While the actual interaction with the ophthalmologist Dr. Kurica was pleasant enough, I felt the…read morestaff unprofessional and the scheduling of appointments severely lacking in customer service. Bathroom was in need of attention. It is a large practice. I wanted to go to the uptown office but because I wanted evaluation for cataracts, I had to go to the Metairie office. I was seen by a technician who wore sweatpants as a uniform. Seriously? She did the refraction. Several times I told her that the images were NOT clear to me. Eyes examined and seen by Dr. Kurica who said I didn't have cataracts. Great. Given an rx and he said, "It's practically the same as your old one; I just tweaked it a bit". Got glasses made at Costco and the rx was WAY off. Costco said there was a BIG difference between previous rx and new one. Definitely not a "tweaking". Tried to get a return appointment for correction and was told I had to see same doctor and got an appointment for 3 weeks later! For second visit, the waiting room was completely packed. Several people in wheelchairs. Was seen by same technician as first time. When I explained my situation she immediately blamed Costco for error. When I pointed out that the rx he gave me was significantly different from my previous rx, in spite of him telling me he only "tweaked it", she said, "Well his idea of tweaking is bigger than our idea of it". ???? Went back to waiting room but it was so crowded I chose to wait in the hall. Looked like a COVID factory in there. My appointment was at 1:45. By 3:00 I still had not seen the doctor. I asked a few times about the delay and was told they were really busy (obviously). Clearly he was over scheduled. Finally I grabbed the doc between exam rooms and told him I'd been there since 1:45. Shortly after I was roomed. Doctor came in and did his own refraction and admitted the technician did it wrong. Gave me new rx. So I had two visits and an afternoon blown because of technician's incompetence. Not to mention time and material wasted by Costco. Now I have to go back and get another pair. I do not recommend this practice. No offense to Dr. Kurica but his staff needs training and improved dress code to look professional, and scheduling needs correction.

LASIK eye correction surgery. Dr Singer is known throughout the region for being the best at…read moreLasik. I first heard about Dr Singer from my boss and a close friend of mine who both had the surgery done by this Dr. For a few yrs I've been interested in the surgery and recently I finally inquired about it. There are a few companies in the area that specialize in Lasik, but there are so many hidden costs that are not mentioned until it's too late. As advertise by multiple places, $299 an eye is not the actual cost. Expensive exams, medications, Dr visits, and different eye strengths, can cause the price to reach higher then what is in your initial budget. I signed up for the free consultation and met up with the office staff, and I was given a go ahead that my eyes were healthy enough to get the surgery. I was given two options to go with for the surgery but the doctor saw that I may have glaucoma so he told me that the bladeless version of Lasik would be best for me, due to the pressure that would be involved in the surgery. The bladeless surgery is a bit more pricer then the normal Lasik surgery. Dr. Singer knocked off $500 of the price and I decided that since it was only a few dollars passed my budget, I would still be able to get the surgery. On the day of the surgery I went in for 3 o'clock. I was given medication to help me relax and an hour later I was ready for surgery. I was scared out of my mind before the medication kicked in, but once I relaxed I had no worries. The first step of the procedure I was placed on a table for the first part of the surgery which was the part where my the machine is placed on your eye and the pupil is cut. It only took less than a minute for each eye. The staff walked me over to the second table where the flap was folded back and the laser did it's magic. That step only took about 4 minute for each eye. And believe it or not I was finished. The prep time and waiting for the meds to kick in is the reason there is a 3 hr duration. The recovery time for my surgery was only that evening and night. I was given sleeping pills right before I walked out of the doctor's office. By the time I got to my house I was ready for bed. It was extremely recommended that I sleep through the night and that I did. The next morning I awoke and my vision was a bit blurry but that was only because I had transparent bandages on my pupils. The last step for the whole process was to get the bandages off of pupils that I did not even know I had on. I was only told that I had bandages on my pupils when I got them off on this follow-up day right after the surgery. Once they were removed the blurriness that I experienced that morning and immediately after, was gone. My vision correction surgery, was complete. It's been 4 weeks since my Lasik and I am extremely proud of the decision I made to get the surgery, there are no regrets. This is my personal experience with Dr. Singer, of course everyone situation and cost may be different. Money spent..... $150 (for the expensive photos that were needed to be taken for eye health issues. That was my deductible from my health Insurance plan that the doctor was able to use) (LASIK is not covered by any insurance plans) $150 (the eye evaluation after it is determined that I was a candidate) $3150 (Bladeless LASIK...the price for both eyes, but the Dr. gave me $500 off) $418 (medication, $210 eye drops, $192 for eye drops, and $16 for sleeping pills, but with the coupons that the doctor gave me at the pre-op, my medication cost ended up being only $50. (Please get those coupons!!) My current vision should last 10+ yrs depending on my aging process. I've had not one problem since the surgery. If I have to get my eyes corrected again, I will definitely be back to Dr Singer.

She…read moremisdiagnosed my mother for an eye disease and treated her with high doses of steroids, which took a major toll on her overall health. I had a chance to meet her at what wound up being my moms last doctors appointment with her. I couldn't understand how the numbers she based my moms plan of care on seemed to fluctuate and her biopsy was inconclusive yet she was treated so aggressively. Dr VIves was very defensive and it didn't sit well with me that her doctor seemed to not take my mom's health all that seriously. When we got a second opinion, the doctor was unsure that my mom had the disease but highly recommended coming off the steroid. At about the same time my mom asked Dr Vives to be placed on a different medicine and Dr Vives obliged. Unfortunately for my mother, she was told the incorrect dose, which after a matter of weeks ate at my mothers colon and she now has an ostemy bag. A year after being treated and being weaned off the medicine she placed her on, my mom shows no signs of having the disease that started this all off. It breaks my heart constantly that this woman, who appears over worked and under staffed (with all the patients it appears she can afford to hire more help) treated my moms health so carelessly like she was just a number or maybe even just a dollar. It concerned me the number of kids she saw. If you decide to see this doctor or are seeing this doctor, make sure you get a second opinion ASAP. I personally can't say anything nice about her from my experience and I'd give her zero stars if I could. KKi

You have maybe driven by this place a zillion times and got glasses somewhere else, GET YOUR NEXT…read moreGLASSES HERE! I have gotten my last couple glasses at America's Best & Visionworks and they are both garbage compared to MyEyeDr. My new glasses from MyEyeDr are maybe the best fitting glasses I have ever had. Kellie took a lot of time with me, trying on frames and then making sure the progressive lenses were perfectly measured perfect to my eyes. I did get my prescription from Dr. Ashley Delcambre at Oschner at Clearview City Center, who I also highly recommend, but the Oschner glasses shop did not take my glasses insurance and the lady there told me MyEyeDr took my insurance so that's where I went. Fitting glasses is a skill, not something that everyone gets right, but Kellie really nailed these new glasses. I felt really good about the experience when I ordered them and I wanted to write this review then, but thought the real proof is in the pudding when I actually got the glasses on my face. It took a couple weeks for them to come in and they are absolutely perfect. I wanted to get a pair of Meta/Ray-Ban glasses, but wanted to make sure we nailed these new lenses first on the glasses I expected to be more my "daily glasses". Since these glasses are so perfect I'm going to go back tomorrow and order those Meta glasses, but only if Kellie is working. Roberta the GM was also great. I did not use their doctors. Go to MyEyeDr and see Roberta and ask for Kellie to help you with your glasses. If she's not there, find out when she will be and I think you'll be as pleased as I am.

Fast forward to today, I called this morning to verify the appointment and to make sure everything was ok given the weather. I took time off from work, took my babies out of the house in this cold just to be told that they don't accept my insurance, that I'd have to pay 120.00 per child to have them seen. I am furious because I asked several times if the insurance was accepted. I spoke with 2 people in the office and they are both incompetent!

Long behold, never called me back and I waited hours. I called back and she acted all surprised. I asked her if she had any updates and she said "nope" and asked if she had my member ID number for my insurance that I left earlier on the phone to see if possibly she entered it in wrong, she snapped and said "mam' you need to take two steps back." Which is very unprofessional and inappropriate. The lady at the front desk was trying to "verify" I had insurance ok, sure I understand but it doesn't take more than 4 hours and for me to call again to ask is unprofessional. Even my insurance company said it takes less than 10 minutes for her to verify. I told the women from the jump that I already have approval, the insurance company already said so and it's in the system. I can guarantee since I've been attending my eye dr for years. The fact she couldn't get my member ID number correct nor my name, and when I tried to tell her it again she said that wasn't the issue.. but yet had difficulties "pulling me up in the system to verify". Funny enough I called on 7/2 made an appointment with another lady, she has no issue finding me in the system or verifying my insurance and took 5 minutes if that. I had made the appointment for 7/13 but I had to cancel, and today I tried to contact again. I've been going to my eye dr for years now outside this state, never had an issue. Doctors here are great, but front desk worker was disrespectful. Took my business elsewhere. Plenty of eye doctors to see in the city. No need to come here & deal with someone that miserable.
