Prior to the procedure, I needed glasses even to see "the big E." The feeling I had of a lump in each eye - gone! Colors and white are now brilliant. The doctor treated me with respectful care and attention, no rushing. Waiting time at appointments was reasonable, and the staff were polite. Prior to the procedure I was anxious and squeamish, and Dr. Wertheimer spoke calmly. During appointments before and after the procedure, Dr. Wertheimer had no difficulty administering eye drops and eye pressure testing. The procedure itself took place at the Ridgedale Surgery Center in Cedar Knolls, NJ. There the nurses were kind and patient. I was given numbing eye drops and intravenous sedation. There was no discomfort during the laser removal of the cataracts. For the lens implant, I felt a brief pain in the first eye. When I was getting eye drops for the second eye, I asked for extra numbing. I felt no pain at all that way. I had a one month wait between the first and second eyes. I would suggest a shorter waiting period whenever possible, because there is imbalance of vision between the eye that is done and the one that isn't done.

While purchasing $800 glasses from an optometrist once and getting partial coverage from insurance is a necessary thing, it is not always a budget friendly option. Fortunately there are online options available to order with a prescription. I know that these offices are reluctant to share prescriptions due to the increasing use of these online options. But they are in fact OUR prescriptions. When my daughter called for the PD #, NOT an expired RX, they would only offer it for $25. That seems absurd since it is her medical history. And quite frankly none of their business what she will do with her OWN records. But to assert that it would be a liability for them to give that number to her is asinine. Their conversation escalated to unreasonable proportions because of the staff's incredibly condescending responses. We will not be doing business there again. Unfortunately they couldn't see the value of doing this courtesy.

But let's talk about Janice who works the front office. She is hands down the absolute worst at customer service. I made an appt for my kid and. I stated my name when I called and gave her my child's info. She asked for group number and I gave it. All is well, or so I thought. She calls me the next day with an attitude before noon saying my child is not coming up in the system. I said well I gave the group number, let me give you the member id and see if that works. I give her the first letter and she says, "no that's what you gave me yesterday and I don't do this, someone else does this, but I'll see if it works." well first the letter of the id and plan are the same. Had she let me finish, she would have found out. Then she just nastier and nastier. Whose plan is this and addressing me by my wife's name, that I never mentioned. Well who is she, it says spouse, what's her relation, you told me that was your name, etc... Her tone, her rudeness, everything just rubbed me the wrong way to the point I immediately found another provider and canceled my appointment. The drs here are good, but not worth the horrible customer service.

My entire visit he just kept telling me about his geriatric population and how their priorities are different than that of a 30 year olds "vanity." Even went as far as telling me that I haven't been sick enough despite having multiple chronic health issues, that the hospital i went to "went over the top" and didn't know what they were treating, that the CT imaging result of dacryocystitis was wrong and he didn't believe i have it, yet he did his exam and turns out, i do indeed have it! If i could give zero stars I would. Save your time, energy and money and go to a specialist who actually cares about helping you get better.

After all, the practice is in Upper Montclair, so how bad could it possibly be? I arranged a visit on the same day I called, filled out all the new patient paperwork upon arrival, and saw both the nurse and doctor all in under an hour. I might have been able to shave off 5 minutes if the reception hadn't made so many typos in my paperwork, but at least they gave me a chance to review it before they entered wrong information into their system. Dr. Khan was very thorough and professional. The ease of making an appointment probably has to do with the fact that the practice has 5 physicians on staff.
