The office staff is nice, but the doctor needs major improvement. I would caution against using…read morethis doctor if you wish to be able to ask questions or express concerns. After the 1st eye's IOL lens provided poor distance vision, he justified its outcome by telling me my Astigmatism was in a 1 % and my eyes were wacky. I paid extra for a Toric lens for the 2nd eye, but the distance vision is still blurry beyond 6 ft. Because I had a bad experience during the 2nd surgery and expressed my concerns the following day, I was told I made him 'feel like dirt' , 'I wish I'd never done your surgery', and accused of yelling at him even though I could barely get in a word during the so called 'discussion'. Also, following both eye surgeries, the 1% was changed to a 'bit of an astigmatism' and I was told my vision was great even though I'm essentially blind while driving at night. He does not seem to excel at refractive calculations and was rude, arrogant, and narcissistic with me. He told me to go elsewhere because I asked questions, but he was way behind me on that decision since I want a doctor who listens to and respects me.

However, everything billing-related has made this experience the absolute worst experience. This may come off harsh, but the fact is Milan Eye Center is incompetent when it comes to billing, and they refuse to take any responsibility. They hire a 3rd party billing company overseas, so every time you call their office to discuss anything "billing-related," you are automatically transferred to their overseas contracted billing partner. Why in the world would you hire such an incompetent company to handle all your billing? This is a multimillion-dollar eyecare practice. We knew this surgery would happen, and switched insurance plans as the new plan had a specific flat in-network $1,000 copay for each eye for Cataract Surgery. The total surgery should have cost $2,000, plus the additional co-payments for other doctor visits/eval pre- and post-surgery. Guess what? Milan Eye Center never billed UHC. At the last moment, we were forced into taking out a $5,000 loan from CareCredit to pay for the Cataract Surgery. To make matters worse, after the surgery, Milan Eye Center billing third party started sending bills for $3,900 for the same surgery. ; First of all. Milan Eye Center will NOT perform any surgery until the costs are all paid off in full, meaning you cannot enter the surgery room, hence why we had to take out the $5,000 loan. So a surgery that should have cost $2,000 with insurance ended up costing $5,000 + now they want another $3,900. Cataract Surgery is not $8,900, including insurance; the total to them should be $10,900? After the surgery, we spoke with the insurance. Milan Eye Center never filed it through them, even though they are in-network. After a year, we finally paid off the $5,000 loan we should have never had to taken out... and now they still want $3,900... As someone who has worked in healthcare, what this practice is doing is unethical and illegal. [Review 742] - 15th Review of 2025
