All reviews seem positive

Very pleased with the results of my Lasik 3/4/2015

I had Lasik about 4 years ago and am very pleased with the outcome. My vision is great and I had no complications. more

I am extremely happy with the results from my refractive surgery. 12/17/2014

Dr. Sondheimer spent a lot of time with me, discussing my options, determining the type of lens that would be best for my life style and answering my questions. Just a few hours after the surgery, he followed up with a phone call to my home to see how I was doing and if I was incurring any problems. I really appreciated his personal concern. He also reiterated to me that he was just a phone call away if I needed to speak with him. This surgery was a most positive experience. more

Excellent 11/24/2014

Doctor Sondheimer is a very reliable doctor, not only does he perform finely doing his job, he really cares about his patients. I felt secured with him even though an eye surgery is considered a risk. Im so happy and blessed that I came to his office. more

Couldn't be happier 10/23/2014

I went to Dr. Sondheimer for laser eye surgery. I had been putting it off because I had a very strong prescription and I was a bit nervous about the procedure. Dr. Sondheimer put me right at ease, answering all my questions and taking the time to make sure I was making the right choice. The surgery was a total success, I no longer need glasses for distance or for reading, I'm really glad I went through with it. The Doctor and his staff are all very friendly and professional. I would highly recommend them to anyone. more

He is an excellent eye specialist. 9/29/2014

Dr Sondheimer is an excellent eye specialist. He examined my eyes most satisfactorily and also performed cataract surgery to my entire satisfaction. He gives enough time to patients and answers all the questions. more

Good experience overall 8/20/2014

excellent 7/16/2014

Had cataract surgery and thrilled with the results. Dr Sondheimer is committed to delivering the best care to his patients. more

My experience with Dr. Sondheimer was excellent. 6/6/2014

My experience with Dr. Sondheimer was excellent in all respects. He spent a lot of office time with me, evaluating my vision, talking to me about my vision and explaining my options. It is obvious that he likes what he does and it is obvious that he cares about his patients. He is the best! more

A truly life changing experience! 2/28/2014

Dr. Sondheimer is professional and personable. I was very nearsighted, with astigmatism and cataract that made driving at night nearly impossible. He did the exams thoroughly, explained the options, and gave me a ‘field trip’ to feel the potential result of the recommended option. The surgeries went well and now I see better than I ever did! Also, with monovision, I can see far and close without glasses. This is truly a life changing experience. His office staff is very helpful and friendly as well. more

Excellent experience 7/24/2013

I would highly recommend Dr Sondheimer to anyone considering any kind of eye procedure. His staff is extremely helpful. My initial consultation was very thorough and he clearly and patiently explained all the options available to me. The LASIK surgery was quick and painless. The post-op care is excellent. He is always available if you have any questions or concerns. I once sent him a text on a Saturday morning and he called me right away. Dr Sondheimer is committed to increasing your quality of life by providing the best care possible and by improving your vision. If you make an appointment you will not be disappointed. more

He's a marvelous doctor. 3/25/2013

This was my first time going to Dr. Sondheimer. I had cataract surgery done on one eye. Everything went absolutely flawlessly. He can't do any better than flawless. more

Dr. Sondheimer is great. He's a nice guy and a fine doctor. 3/22/2013

Dr. Sondheimer made me very comfortable. He was very positive in what my surgery was going to be. I had my doubts at times, but he was very good at reassuring me and making me feel comfortable. I am very happy with the results. I may or may not have to go back for tweaking, I'm still healing so I'm not sure yet. My eyes are working really well together though. more

Professional and friendly. 3/21/2013

This was my first experience with Dr. Stuart Sondheimer. I researched him online, and he had good reviews. I really liked his manner as a physician. Also, the office was clean and the staff were nice. Dr. Sondheimer answered all of my questions regarding Lasik surgery. I felt comfortable with our consultation and the actual surgery itself. I would definitely recommend him to anyone. more

Unbelievable! 9/5/2012

I can see better/clearer than with my glasses. I wish I had the procedure (PRK) done long ago. more

I have a lot of confidence in him 5/22/2012

I think Dr. Stuart Sondheimer is very attentive. He's very careful about his patients and I have a lot of confidence in him. I started using him just prior to my cataract surgery. Dr. Stuart Sondheimer is an excellent doctor and I recommend him highly! Gladys Keats more

Great 4/14/2012

My cataracts were two years old. My regular eye doctor did not have equipment to work with very opaque lenses. Dr. Sondheimer did. All staff were very accurate, friendly and accommodating. I now see better than I have in a long time. Feel good if you see him. more

Very intensive exam. Answer all my questions. Very intelligent doctor 4/4/2012

I can see better than I ever did wearing glasses and contacts for 25+ years. No pain, next day back to work. I kept saying it like a whole new world. more

Dr. Sondheimer and his is professional staff are remarkable 4/3/2012

I took an eye exam last year, and the optometrist told me that because my vision was extremely impaired, he could not prescribe me any glasses. He referred me to a specialist. I was diagnosed with cataracts, and I was told my lenses would need to be crushed and replaced. I had never been in a hospital (except to have my children), so I was in shock. I kept putting off thinking about surgery on my eyes. It was the most frightening experience I could imagine. I tried all kinds of drops and remedies that might reverse the effects of cataracts. Nothing worked and the cataracts accelerated until I could not drive or read anything. Finally, I heard Dr. Sondheimers video on the Internet. I knew nothing about cataracts, but he offered a step-by-step detailed explanation of exactly what they were. During my consultation with him, he explained that because I had astigmatism, he would sculpture the new lens to fit my eyes individual specifications. I cant express how grateful I am for his patience in answering all my questions over and over until I truly understood. I didnt feel like just another patient. After the consultation, I felt totally confident that I was in great hands. His one-on-one approach supersedes his expertise. Because I didnt have insurance, he made my payments affordable with a payment plan that fit my budget. During the procedure, I was completely awake. Dr. Sondheimer and his is professional staff were courteous, and their bedside manner was impeccable, remarkable, and wonderful. Throughout the surgery, all I saw was beautiful lights. He assured me that the procedure would take no longer than 15 to 20 minutes, and he was right on the button. I was shocked at how quickly the procedure took. It was amazing how perfect my eyesight was after the surgery. It was totally painless with no discomfort. No patches or stitches were necessary. Any fears I had regarding the surgery were totally unwarranted. After knowing the outcome of the surgery of my right eye under his care, I looked forward with absolute anticipation to have my left eye worked on. I never dreamed Id be excited to have invasive surgery. If I had known what I know now about how wonderful the outcome of the surgery is, I would have gotten the procedure done months ago. I now have 20/20 vision. Life without glasses or contacts is more amazing than I imagined. I was able to drive my car within two days. I sincerely recommend Dr. Sondhimer. His reputation does him justice. I am able to fully function, and I have a renewed confidence that I had lost beforehand. I have only praise for such a dedicated, experienced, and remarkable doctor. more

Very good 4/3/2012

Dr. Sondheimer treated me for several occurrences of iritis. I now have it under control. A lens replacement in one eye has restored full unobstructed vision. Dr. Sonheimer performed the surgery. My recovery was quick and complete. more

Excellent. 2/8/2012

Reviewed many doctors before selecting Dr. Sondheimer. He performed cataract surgery in both eyes. I'm so happy I selected him! more
