Had an appointment waited 2 hours for him to see me I complained to the nurse that the wait was outrageous. When he finally came in he told me I had something wrong with my cornea. I asked if there was an operation to fix it. He told me no nothing he knew if but if I wanted to check something experimental, I left petrified. I went to a cornea specialist . Did tests a number of tests. Nothing wrong with my cornea. Nothing. Maybe he didn’t like that I complained about the wait. Stay away from this guy. Scary to think that he is still in practice.

I am writing this review at 7:28am after dropping my off at 7:15am for surgery on 6/10/2020. I rarely leave reviews even after receiving poor service. However, the reception crew at this establishment is utterly horrible.
The first nurse had an attitude and a half on her. She was extremely rude and unhelpful. She refused to let us talk and all she barked was “YOU JUST NEED YOUR INSURANCE CARD”.
After being shouted at for a few minutes, by her, I was told to call the office so they can have my number on file.
So I called and was met by another gem. This one was worse than the first. While

Took my 78 yr old mom for cataract extraction for both eyes . The receptionist had a lil attitude so did I . The nurses & the drs that treated my mom are great she felt comfortable she was treated with high respect,once my mom went in for surgery she was treated gently, all the instructions were easy to follow . I would recommend this place to anyone who need the surgery for your eyes. It's a clean n covid savy safe place .

I have to say , my father and I were very nervous for his surgery. He is use to doing surgery in the hospitals. I had to do some research before hand and read the reviews before coming to the center also.
This is a nice facility to have surgery at. There is ample parking in a private area and it’s free. No parking meters . I was so happy because I live in the Bronx .
When you come in the facility , the ladies at the desk are very pleasant and welcoming. Signing in was a breeze . Didn’t have much to sign because it’s paperless. The wait time was long but they did inform us of that as we

My relative had surgery here a few weeks ago. I like that they had a nice free parking lot. It was wheel chair friendly. As you walk in , you greeted. They even helped my relative by helping opening the door. All the employees are very nice and informative . I had a few questions at the end and the questions were answered. The surgery itself didn’t take too long . And then we were able to leave right after . I want to say thank you to them all for a pleasant experience . A+

As said in previous reviews, the receptionist was less than helpful. You don’t get a clear answer as to how long it takes. They told us it would be 2 hours after you received drops until you are taken in for surgery. Meanwhile, we waited 1.5 hours for the drops and the surgery was immediately after.
You don’t see the dr after the surgery and although they say the nurse will chat with the family. Yet, thus far the answer everyone got is “instructions are on the paper”. How do they know if you have additional questions.

My husband had his second cataract surgery thus morning and the receptionist greeted us with a smile. She handled his registration with professionalism and he was told to wait for further instructions. About 5 minutes later he was taken in to recheck the measurements for his right eye that was being operated on today. Outside again for about five minutes and once again Beverly had him come back for the first steps and I appreciated being allowed to come back with him. When this initial process was done it did not take long for him to be recalled to get prepped for surgery. We were there for about

My husband had two surgeries at this facility. His regular ophthalmologist Dr. Paul Rutkowski attended. Dr. Dean Polistina performed the surgeries.
Drs. Rutkowski and Polistina, I hope that you are reading this. It's not good enough to be a great surgeon when your support staff is so dreadfully and abysmally deficient, rude and disorganized. The poor treatment we received from staff at this facility was consistently atrocious during both visits. I can forgive anyone, once, for having a bad day but given the terrible treatment during our second visit, the only reasonable assumption is that this
