I wish I could write a positive review about my experience, but other than the female secretary I had a less than ideal visit at this office. There was poor management of staff as Dr. Mehta had no idea where her tech was at and disregarded me multiple times to go see where she was. Dr. Mehta was a very poor listener and her actions were all over the place in which I wondered if she has an attention disorder or was just blatantly ignoring me whenever I talked to her. She was informative, but her poor bedside manners overshadowed any positives of this experience.

I booked eye exam appointment. However that means glasses exam. I was expecting to see doctor for checking my eye health, not for glasses. Totally wrong appointment.
