Patient Reviews
Jun 16, 2024
I've used Dr. Prum for 4 years to treat my glaucoma, including 4 surgeries and 2 more for cataracts. He is extremely hard working and diligent (and UVA keeps him overbooked). He may seem to be running constantly, but you only have to ask him a question, and he stops full on to answer you. I've had him call me on Saturday, and respond after hours with prescription OKs. I was referred to him originally by my optometrist, Dr. Wasiuta in Culpeper. He told me not to expect him to be my pal, but if his sister ever needed an ophthalmologist, he's the one. During eye surgeries, the patient is awake. So I know first hand what Dr. Prum is like under the gun. And I can't say how much I trust him for his authenticity, talent, and pure skill. He'll always tell you if he doesn't know something, which not all medical professionals will do. He can be frustrated by administrative failures, e.g. the computer. I can relate! But this is never about the patient.
