“The appointment was fine. But Zocdoc does not sync with Dr. Fell's internal site, so you're better off calling.”
Brian M.November 15, 2019
“Dr. Fell was very thorough in both examining my 94 yr. old mom's eyes, and explaining her condition.....my mother has total confidence in her, and was glad that we chose to see her.......because of this, I have scheduled an appt. with Dr. Fell for myself, and realize from my mom's visit that people should go for at least an annual check up with an ophthalmologist.........aging, genetics, obesity, smoking, diet, sunlight, etc. can all affect your eyesight, and nothing is more precious to us than that!

I enjoyed my appointment with this doctor very much. The office was clean and the staff was very nice. The doctor is very knowledgable and friendly too. Would recommend.
November 9, 2015Leah M.Verified patient
Everyone is very professional. Dr Fell is an outstanding physician. It took approximately 2 hrs from time of arrival to departure which is common in most physician offices. The only negative comment I have is the waiting area, after your eyes are dilated, is much too small for the number of people being seen.

They are very professional and very nice. For first timer you have to wait a little longer, but they do a lot of test, until you see the doctor.....Dr Fell was very sharming, I wil keep going to see her again for know on.....

Dr. Fell was very thorough during my eye exam and in her explanation of what was happening with my eyes. Great staff as well.
More than 1 year agoJaime L.Verified patient
The wait time was a bit long, but it was worth it. She was very professional and talked to me in a way where I definitely understood what was going on with my eyes.
April 22, 2015Zeeshan M.Verified patient
We arrived more than an hour late, but were told because of the freezing temperature, Dr. Fell did not turn us away. I couldn't believe it. We were seen right away.
The care was excellent.

The visit was ok because they did see me and able to give a diagnosis. The wait time to see Dr Millie was ridiculously way too long especially since she did not spend that much time with me in the first place.
September 29, 2014Rhaudh Brooke B.Verified patient
Absolute professional. Diagnosed what two other doctors missed. Wonderful bedside manner. Wonderful staff. For a doctor visit, a most satisfactory experience. I will remain with Dr. Fell. I liked zoc doc very much, too.
More than 1 year agoMary P.Verified patient
I received a very thorough eye exam. The receptionists, optometry tech, and doctors were all polite, efficient, and very helpful. This will definitely be my ongoing ophthalmologist! Highly recommend.
June 23, 2014Taneika H.Verified patient
Great doctor affiliated with Great Hospitals: (NYU & NY Ear & Eye Infirmary). They have friendly s staff that listened to my son's many many stories and questions. The wait when we got there was just enough time to fill out the new patient forms. My sons needs were addressed AND he liked them. Sorry I took so long to leave a review. I left a longer one on yelp.
July 10, 2014Solomon S.Verified patient
Dr. Fell was the last person I saw after working with 3 other people in the office to look at various parts of my eyes when I went in for a general check-up. But, after getting my eyes dilated, I waited for 45 minutes. This doesn't include the original waiting I did in the office prior to my appointment. Everyone was kind. Dr. Fell apologized for the long wait, saying the snow had caused a lot of backed-up patients. But she also asked me to "leave a good review on ZocDoc." While she was really nice, and all of her staff I interacted with was as well, the wait time and the slight pushiness turned me off a little.

Completed alI the forms online before visit and was seen within 5 minutes of signing in. Was impressed by the office appearance, use of technology in diagnosis and overall expertise of the staff.
March 1, 2014James W.Verified patient
It was great!
January 28, 2014Veronica F.Verified patient
I went to the office on a busy day with a lot of elderly people.So the waiting time for the doctor to check my eyes was at least an hour. Dr. Fell was very polite, professionally courteous and friendly.Her face seemed warm in the photograph,I will make an appointment on a different day for sure next time. I have found my permanent ophthalmologist in Brooklyn.
April 25, 2014Jodi-ann M.Verified patient
