Dr. Craig Adam Skolnick, MD

After waiting 45 minutes to see the doctor he rushed through my appointment and didn’t give me enough time or information. He had one foot out the door when I called him back to ask a few questions. He appeared to be in a hurry and was very abrupt. Dr. skolnick is arrogant and unprofessional. I will not be going back.

After sitting in the waiting room for approximately forty (40) minutes, I decided to ask how much longer it would take to be seen by the doctor. There were EIGHT (8) other people waiting for one (1) doctor. The front receptionist informed me that there were four (4) people before me. It would take at least another hour before I would be called. I then spoke with the office manager who was exceptionally rude and condescending. She informed me that the doctor is a specialist, as if that justifies the long wait. She also stated that the doctor takes emergencies and “walk-ins.” Walk-ins take priority over appointments made weeks in advance?!? I can understand an occasional emergency, but not being sixth in line when my appointment was booked weeks prior. I am a former patient of Dr. Skolnick’s and was treated by him approximately three (3) years ago. This is definitely my last visit to Dr. Skolnick. How disrespectful to expect a patient to arrive on time and then wait almost two… hours to be seen. Such arrogance!

Very efficient office visit and overall practice for eye specialist

Dr. Skolnick diagnosed my vision problem. My eyes and optic nerve we’re all in good shape. But the loss of my peripheral vision was the issue. He suggested I go see a Neurologist because he said it could be a problem with my visual cortex if my brain. He was right on the money. Sad to say a mass was found in that area. Currently, being treated for a glioblastoma. I have hope to live many years. Being treated at New York Presbyterian Cornell hospital in Manhattan. Thank you Dr. Skolnick. I will be in for a follow up visit soon.

I was there for having the prescription for my glasses the did wrong 3 times, and also the make me pay for the visit.

What a supportive special Doctor..would recommend to everyone

Dr. Skolnick is everything anyone could want in a DR. He is smart, caring, skilled and has a fabulous office staff who is just as knowledgeable , especially his head tech, Veronica!! Unfortunately, he had to deliver the news to me that I had 2 Macular holes, one in each Retina and was already legally blind in one eye! I had seen him only six months prior and all was fine! But he made sure I was seen by a skilled Retina surgeon within a few days and had surgery ASAP. After that, the Retina surgery caused Cataracts to form and he removed those. When Dr. Skolnick does surgery he always calls u himself that night to make sure u are OK. He is the best in EVERY way, so be patient if u have to wait during season, because when u get in that room he will be all yours and will never rush you! He is the besT, which is why I have my sight back!!
