The only downsides as I see it were that I don't have a great deal of experience with any of these people so it is difficult to fully put my heart into a recommendation, and that the information I was given lacks much detail at all about the particular eye procedure which is being offered to me."

I got an appointment very quickly. Will have a follow up appointment with Dr. Peracha in 6 months as a follow up. Then will have an appointment with Dr. Auer in May if next year. I feel my eyes are getting great care from the ophthalmology department and makes me feel much better."

But this is the first time he told me my right eye is doing very good and my left eye is not and I don't know how long I have to do these shots. I don't know if I have to do them for the rest of my life or what. But at least he did give, I've been going to him a long time and I keep asking. I ask his nurses and I ask him and they blow me over. This was the first time. I wish you had another doctor. [REDACTED] told me I used to have her. She was one of the best."

    "My husband and I arrived early to the appointment. I was medicated, which is not normal, because I'm a freak about my eyes, especially close contact, so I was prepared and relaxed prior to arrival to my appointment. In the beginning, the gal that roomed me appeared anxious and I felt rushed along. The next gal took me for some eye imaging, and I felt she was impatient with me, then putting pressure on my head. I wasn't comfortable with that. Looking back, I'm sure if she said: "in order for me to get the best image possible, I'm going to need to apply some pressure on your head, okay?" I would have felt less rushed and that she cared enough to make me feel a little more comfortable. Just my personal opinion. Thank you for asking about my experience."

Again, he was very nice and respectful and if I had a retina issue, I would be glad to see him."
