Been seeing this group of doctors for years. My son had LASIK done here by Dr. Alan Salz and is thrilled with his vision.

Terrific team, though the wait is always 2 hours minimum. There is huge demand for top talent, and very few excellent Ophthalmologists. One concern, on two occassions, an assistant of the doctor got the directions for eye drops incorrect, both in writing and in the computer system. I now know to look her in the eye, repeat in front of the Dr. his instructions and make sure it is correct in both places. She's lovely but, it worries me that she may negatively impact patient recovery, especially as so many of Dr. Salz's patients are older/surgergical patients.

I had respect for him years ago when I had my cataract surgeries, but now this office has turned into a greedy and deceitful practice. My husband had both cataracts removed in March 2020, and they demanded 100% payment up front. Our family deductible is $2800, so we had to pay the remaining $2000 deductible. They waited 1 month to submit the insurance claims. In the meantime, the surgery center also wanted thousands, and we were forced to overpay on the deductible by $1800. Dr. Salz's rude office staff insisted they never got paid from our insurance company and would not refund the overpayment, but I confirmed our insurance did pay the claims. They do not return phone calls, and I had to go there in person. Still no refund. So I filed a complaint/dispute with my credit card company, provided proof, and waited the required 45 days. The $1800 was finally refunded in May. Note, if you opt to get the lens impacts for vision correction, the cost is an additional $3300, not covered by any insurance.

Doctor himself was knowledgeable, but the front staff was obnoxious, and the wait time is horrendous,

Waited for one hour in the waiting room with no explanation. Total visit 2 hours, 20 minutes. Dr. Salz himself was very polite, professional.

He is the rudest most obnoxious and arrogant person I have ever met. I will certainly not return.
