I went in for a consultation for lens replacement surgery. The amount of time the technician and then the dr spent with me was amazing. The knowledge and kindness exhibited by both of them (as well as front desk lady) was nothing I experienced before. When I went to pay for the long consultation I was told it was free. So not only was I impressed with the entire experience. My shock at the complimentary visit without being rushed or pressure saled was a wonderful experience. Should I move ahead with lens replacement surgery they will be my go ...
Everyone at the office is friendly and helpful. I was very comfortable at my first appointment. Dr. Merkley answered all my questions and performed a thorough exam. The procedure was quick and I was very comfortable. After getting one eye done I was ready for the next week to get my other eye done. My vision is spot on and I can’t believe how bright and colorful everything is. I highly recommend Dr. Merkley and staff.
I have to say, this team at Merkley is on top of their game. Our appointment was amazing. The staff was super friendly yet in a professional tone. Two of us went in together and did not have to wait to be seen. We were able to do a few tests and hear what our options where and we were given pricing without a game of tug of war. It felt very open and honest. That is why I will definitely be scheduling at Merkley Eye Surgery.
Merkley Eye Surgery Center staff and Dr. Merkley have been amazing to work with. From explaining the various types of surgery they offer and pricing for each, to Dr. Merkley personally calling to go over results of my initial testing and spending time going over details for surgery I would qualify for and why I wouldn't qualify for others and answering my questions. Great shared decision making and well informed. Presurgical testing was great, and once again plenty of opportunity to ask questions, and to be well informed and prepared for results to be ...
I had Cateract surgery with Dr.Merkley. The surgery was efficient, fast and professional. He has a kind, comfortable and confident manner that left me relaxed.. His experience is obvious. His staff was also professional and calming. I started seeing clearer the next day and would recommend him.
