Report
I initially made my appointment with an ophthalmologist and was seen by an optometrist. This is very deceiving and when I informed the staff I was told that the ophthalmologist does not do routine eye examinations. This information was not provided when I made the initial appointment. If that was the case I would have chose a different doctor. However, the optometrist was very pleasant. But I thought I was seeing a MD.

This place is horrible. Horrible. I had a 2:30 appointment and did not get out until 5 pm. There was one patient in the waiting room before me. I am used to office time running very slowly, but this office runs on another level of inefficiency. Completely fed up with this inefficiency as well as their lack of flexibility with scheduling appointments. Go somewhere else if you can.

I was recommended to Dr. DelGiodice by a friend of mine, and I am happy I went. He has wonderful bedside manner, did not rush me like other doctors do and the rest of the staff are very friendly. I recommend them to all my family and friends.
