Worst Doctor Ever! Dr. Wesley is by far the worst doctor I?ve ever come across. From the moment he walked in the exam room, he was arrogant, dismissive, rude and was not able to answer any of my questions. At the end of the visit, he said I was fine, no issues, tests were normal and sent me home. Then, I found out from his notes ONLY that I had to do follow up and monitor a condition that HE never mentioned I had. How can he do that? Then, I called his office several times, emailed him and he did NOT have the decency to respond back to via email or call me back. I do not recommend this doctor!!

He deals with me as a person. He is compassionate, efficient and at no time will you think he is anything less than top in his field. Most of all, he gives me hope in an almost hopeless situation with my eyesight.

I have been a patient of Dr. Wesley since 2005 when I was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis; in my case the disease attacked the tissue of my eyes eating away at my vision. From the very first and since, Dr. Wesley took the time and patience to be certain I understood every step we had to take together to deal with this illness. Over time I have come to view Dr. Wesley not only as my doctor, but as a friend to whom I can speak freely and will be listened to with respect and compassion.
