    Only great experiences from ordinary routine visits to surgery. Very experienced doctor that is…read moreable to answer questions and explain things easily and without hesitation and in laymen's terms. In addition, there is an attentive and accommodating office staff as well as at Fatima Hospital. Results have been great!

    I called in the morning and asked for an appointment, because I was seeing a really big floater in…read moremy right eye and since I am very nearsighted, I wanted to make sure that it was just a floater and nothing serious. I was told that they don't have any availability and the next appointment would be in 4 months. All they could do was write down my number and call me in case of a cancellation (they never called). Luckily, I called another ophthalmologist practice and the receptionist there knew that a big floater combined with heavy nearsightedness could be something serious, so she gave me an appointment within an hour. It turned out it wasn't a floater, but a tear in my retina and I needed emergency laser surgery that same afternoon. I was told it that it was a good thing that I came in that same day, because had I waited any longer it could have turned into a detached retina. I cannot fathom how an ophthalmologist practice does not know that a big floater in very nearsighted people can mean a retinal tear or detachment and therefore is considered an emergency. I have never encountered a medical practice that did not make availability for emergencies or at least told the patient calling with such urgent symptoms to seek medical help elsewhere that same day. Maybe it was for the best that this office didn't have any availability for me, I have serious doubts now about their competency.

    I love, love love Dr. Fargnoli. I went in because I've been having vertigo issues and my PCP wanted…read moreto have my eyes checked. Dr. Fargnoli was very interested in what I had to say about my vertigo and the visual disturbances I've been having. He's incredibly easy to talk to about just about anything. His staff is also incredibly nice. I got stuck in traffic one day and ended up an hour late. They weren't annoyed or anything and squeezed me right in. The office is pretty much an all-in-one. Dr. Fargnoli is also a Lasik eye surgeon, so you have that, and they also have a pretty big glasses shop. I thought I'd be paying more for glasses because it was a private shop and not LensCrafters, but it turned out to be the same price I would have paid anywhere else (and with a much hipper selection). Dr. Fargnoli didn't push me into glasses, which was nice, he said my vision was pretty good, but if I wanted them for night driving, I could get them. Overall, I'd tell anyone who needs an eye doctor around Providence to go here.

    If I could give zero stars I would! Had appointment for 245.... showed up early as this was my…read morefirst time and knew there would be papers to fill out. I overhear the lady next to me who states she's been here since 130p. It's 300 at this point I go back to the receptionist... who is on the phone with another patient and I hear her state to her" oh honey we will reschedule we don't want you sitting here waiting". Gee thanks! Where was my phone call asking to reschedule? So after listening to this phone call and being ignored another office personnel walked by and I asked her if he was behind she said yes 1.5 hrs behind!!! DON'T COME HERE!!! unless you like waiting hours for your appointment!! The worse Drs office I have ever been too!!!

    Folks, do your research before going to this place. I wish I had. This business is not BBB…read moreaccredited and it's not surprising why after my experience with them and after reading the BBB complaints. I had a disappointing and truly weird experience with this LASIK provider. The staff used high-pressure sales tactics, pushed a credit card I wasn't comfortable with, were wildly disorganized, and were unclear about scheduling and payment plans. The day of my surgery, they claimed I needed another eye exam--despite already having one during my initial consultation. They got me confused with another patient and the woman who worked there seemed like she was confused about everything happening around her. Wasn't feeling super confident at this point but I was already there and prepped. A minute before my surgery they suddenly decided I was no longer a LASIK candidate because of some major issue with my eye they doesn't seem to exist according my actual eye doctor and they didn't appear to see during my eye exam during the consultation. Weird? They recommended a different more expensive procedure instead. That was the final straw. I walked out and requested a refund for the deposit I already provided them. The overall experience was disorganized and sales-driven rather than patient-focused. I'm glad all of that happened actually because I didn't bother to look them up on BBB until after all this happened. Had I seen the BBB complaints before hand I would never have proceeded on the first place.

    2 months out and already have to go back to prescription glasses for reading and night driving. I…read morehave headaches all the time now that I did not have before and I am now afraid of night driving. I would not recommend having this procedure. This was one of my big mistakes. The Lasik Institute was very clean and the people were very nice. I called and have not received a return telephone call in regards to my concerns.
