I highly recommend Dr. Jacobs for cataract surgery. Just went in for my 2 yr check and my eyesight 20/20 plus I chose the type of surgery so I don’t even need reading glasses anymore either. I have a few minor floaters I notice when I drive, but I knew the risks and well worth a few occasional floaters. I had them prior to the surgery. I feel so confident having him as my doctor. He’s also is so kind and has many great reviews other than mine. Highly recommend him.
Unfortunately, I had a very unhelpful first visit today. I have been experiencing pain and dryness in my eyes for months. Recently it's been unbearable so I made an appointment to find out more. I walked out of the office today with no clear answers or explanation. I was not given a diagnosis and asked the doctor several times his clinical impression/what was causing my symptoms without a clear answer. The eye exam felt cursory -I was hoping to clarify if I had MGD from my visit, if my meibomiam glands were blocked or damaged. They were not looked ...
I debated whether to post this review, but I think others deserve to know in case they have a similar experience. On March 4, 2026, I had an appointment with Dr. Jonathan Volkin for a routine yearly eye exam. When he asked why I was there and I told him it was a standard annual exam, his demeanor shifted; As if he was either disappointed or uncertain how to proceed from that point forward. The exam that followed lasted approximately five minutes total. He began by reviewing the preliminary tests already completed by his assistant, then moved on to the ...
From the receptionist to the technicians to the doctor it was a pleasant experience. Bindu the receptionist Cody technician and Jackie and Deanna and Dr.Okafor completely thorough competent and professional. I look forward to my next appointment and will keep you informed. So far so good. Great job!
Dr. Lipscomb was very thorough and informative. I would give 5 stars except the scheduling for follow up to try the contacts has been difficult. There was only one appointment available each week. I was told there is usually a 6-month wait to see some doctors and that seems extreme. Dr. Lipscomb recommended I try the contacts for a month and then, if they don’t seem to be working, contact him to try a different type of lens. With the potential wait time of 6 months, I am not sure how that is going to work.
