Dr. Jessica C Fleishman

After coming in for a prescription check-up, Doctor Fleishman diagnosed me with "Severe dry eye" and suggested "Silicone Punctual plugs", to which I was very openly not interested in and very much opposed to. I stated this several times. She went on to suggest "Dissolving Collagen plugs" to which after initial hesitation, I agreed. Solely on the fact that they were "Dissolving Collagen plugs". After having the "Dissolving collagen plugs" put in place I went home to barely slept through the night due to high discomfort and woke up to an extremely irritated right eye. I rushed back to her office the next business day, and after an hour of trying to get a hold of Dr. Fleishman she confessed to me that she'd actually gone ahead and inserted a silicone punctual plug on the right eye without my knowledge or consent. Turns out the reason my eye had been scraped every time I blinked and was so irritated on the left side of my right eye was due to the silicone punctual plug that was sticking… out of my tear duct. The apologies and assurance of her optometric skills poured in, while all I wanted was to have the silicone plug removed from my tear duct. Dr. Fleishman may be knowledgeable and fully capable in her field, but she completed disregarded my personal decision to not have silicone punctual plugs inserted into my tear ducts. She's complete finagled me in the most devious and dishonest way I've even experienced at the hands of a health care professional. Dr. Fleishman, You should be absolutely ashamed of yourself. You've completely violated ethics in ophthalmology, Shame on you.

Poor Experience - Doesn't take responsibility for vision loss she caused.

Never would recommend her to anyone. She will not take responsibility for her surgical errors.

Dr. Fleishman came recommended by a friend. I was super nervous about having anybody even get close to my eyes -so I had put off laser surgery for a long time. She put me at ease (okay I was still nervous, but not as much); she was easy to deal with, explained the surgery, answered all my questions, and didn't pressure me. I still put it off for a while, but I am so happy I finally got it done.
