I had been doing well for over a year with no flare-ups, but this weekend, I developed a pretty severe case. Of course, the symptoms didn't manifest until Saturday morning, and I had an event on Sunday that I really did not want to miss. Fortunately, Dr. Cervantes was on call for the practice. I called the answering service and immediately received a callback. Dr. Cervantes could have easily told me to go to the ER and follow up with him on Monday. But he didn't. He met me at the office on both Saturday and Sunday and treated me in person. I was able to attend and enjoy my event on Sunday. Dr. Cervantes is a truly caring doctor. The office staff is equally as wonderful and got me in again on Monday to make sure we were headed in the right direction. I am truly grateful for the wonderful care I have received from Dr. Cervantes and his staff, and I cannot recommend Connecticut Eye Specialists highly enough!

The assistant who answered the call was successful in squeezing me in to see Dr. Seymour. She was so kind, and was able to locate what turned out to be a piece of metal in my eye and remove it without me feeling a thing and made sure I had antibiotic drops and lubricant at my disposal. It's been a full day now, and though it's not totally back to normal, my eye is safe. When the time comes for me to have my next exam, I'll be visiting Dr.Seymour.

I came to you with high expectations because of all the recommendations I received from former patients. I must admit they were right it was a pleasurable surgery experience from all aspects.

I never felt uncomfortable anytime during both of my cataract surgeries and for that fact I thank you and would recommend you to everyone who needs any eye surgery.

I went back to PV twice and they suggested returning to Modern Focus as the lenses matched the script. The Dr at MF said my vision changed and gave me less of a correction. I feel her 11/25 script was inaccurate but she said no and charge me $60 for the new one because I didn't buy glasses there. What a rip off! PV is making my new lenses for free. Now that's good customer service. Oh, and I was the doctor's first appt of the day and she arrived 15 minutes late to work. Like my time isn't worth anything? Needless to say, I canceled my next exam. I went to Dr Gould for years and always received excellent care and customer service. MF could use a little training on both areas.

The lady at the front desk greeted me by saying my insurance is not active. After realizing her mistake she said I needed to pay a $40 co-pay, which I did not have to pay. She said if I did not pay it now they would add a fee to the $40 when they bill me. The office manager was not much better, asking me to sign a form that a service that was covered, I still needed to sign that I would be responsible for it. Did nt make any sense at all - then she said I was good. Wow, I almost walked out due to their rudeness and miss reputation However, Erica made up for the unprofessional treatment the front desk showed me. And Dr Hardik Patel was kind and thorough durning his exam and treatment. I am sure that management has no idea how unprofessional the front desk staff is. Maybe they should send in a "Ghost" patient so they can see for themselves.

First off, I would like to say that I never spend time writing reviews, as I feel it's a waste of…read moretime. I am making an exception here as this was a horrible experience! This was my first time scheduling an eye exam in my life. They didn't tell me that the dilating could be a scary experience and that it would blind me so badly that I would not have be able to drive home. I had to call my husband who had to go out of his way that day to come and pick me up. After the appointment there was no follow up on what I needed to do. I called a couple weeks later and left a vm and no one called me back. I called again a couple weeks after that and left a vm and someone called me back and said the doctor gave me a prescription which was not true. They are now telling me I need to go pick up the prescription from them and then go shop for my glasses. Why do I have to chase them for the follow up directions on what I need to do? It's been a month since my appointment. But, they had no problem charging me hundreds of dollars for my visit. And, to top it off when I was freaked out due to not being able to see when I was at the reception desk checking out the girl was laughing at me. Very unprofessional practice. I will never return to them and I will be sure to share my poor experience with everyone I know. Do better!

When I said something, I was told: 1. We are really busy. 2. We are short-staffed. 3. You should expect to wait in the doctor's office. (No, I do not expect this.) 4. If you keep talking about this, it is going to delay things further. (WHAT?) Oh dear! What happened to common courtesy? What happened to respecting your patient's time? What happened to offering an apology instead of excuses?

I have no idea how long the wait actually is I could not wait longer than I did. I just got off the phone. They will make you wait for an hour and half. I was just told they schedule appointments for every 5-10minutes. This is poor office management. I canceled my appointment for my daughter after they wasted so much of my time. An hour and half wait if unacceptable and disrespectful. They need to re-evaluate their office management.

Story time: Working for a great Dr but terrible boss…read more I Wanted to Succeed for Dr. Bennett but Was Never Given the Chance I walked into this job excited and ready to learn. I knew I was joining during a busy time, but I never imagined just how much was changing behind the scenes. Multiple employees were retiring, the office was in transition, and the person assigned to train me was unavailable during a critical part of my onboarding. Before I had even been given the opportunity to fully learn the position, I found myself working on my own. Like any new employee, I asked questions, took notes, and did my best to keep up. I genuinely wanted to succeed. Instead of receiving the guidance and patience that most new hires need, I was let go before I had a fair chance to grow into the role. Looking back, it felt less like I was evaluated on my potential and more like I was expected to know everything immediately despite the circumstances. My hope is that future employees are given the training, support, and opportunity that every new hire deserves. A little patience and proper leadership can make the difference between an employee who fails and one who thrives.

I had an appointment with Dr. Noonan back in December of 2020 and unfortunately it was one of THE…read moreWORSE medical experiences I've ever had in my life--at a basic eye exam! Dr. Noonan was rude, curt, dismissive and diminishing (there was no bedside manner whatsoever)! I was a new patient and didn't realize that if I wanted an eye exam plus an exam for contacts that I should be wearing my contacts(never had to do this at my last eye doctor) and he pretty much yelled at me for not having them in/with me. He was so short with me throughout the whole visit and I just can't understand why. I really should've just walked out when I noticed his very pronounced rudeness but stayed so that I could at least get a new glasses and contacts prescription. The front office staff were "meh" as I was not impressed by them at all. Though there was one woman who helped sort my insurance out and for that I'm appreciative. While the office is new you can clearly see that some of their systems are antiquated. I'm so used to being emailed or texted or sent a message via an app like "My Chart" by my other doctors' offices that I expected the same from this office. Apparently they couldn't reach me via telephone call in regards to my insurance so I didn't realize I even had an issue until I arrived at my appointment. I can't speak for the other doctor in the practice but Dr. Noonan was horrible and I just can't believe that I could have such a bad experience at an eye doctor of all places. Dr. Noonan treated me as though he could not be bothered with someone like me, as though getting this basic eye exam was asking too much of him. Needless to say I will NEVER step foot into Stratford Eye Care Associates again and they will NEVER see a dime of my money. I DO NOT RECOMMEND AND WILL NOT RETURN! But perhaps this was the goal and if it was this practice succeeded!
