Patient Reviews
Sep 05, 2024
This is above & beyond... I was on my daily bike ride, the Sunday of Labor Day weekend. My eye sight in my right eye suddenly started to fade rapidly. I basically could not see by the time I arrived home. I called my Eye Doctor, who met me at his office an hour after I called him. He did a full eye exam. He told me, I had a Retina tear with bleeding behind the eye, which is why I could not see. He immediately called Dr. Stuart Burgess, who met with me at The Florida Eye Institute 30 minutes later. Again, it was Sunday, about 2:30pm Labor Day Weekend!! He unlocked the door, did a full eye exam, AND... Laser Surgery!! Wow! Thank you Dr. Burgess! That people, is high level patient care! I did a followup 3 days later. All looked good, I am on the road to recovery! Exceptional experience!
