The billing practices of this place are so scummy. Went to an appointment and was told to follow up in 2 months. 2 weeks after the follow up, I get a letter saying I have a $146 bill that they are threatening to send to collections if I don't pay. The letterhead was pixelated and didn't list the specific services the bill was related to. I call to make sure and they tell me it is real and that I had been sent two notices and emails and the collections mail was the 3rd attempt. I 100% did not receive any notices, mail or email, indicating I had any balance left to pay, nor did anyone bring it to my attention during my follow up visit. Threatening to send a $146 bill to collections immediately on a 90 day mark (which isn't even correct because If it was due the day of my treatment then why was I not charged the day of) when nobody has actually made contact with me is absolutely ridiculous. This is on top of the fact that the difference between a routine eye exam that is covered, and a "medical exam" that is not covered is a matter of whether you discuss anything with the ophthalmologist or not. I did not receive any services or treatment other a routine eye exam and a recommendation to buy a product at CVS on my own and yet it was billed to my medical insurance and not vision.

Great overall experience. Called to make an appointment for my kid, was seen 2 days later, smooth check in process, doctor quickly and accurately diagnosed the issue and let us know treatment options. Unfortunately can't recall the doctor's name, was blonde woman with pleasant demeanor. Good job.

Impressive group of physicians, all well trained. Just had cataract surgery both eyes with excellent results. Dr. Shah and her staff are highly qualified, friendly and compassionate. My highest recommendation.

This review is for Dr. Amritha Sundaresan office ONLY. Dr. Khan has been wonderful and extremely helpful in diagnosing my glaucoma symptoms. However, due to her medical leave, I was referred to Dr. Amritha Sundaresan for follow-up — and the experience has been unacceptable. Dr. Sundaresan insisted on redoing the entire set of tests, but the first appointment ran almost an hour late, and at the second appointment I waited over 40 minutes and still had not been seen. A doctor’s time is valuable, but so is the patient’s. Running late once in a while is understandable, but being consistently late is a serious problem. If the practice is scheduling more patients than it can realistically see, then it needs to reduce the volume so patients are not forced to rearrange their entire day around excessive delays.

Took my father to see Dr. Khan and she was wonderful. She ran a series of tests, came up with some new insights that our previous ophthalmologist did not take notice of. Seems like she really came to play to offer a proper diagnosis and better solutions going forward. We highly recommend Dr. Khan. Very professional, appears to be a lovely person and my father really liked her and she treated him well and with kindness. So my thanks to her for all of her help.
