I had an appointment with Dr Riske from my optometrist referral with the earliest appointment a year away. Three days before this appointment I was told it was cancelled with the earliest appointment in 3 months. I requested and saw another MD inthe Wakefield office. He referred me to Dr Adam, a cataract specialist. This office offered to schedule me in their office as it wasnt as busy as the Blue Ridge office. They said the workup would take a couple of hours. I chose the Raleigh office as I live close to there. The office waiting area was full when I arrived. After a short wait, I was checked in. They informed me they were 20 minutes behind. After 30-40 minutes I went back for testing. After testing I had to wait for the doctor, for 20 min. All along the way, I was treated in an informed and professional manner. I found the staff to be competent and friendly. The doctor was great! She explained my situation and offered options. I appreciate her direct and informative manner which allowed me to make a decision. In general, I found this practice to be very well run. They are well staffed and everyone seemed to know what they were doing. Reading previous comments, I suspect all runs well until there is a hiccup...a late appointment or more complicated patient. My experience with Dr Adam was agood one. I would not hesitate to recommend her
I chose the right place for my cataract surgery!Everyone is professional and courteous, I was cared for and treated like a person not just a number.The doctor I saw the first time couldnt do my surgery till after the new year but my eyes had gotten so bad very fast that I couldnt wait. The scheduling manager for the previous Dr went above and beyond to find a different Dr I could see the next week and saved two dates for my surgeries the next month. I then saw Dr Patel who was able to get both my eyes fixed in December.The care I was given was outstanding!Dr Patel gave me the best Christmas gift ever.the ability to see better than I have ever seen in my whole life!!Make sure you get there a little early this office in very busy
