We are here in Boston for an extended visit and needed to see an ophthalmologist to follow up on him. Dr. Azin Abazari was recommended to us by his ophthalmologist in Naples, Florida.Dr Abazari is a wonderful doctor! Very gracious and very friendly. She fully answered all of our questions and made us feel comfortable and confident in her. We Wouldn't think twice about going back to see her for any problems that may occur while we are here!

I loved my cornea specialist (Peter Rapoza), but he has moved on. Required a different kind of help…read morefor a tear duct issue, and was wholly unimpressed with the specialist there. She did not listen to my concerns (I think in an attempt to keep her success rate with the procedure she performed intact). She tried to break the blockage in-office with a Xanax and far too little local anesthesia. It was insane. Note: the doctor I visited in Maine confirmed my suspicion on the blockage being real. I'm letting him deal with it from now on. I was going to stick with the new cornea specialist assigned to me for an annual visit. I was scheduled for a 2/19/26 appt with the new cornea specialist, and received a note that the date had to change. It said 2/26 in the communication. Shame on me for missing that someone had inadvertently noted 2027, not 2026. Made the journey from Portland, Maine to Danvers - in the snow, to learn about the mishap. I guess it was "my fault" for not noticing the error, but between the lack of concern from tear duct specialist and this - I am done. I had no idea how low the yelp reviews were for this practice. Always thought I was doing the right thing going to Boston. Done with that.

It has been almost 3 weeks since my LASIK procedure and I am in awe of my new eyes! I was very…read morenervous going into it, but looking back I had nothing to worry about! From the initial consultation, the staff were friendly, patient and understanding of my nerves. On the day of my surgery, Dr. Giles was great and made me feel comfortable the entire time. The procedure took less than 20 minutes and was painless. After the procedure I experienced very little discomfort and after a few days, any discomfort I did have completely went away. I experienced dry eyes for the first week, but since then that has also gone away. Being able to see is the greatest gift and I am beyond grateful to TLC for giving me the gift of eyesight. If you are nervous to get LASIK, know that I was too, but wish I hadn't been so nervous because in the end I had such a positive experience.

They performed preliminary exams to diagnose the possibility of surgery. After that, they scheduled the surgery date and, finally, on the day of surgery, they assisted me throughout the procedures and, most importantly, always kept me calm and confident about the surgery. The rest was just personal nerves, a fact beyond their control or mine. However, everything went wonderfully well and according to their plan. I am truly grateful for their professionalism and passion for the work they do. Congratulations to the entire team, especially Dr. Christina La, Brandy, the doctor who performed the surgery, and the friendly lady who performed the initial exams. "I'm sorry I didn't write your name, but you know who you are." Congratulations to the entire team! Excellent work and keep loving what you do. You are the best.

The doctors seem highly qualified, but the disrespect toward patients' time is worse than anything…read moreI've ever experienced. Though I arrived on time and had filed all my paperwork in advance, I had to wait 3 hours before the doctor saw me. Only 30 minutes of that was spent with a technician doing tests. You're also forced to repeat everything three times -- to the tech, a fellow (this is a teaching practice), and the doctor. When I objected, the doctor said "this is how we do things." In short, as other reviewers have said, if you have at least 1/2 a day to spare, even to get 15 minutes with the doctor, this is the place for you.

This truly felt like a factory: 15 to 20 people lined up in reclining chairs in the area where eyedrops are administered and patients are prepared for surgery. Nurses, orderlies did not generally introduce themselves and tell me their position or tell me exactly what they were going to be doing to me. Surgeons and anesthesiologists were generally more consistent with the introductory information. One orderly-I guess that's what he was; he didn't give me his name or tell me anything about what he was doing until I said in alarm at how rough he was "what are you doing?" -Was charged with moving me into the operating room. no introduction, no explanation of what was happening, just rough handling. I can only hope and assume that the surgery was top-notch done by my regular ophthalmologist from Lexington Eye Associates. The paper/evaluation that they give you after all of the procedures to evaluate the service is woefully inadequate; an envelope is not even included so that the patient would have to take initiative to mail this back. Clearly either Lexington eye associates or the Surgisite facility itself does not put patient satisfaction at the center of their operations. I heartily do NOT recommend Surgisite as the place to have your cataract surgery.
