Customer Reviews
I saw Dr Sweeney for a double vision issue. He checked my eyes found no issues but sent me for blood work and a brain scan by MRI. The Dr reviewed a few test results with me by phone but stated there were others he wanted to review. It’s now been two weeks since I was last contacted. I wonder if the doctor had double vision which makes it hard to drive if he would expect quicker response? In any case the doctor did call me yesterday and all checked out good. Finally back on the road to improved vision.
I feel Dr. Sweeney had been quite "cavalier" about my treatment for cataracts. He came highly recommended. I gave in to the "upsell" about having my astigmatism fixed in addition to the cataracts. "You won't need glasses except for reading". The near distance has been improved, but the far distance (for things like seeing signs when driving) still requires glasses. In addition, I now have this shimmering in my vision that comes and goes and Dr. Sweeney's attitude was that it was "just bad luck", and there is nothing to be done. His answer about the far vision was that I could "pass a drive license vision test". That only requires 20/30. I could do that with my glasses before the surgery. I wish I had waited!
I was looking forward to getting my vision corrected. Office manager called me today to inform me that the doctor has abruptly left the practice. All of his cases are canceled and wished me good luck on finding another doctor. She made no attempt to send me to another practice or refer me to another physician. Not even a sorry for the inconvenience or wasting your time. I will not be referring this practice to anyone I know
This Eye Surgery Center is awesome. Incredible staff no matter their job. Would like to thank all for their time while having cataract surgery in December 2022. Highly recommended!
