This is a well run but busy office. The staff seem to be OK and respectful. That means that even though it’s really busy, I’ve never heard them be disrespectful to a patient. I’ve had both experiences, I’ve waited and I’ve gone right in. I think they’re wonderful, just my opinion.

I have been seeing Dr Gordon for over (10) years, always pleasant and professional and an excellent bed side manner. His assistants and technicians are very professional and courteous.
However, the front office has issues, my most recent visit on December 13th, 2021 @8:40am, I saw Dr Gordon and he prescribed a new prescription which he sent online to my local pharmacy. Now the drama begins:
December 13th. After 1pm. Called pharmacy to see if prescription is ready. Have not received prescription from Dr Gordon’s office, spoke to Jessica, (in front office) who said will leave a note to have prescription

The Dr said we'd be able to get cataract surgery done by January and didn't mention she was going on maternity leave. Scheduler knew I was being referred for cataract removal and still made my appt with someone who wasn't going to be available. Surgical scheduler was also office manager and was extremely rude.

The Greeting Staff were warm courteous. The office seating paced out to accommodate for COVID-19 and the air venting was working. The Testing Staff were polite and professional. Evelyn who schedules surgery was patient in listenig to my concerns. She reviewed my insurance with me, regarding what I've already paid into.and what's outstanding. Stacy, bless her heart, what a value to this practice. She tied up any other concerns I had before the up coming surgery. Excellent experience on Wednesday November 3rd.

I was not satisfied with the eye test. It was in my estimation not sufficient. Further in addition to the doctor's examination which I was charged for as part if the insurance cost, the office charged an additional $60.00 for producing a written prescription, plus a $4.99 service charge for I dont know what. I'm rather upset over the whole experience, and will have to go to another office for a more thorough examination, at which time I will be charged without any insurance reimbursement.

Quite annoyed to be charged $101 for a prescription once my appointment was over. No one (doctor or either of the 2 technicians ) mentioned during my exam that prescriptions cost extra. I got the distinct impression this is done routinely and purposefully so that patients are encouraged to get prescriptions whether they are really necessary or not. (Mine was not). Wish I had paid more attention to other reviews that point out this office charges for many extras before I made the appointment.

I had a great experience with Dr. Gordon and his staff. From the consultation to the post procedural appointment, everyone was kind, informative, and professional. They explained all I needed to know and answered all my questions. The procedure went smoothly and I could literally see the next day! I highly recommend the practice for your lasik needs.

Dr B. Is great. Very patient and answers all of your questions. Office staff is extremely competent. I feel I got a very thorough examination of my eyes and can be at ease about my eyesight until my next checkup in a year.

Dr Belliappa is terrific! She is very competent and easy to talk with. She just did both my eyes (separately) for cataract surgery and it went so smoothly. The whole practice has been fantastic.

Been a patient of Dr. Gordon for years and now it's time to get my cataracts taken care of. Between the time of my surgical consult and now (surgery tomorrow), the team at Ramapo Ophthamology has really great. Thank you for getting details explained, working out a schedule that works for me and doing all the prep work needed. And kudos to Violetta and Arlene for being totally awesome working with me.
