but he's since moved to this new Tower Oaks location. The new office is top notch, comfortable and easy to get to from all points north or south of Exit 4 on 270... along with plenty of parking and space to fit patients as they transition between tests.
