Dr. Martin Paul Kolsky, MD

Obviously highly qualified individual with a wealth of experience. Even with an extremely busy practice he spends as much time with the patient as is necessary without ever feeling that you are being rushed.

My appointment was at 8am and did not leave until after 11am. Not happy to wait that long. If I have an appointment at 8am should be seen at my appointment time. Ridiculous

Exemplary Care is a Standard w/Dr Kolsky ! My Parents & I have always received Exemplary Care!

Dr. Kolsky is the most professional and skilled ophthalmologist in the Washington area. I have been going to him for over 30 years and my family goes to him as well.

Cannot get any one to answer the phone

Great Doctor Knowledgeable. Patiently explains your condition. Answers all questions and concerns. Very nice.

I actually had to laugh, his waiting room is very crowded, but then he takes insurance which the other two in the DC area do not. When I was waiting, I was reading and had my head down. He came into the waiting room and said You, Hey You. I finally looked up and realized he was talking to me. I think his staff was very efficient; he called them on the intercom and barked orders as to which doctors he wanted contacted and he expected immediate results from them. I hope he pays them well.

I'll be looking for a new doctor. As soon as you arrive, hang your coat up, have a seat and BAM!, Dr. Kolsky calls you up and orders you to hold your head back and open your eyes. Next thing you know your eyes are being dilated. This doctor, in the 5 minute visit with him, does not listen to his patients. I asked about reading glasses and told him which strength works for me and without eye contact he asked my age and wrote the bifocal prescription for a much stronger strength. This would be my first time trying bifocals, but I think I'll wait until I find a new doctor. Maybe the chaos today was because the practice was seemingly overbooked. I heard a member of the staff saying a patient was asking when she would finish - she had been thete since 10 that morning! I appreciate professionalism, but this doctor is politely rude! I just left today so I'm still perturbed by my visit!

My case is complicated--a retinal hole appeared in my left eye due to the failure of surgery performed by Dr. Reginald Sanders--but Dr. Kolsky had NOTHING to say about the hole on my retina and no recommendations for repair. He stated nothing about the reason for the surgical failure or recommendations on how to repair the problem in my eye., In five subsequent years, the remaining vision in my left and right eyes has steadily disappeared and Dr. Kolsky still has nothing to say---and I mean nothing--about what the original problem with the retinal surgery was or how my eye could be fix. And, I mean NOTHING. I will show you his visit reports. They say NOTHING.

Quick, to the point, and accurate.
