Doctor too much in a hurry – it was like I was a nuisance. If front me he said to his assistant ‘not another new patient!’

Dr Coney performed retina surgery on me. He was very patient and comforting with me and other patients he was caring for. A very nice man.

Dr. Coney diagnosed me with macular degeneration several years ago and I was terrified at the thought of losing my eyesight. He gave me the best possible treatment and with his professional approach and TLC, his efficient standard of service put my mind at rest. Because of his great care, I am completely cured and can see clearly. I'm truly grateful and with sincere appreciation I thank Dr. Coney and his courteous staff for giving me my eyesight back.

Dr Coney performed surgery on my left eye that was considered legally blind. My eye site is improving every visit. He explained the surgery procedure and answered all my questions. I highly recommend Dr. Coney .

Hello,
My name is Maryann Schultz, and I have been a patient of Dr. Joseph M. Coney, MD since 2011.
He was the first one to correctly diagnose my eye problem. I had been to another Retina doctor,
and all he would tell me was that I had Floaters. If I had not gone to Dr. Coney, I would have lost my
eyesight in my Right eye.
All of the Staff at Retina Associates, take such good care of you. They treat you like family, and give you
any help needed while you are at the office. I Highly Recommend.

I've been seeing Dr. Coney for several years, first with macular degeneration of my left eye. His treatments corrected the problem. Then, I had a problem with my right eye and after a series of visits and injections, my macular problem has improved and stabilized. Dr. Coney has restored my vision as of now and I would recommend him to anyone. He's a very caring, competent physician.
