Went for eye injection. Lost 1/2 vision. It was on 2nd visit and this guy gave an additional eye stick that made me lose my precious vision. I KNOW it was intentional because of the way he was conducting himself. He should receive twice the losts he inflicts on those that go to him for care. Wonder if his receptionist - wife knows of the HARMS he's done.

Dr. Schubert is a fantastic surgeon and a great doctor. He takes time to explain your procedure - provides you with hand drawn images, has a open and frank discussion and lets you make your decision based on the facts and risks. I would highly recommend Dr. Schubert for your medical needs.

Dr. Schubert is technically superb, generous in taking time to think about his patient's situation and communicate options and probably outcomes. My previous ophthalmologist, while technically competent, ran multiple offices like assembly lines. Dr. Schubert consciously moderates his pace, and in so doing, provides the best care I have ever experienced.

I was referred by another specialist to determine if the impact of double vision following surgery for bipolar macular hole was resulting from dysfunction of the retina.
