Dr. Jeffrey Lawrence Wexler, MD

I scheduled cataracts surgery with Dr. Wexler and ordered the multifocal lenses for both eyes. Following the surgeries, I learned to my shock and surprise, that as a result of an avoidable office mistake, he implanted the wrong lenses – monofocal rather than the multi-focal lenses I ordered! I then had “lens replacement” surgery in one eye. Now, 6 months later, the vision in that eye is still not sharp. While I can read larger texts, reading smaller (newspaper) print with drugstore readers is imperfect, since each eye now has a different lens. Since I never needed reading glasses in 70 years of life, this change in my day-to-day experience, due to an egregious mistake, has been disruptive and frustrating. In addition to this egregious mistake, I have also found Wexler’s manner to be dismissive and belittling. While he may a skilled surgeon, I will not return to Dr. Wexler’s office and cannot recommend his services. He’s lucky I have not sued.

After your exam, you are pointed to adjoining eyeglasses store to pick up your prescription. The clerk there will not hand you your prescription but hold it and ask why you aren't buying eyeglasses from them. Do you want to go though that kind of hassle? If so, Doc Wexler is the man for you!

The staff in his office was unfriendly and had an attitude. When I asked questions about the coat of my visit, they were reluctant to check my insurance. The front desk was also very unhappy when I asked questions about getting contacts. The optical department was also very rude when I asked about UV protection on my current frames that they inspected during my visit. With an attitude, they said, "Ma'am, I have no idea if you have UV protection." My visit for just an eye exam took an hour. I could not get contacts on the same day ether. I had to make a separate appointment for contacts. I was recommended by a friend to this doctor, but the overall experience was extremely unpleasant.

Dr. Wexler is a very good doctor. I had lasik nearly 20 years ago and still see 20/20 and 20/25. Over the years, Dr. Wexler has mellowed and is professional in all aspects of the appointmnent.

Been seeing this Doctor for seven years. He is always up-beat and optimistic. I would gladly recommend this competent, encouraging young doctor.

I would not recommend this doctor to anyone.Some ideas to get you started:-Write about overall experiences-Write about what you like or dislike about your physician-Write about whether you would recommend-Write as if you are talking to a peer who is asking your opinion

Very unprofessional, horrible bed side manner. Actually made my condition worse. Arrogant..
