I don't wear glasses (and have always had perfect vision; it's literally my only good quality) so I very rarely see an Ophthalmologist. After having my baby, I noticed I have very sensitive skin and eyes and have been developing styes. One got so bad I had to actually see a doctor for it. I looked like someone punched me with a side of Quasimodo. It was that bad.
My mother-in-law is pretty much the queen of northern Wantagh/Levittown and knows the best when she sees it... so I, of course, asked her for the recommendation. Right away she gave me Dr Greenberg's info. I called in the late afternoon and got the first appointment the very next day. Amazing, right? Too good to be true, perhaps?
When I arrived at 7:25, I was the first patient and was taken in right away. The optometry assistant (I work in healthcare and have no clue if that's an actual title- is that what they're called? I'm sorry if I'm completely butchering the entire profession) was SO nice and knowledgeable and quick! You should have seen him typing on his iPad. Fast Fingers McGee. I was then taken to another waiting room and then a different room after that. My only gripe- expect to wait a little bit for the doctor. I was in and out in one hour but, again, I was the first patient. I imagine this place gets busy but as long as I always get an early appointment I think I'll be fine.
When I finally met Dr Greenberg, it was like seeing an old friend. I overheard him talking to a different patient and he was asking how her family was. You could tell he truly loves what he does and takes an interest in his patients. As a nurse I know how rare this is nowadays.
Dr. Greenberg prescribed me a special type of eye drop and my stye cleared up in two days.
This place is really great. The staff treats you like family. It's so easy to get an appointment. And it's literally so clean you could eat off their floors. Color me impressed because ModernEyes did not disappoint!
If you live in Levittown/east meadow/Wantagh/massapequa, I highly suggest you use ModernEyes for all your eye care needs. read more
