Not only is he attentive to your needs, but is also very professional. Laser eye surgery can make anyone nervous. However, Dr Grochmal puts you at ease throughout the 20 minute procedure. After the surgery, my eye sight was 20/15. Dr. Grochmal exceeded my expectations and I can assure you he will do the same for you.

Yearly exam time here. I must admit that since the passing of my previous eye doctor, the care…read moreregarding the front desk staff has gone down a bit. They seem a bit cold and standoffish. The service is okay, it's just the little things I tend to notice. The staff in the back that takes care of the initial vision assessments were okay. Dr.Etter, the new physician, is ok as well. Maybe being so used to an eye doctor who provided my vision care for over 30 years and is now gone is a difficult void for another doctor to fill for me at this time. All in all, I will continue to come here until a time I feel that I may need to move on to another provider.

I came in for an emergency appt after being in an accident and stated I wasn't at fault. In the…read moremiddle of my appt, a lady named Cindy from billing came in the back and wanted $200 and told me to pay it now, and request reimbursement from my insurance, this is AFTER I'm in the back being seen, provided insurance and claim numbers. I paid $200 out of pocket because they refused my insurance. And the dr wanted a follow up visit in a week. I contacted the front desk, got an appt for tomorrow, and asked what the expectation was and front desk told me $130 for follow up visits. I asked to speak with billing, reached the same Cindy, and from the very start of the call, she was interrupting me, yelling over me, extremely rude after I just wanted clarity on what the out of pocket expense is. I requested a supervisor, she claims she is the supervisor. And I said the way she speaks to people is inappropriate. She claimed I never provided insurance information. I gave the info to her in writing the day of. She had everything and I was forced to pay anyway. At this point, i asked her if she had any proof in writing she informed me she would bill my insurance, and she said no. Obviously not, because I paid. I asked to cancel the appt. She refused to cancel my appointment and decided to be petty and ask me for an email in writing stating I want the appointment canceled. I asked her why she needs an email and her response was "you asked me for something in writing so I'm asking you." That is the rudest associate I have ever encountered in my entire life, and I will never recommend this facility. You don't know how to speak to people and you shouldn't be working in billing.

The office is extremely busy, with so many patients and so much going on at once, yet Theresa handles everything with remarkable efficiency while still being pleasant, kind, and welcoming. Everything was handled so smoothly and efficiently, and Theresa seemed to keep everything moving without ever making anyone feel rushed. That combination of being highly organized, efficient, and genuinely pleasant is not easy to find, especially in such a busy medical setting. She is an incredible asset to the Wilmer Eye Institute and deserves to be recognized for the excellent job she does. Thank you, Theresa, for making a busy experience feel so easy and well cared for!

He saved my…read moreuncle's eyesight (I took him to all his visits and for his multiple surgeries) and Dr. Robin was very patient with him, taking time to explain things in a way a senior could understand. My uncle had cataracts that had hardened so bad they had to be broken up to be removed, and the pressure in his one eye was so bad he was at risk of losing his eye all together. Keep in mind he takes a lot of emergency cases other doctors can't/don't want to handle so he is often backed up, which means you will wait a while. But when it is your turn he will take the appropriate amount of time. He has a younger associate who will see you on some of the follow-up visits and he is great too. The desk and support staff are wonderful, and did a lot of hand-holding and were really thorough at getting all the complicated insurance straightened out, and getting him in the hospital ASAP. There were very helpful during the aftercare time, making sure he had all the right prescriptions lined up, and very responsive to phone calls. Highly recommend!!

He had a great bedside manner and was very knowledgeable. This last two visits he went to Dr. Andorsky and he was cool. I'm going to say there's a neutral feeling about his bedside manner, not sure if that's a good thing or not. Dr. Susai the Optometrist there is amazing though! She was full of energy, during our visit she kept us informed on how our eyes were doing. She was also very personable and kind, it felt like talking to an old friend. Going forward I will go to Dr. Susai as for my son I feel we are going to find an Ophthalmologist for him at Wilmer since he's no longer considered an adolescent.

He told me to take off my contacts and put them in the case he provided. When I opened the case, there was already solution in there, and it also looked dirty. I came back in telling him that this case had been used before, and he replied with "No, it is brand new, but I can give you another one". Please I have worn contact lenses for more than 6 years, I know what a new unused case looks like. Anyway, I took the new one he gave me and put my contacts in. After the exam, i put my lenses back on. He took the case back, emptied out my solution then put it back on his shelf. I mean talk to hygiene! He also did not wipe the machine with alcohol wipes, he just wiped it with lining paper. Then he said that my eyes hadn't changed so the old prescription stayed as is. I could not see well with my old prescription thats why I came in but after all he is the "professional" one. He also gave me a contact prescription which the type of contact happed to be discontinued but I had no idea, he did not tell me anything. I found out when I tried to order my contact lenses. I then called his office and he said I would have to come in for a fitting and I would have to pay to get a new kind. He's nice enough to give me half off but I'm taking my business elsewhere. This is my first and last time coming in. Very unprofessional and unhygienic environment.

I sought a second opinion with Dr. Repka at Johns Hopkins after having a mediocre experience with…read moremy daughter's pediatric ophthalmologist in York, PA (where I lived before moving to CA last year). It's only a 25-30 minute drive south to the Wilmer Eye Institute and our experience with him was phenomenal. The wait time was never long, 10-15 minutes max, which was important when bringing a one-year-old in for appointments. They have a separate waiting area for kids with toys and books, and all of the nurses and Dr. Repka have an excellent rapport with kids - not just my daughter, but her big brother (who was 5 at the time and worried about his little sister's upcoming surgery). Dr. Repka immediately affirmed that my daughter needed to have surgery and scheduled her a few weeks out. He was very reassuring to all of us as we approached the surgery and especially the morning of, when we had to be at JH's surgery center downtown. Both parents and big brother were allowed to wait with her in the pre-op area prior to the surgery. The surgery was successful and we had three great follow-up appointments. At the time of the third appointment, we told Dr. Repka we were moving to San Diego and he referred us to several of his colleagues for continued care. I just wanted my daughter to have the best care possible, and was very glad I made the decision to see Dr. Repka. There is not one thing I would change about the experience with this doctor or the Wilmer Eye Institute.
