Dr. Jon Michael Adleberg, MD

I was referred to Dr. Adleberg with the Hampton Roads Retina Center. I had something seriously wrong with my vision, I didn’t know what it was, my eye doctor and I just knew it wasn’t right. Same day, when I saw Dr. Adleberg he immediately knew it was a partial retina detachment. This is a very serious issue, time sensitive, and honestly pretty darn scary. He not only kept me calm and talked me through all of the next steps, he performed the surgery on me the next day. After following all of his recovery procedures and doing regular check ups, I am now being released from regular check ups as of today. I highly recommend Dr. Adleberg to anyone who has any retina issues and I am glad to have him in my corner!

I have been under the care of Dr. Adleberg for well over a year now. I transferred to him after being under the care of another Ophthalmologist for over 9 years. The main reason I left the previous doctor was the fact that I began to question his methods. The previous doctor would give me shots – even when I did not need them (he even had a name for it – a “maintenance shot”), and he had me taking multiple types of medications (as part of an experiment), but continued to give shots too. Upon transferring to Dr. Adleberg, he took a lot of time to go through my extensive record (3 inches think after 9+ years of scans and appointments), and he took me back to my baseline. I stopped taking all medications the previous doctor gave me, and I’ve been “shot free” for the last year. Some people may criticize or complain about long waits in the waiting room, etc, but here’s a question to ask yourself: Would you rather have something done well and slow or fast and sloppy? Dr. Adleberg takes… his time with his patients to ensure the highest quality of service is being provided. I cannot say this about my previous doctor – felt more like an assembly line: get people in, give them a shot, make next appointment, check them out, repeat.
