I don’t usually do these reviews but this office was very accommodating and worked hard to fit me in on a Friday when they were jam packed with appointments. And I really appreciated it because I very much needed it. Good people. Good doctor.

Worst eye doctor experience in a long time. They could not get prescription right and I had to get a new prescription and new glasses after the initial exam and the initial glasses. That the eye prescription was done by a nurse and not a doctor seems unusual in my experience and may have been a contributing factor. Nor did they manage to bill my vision insurance as one would expect when seeing an eye doctor. Instead they insist that this quite routine eye exam was instead a 'medical' eye exam that needs to go to my medical insurance where I face higher deductibles. Finally, they failed to alert me that they are out-of-network for my vision insurance and are only in network for my medical insurance - so regardless of how this ultimately will end up getting billed (vision vs medical plan), I'll likely be saddled with meaningfully higher costs than the $10 copay I was expecting given my vision insurance. In general I would expect any eye doctor to (1) check whether they are in-network for the vision insurance, not the medical insurance when asked whether they are an in-network provider, (2) bill routine eye exams to vision insurance, and (3) not mess up a simple prescription for glasses. They failed on all three items. Stay away.

If you have Wet AMD, you want Dr. Witkin!!! Eye injections are not pleasant, but this doctor is wonderful. I've been going there since 2004 and everyone in there is great. Would highly recommend them.
