She was extremely attentive, knowledgeable, thorough, and patient. I never felt rushed, and I left feeling confident that we had a plan tailored specifically to my needs. I also really appreciated her staff, who were incredibly patient and helpful as I learned to use a new contact lens. I highly recommend Dr. Dorsam and her team.

And she took the time to understand the needs of my "middle-aged" eyes with a complicated prescription. I started with a pair of computer glasses, and intend to go back for a pair of driving glasses. From Susanna, who fitted my new glasses, to the young lady behind the reception desk, all were professional, welcoming, and helpful.

I was told how to sign in at the kiosk and scan the required items. I really didn't have much of a wait, though every seat was practically filled. When I got to the back, all of the staff members that I had to either speak with or be examined by were phenomenal. They were professional, pleasant, caring, attentive, and some were funny. Everyone listened to my questions and concerns and provided answers that really helped me feel more comfortable. I really appreciated the surgical coordinator, Articia, who eased my mind and ensured my appointments were set up promptly. She was super great! Dr. Joseph Vojtko, aka "Dr. V," was very professional, caring, and you could tell he knew his stuff. He answered my questions before I could even ask them. My surgeries went well on both eyes, and I'm now singing, "I can see clearly now the fog is gone!" I certainly recommend this location.

My Maryland Vision Certification was filled out without an issue. I look forward to seeing Dr. Gidlund again in the near future.

The entire team has always been professional, friendly, and genuinely caring. I see Dr. Shin, and she's absolutely wonderful. She has such a calm and kind bedside manner, really takes the time to explain everything, and makes sure I never feel rushed. You can tell she truly cares about her patients' comfort and eye health. It's rare to find a place where you feel both cared for and well taken care of, but Catonsville Eye Group nails it every time. I wouldn't trust my eyes with anyone else!

I went here (6/19/2026) for my eye exam and to get new glasses after finding this practice through…read moremy insurance. I had a good experience having an eye exam and picking out my glasses. I was told that my glasses would be ready in two weeks or sooner. After two weeks passed I called (7/7/2026) to check on my glasses. I was put on hold for an extended amount of time as they looked for my glasses in the shipment they just received and then told that the glasses should be ready next week (7/15/2026). I expressed concern that I was told they would be ready in two weeks, as I immediately suspected something was wrong. The person who spoke to let me know that glasses take 3 weeks and even if it was 2 weeks they were still within a 2-week timeframe because they "don't count weekends." This was an odd way to address my concern, but this must be how the practice operates. This may be something for new patients to consider. Once I get my glasses, I won't return to this practice as waiting almost a month for my glasses doesn't work for me. I would rather go somewhere else.

When I went to replace my progressive (distance) glasses with prism lenses (to correct double vision) and computer glasses without prism, they quoted a price of $6,200, including a charge of $4000 for the prism refraction with lenses made by Zeiss. The next day I discovered that COSCO Optical can provide similar frames and same lenses for only $330 (20 times cheaper) with lenses made by COSCO Optical Lab. I am not aware of any complaints by other customers about the quality of prism lenses made by COSCO. The prices at Medical Eye Center are way out of line.

I stopped in before shopping to see if I could get an appointment and was able to see Dr. Jan right away! Dr. Jan was friendly and professional the whole time and addressed all of my concerns about my vision. In the end he told me I was in between my current prescription and the next so I could go either way but since I've been noticing that my vision had worsened I could move to the next prescription. This was a great first visit and I will definitely be back even though this location is a bit of a hike for me. Highly recommend Dr. Jan!

Terrible Experience & Unprofessional Handling of Insurance…read more I arrived at this office dealing with severe eye irritation that left my left eye swollen shut and highly sensitive to light. Unfortunately, the care and professionalism I received matched the physical pain I was in. Upon entering, the staff was unapproachable and cold, and Dr. Jan addressed me only by name to give staff directions in front of me while entirely skipping a basic greeting. Before my exam, which included a painful laser photo that left me needing a moment to recover. I explicitly verified my insurance coverage again. Despite having called ahead to confirm insurance, receiving two text reminders, and having the appointment confirmed day-of, the receptionist shouted across a crowded, very small waiting room immediately after my procedure: "You can't see the doctor without paying out of pocket. We don't take "Name of insurance!" She literally yelled outloud the name of my medical insurance carrier. When I reasonably asked why my appointment and insurance had been repeatedly confirmed beforehand, the receptionist simply shrugged her shoulders coldly and demanded I leave, while Dr. Jan closed her office door to avoid the situation steps away from me. To be subjected to public humiliation while in acute physical pain, with zero empathy, compassion, or accountability from the staff or the physician is completely unacceptable. I left in pain and deeply disappointed by this establishment. Avoid this office inside of Costco if you expect basic respect and competent administrative communication.

The appointment process and check in was timely and easy. I felt from my first interaction with Dr. Stanchel, she was cold and off putting. It could have been a bad day for her but she never warmed up and made me feel cared for. I knew I would not return when she was untruthful with me. When she provided me with an updated prescription for my glasses and I asked her for my pupillary distance measurement because I order lots of glasses online and that is required. She told me she couldn't give it to me?? I was unsure why as it is needed to order any pair of glasses. It felt like the problem was I wasn't ordering her IMO over priced frames so instead of saying that, she said she didn't have it. Well how about get it? I have had multiple providers give me that information whether I was ordering glasses from them or not. If I had been ordering glasses with her that day how would that have happened without my PD and where would she get it from? I cannot support dishonesty.

I'm new to the eye glass world. It's only recently that I felt I needed an eye exam. Based on…read morereviews I went to Dr. Stanchel. Setting an appt online was easy & straightforward. From the get go, I was immediately greeted upon walking in, no more than a 5 min wait to sign paperwork, & then we immediately got started. Being a novice, I was questioning everything and Dr. Stanchel had all the patience. The facility is clean and all the equipment seemed top-notch. The exam was thorough...a lot more so than I anticipated but I appreciated it. Nice frames to choose from and about a week for the glasses to come in. More expensive than I anticipated but I didn't have a good reference to work from. Even still, based off the experience, I'll be back. In fact, my husband needs an exam so we'll get around to that eventually w/ Dr. Stanchel. Only thing that would be nice is if we have the option to choose an appt online for the eye glass pickup.
