I had a frightening incident with my eye, so I called Delray Eye Associates. My doctor wasn't available but I was seen by another doctor who seemed extremely competent and thorough. I was also impressed by the response of the receptionist in handling my situation, in such a timely manner. Thank you so much.

Unfortunately, because of COVID, the waiting room was very crowded. The practice is extremely busyso you feel a bit processed. My doctor was going at a very fast speedbut he couldnt really help me with my specific issue. He was thorough and amicable.

Wow. I just called the office this morning after I requested an appointment online last week with no response from them. As I just relocated from Dallas and am need of an annual eye exam, the scheduler did confirm they are accepting new patients. Great....I disclosed that I do not have vision insurance and requested a "quote" for this exam. The base exam is $310 with other fees incurred for additional tests whatever those tests may be. I did ask what the additional tests would be and the cost associated......,she got very arrogant with my question .

Long wait time. Please update your recording that states a $ 95 charge will be collected at the end of your visit, when in fact I was charged $ 125. I question the amount and was told that you increased your prices, so please correct the prerecorded message. Also you cannot print out the required update form from your website. Thank you,

This is the most awesome group of employees I have ever met. I saw Dr Schaefer and he was so very thorough and extremely knowledgeable. One thing I was very disappointed with were several patients that were very very rude to the staff over issues that were to protect them from this virus. Again they were all Awesome kind and caring with me and most professional.

The checking in process was so friendly and extremely efficient. My annual eye exam, including follow up to cataract surgery with Dr Rosenfeld, was the best that I have ever experienced.
Dr. Rosenfelds reputation was why I trusted him with my cataract surgery. He did not disappoint. I am so grateful for his professional expertise. As an aside, he is one of the nicest and most caring physicians I have ever encountered in my 70 + years.
