  Dr. ___ failed me in many ways. From my very first appointment with him, I was in remission and wanting to establish care with an opthamologist in Ohio (Early 2023), to my recent visits since I had a Uveitis flareup, he has failed me. When I first established care with Dr. ____ , I was in remission and had no active inflammation, and I felt as if he did not believe I had Uveitis. He googled my old Opthamologist, told me I’m fine, and after a few follow-up appointments of being told I’m fine (verbatim) I stopped seeing him until I had a flareup in June 2025. I had an emergency visit with Dr. Buzzacco (way better bedside manner and explanation, at the practice in Dublin) to confirm it was a flareup, and put on a pred taper to hit the nail on it’s head. Only a week later, when I got to visit Dr. ____, he told me I was fine and didn’t see any inflammation in my eyes. He ended up sending me to another location to get pictures of the backs of my eyes to confirm all of the inflammation that was hiding, and gave me two steroid shots to help the initial inflammation, with some daily meds he chose. Every appointment since then I go through the process of bloodwork, waiting HOURS in his office, spending MAX 5 minutes with Dr. ____, and being told ‘You’ll be fine, Monica. See you in 4-6 weeks.’ What for? What about my bloodwork? What about my inflammed tattoo I reached out about? Why am I on immunosuppressant medication while I go into preschools and senior living facilities for work? I got actively disregarded in the portal to talk to Dr. ____ and disregarded in his office too. There was absolutely no concern for me in his care. Finally in Dec 2025 I decided to get a second opinion, and without asking, all of those above concerns of mine were mentioned and tackled in my first appointment. I could ask questions and ask about all of the big medical terms i’ve heard over the years. TLDR: Dr. ______ is good for an initial bandaid by getting steroid shots, but if you want to find out your root cause of the disease you have, seek help elsewhere. Dr. ______ shares no concern and the most common phrase out of his mouth is ‘you’ll be fine.’ Edited to omit his name, but you can find this review on his main Dr. review page. Thanks for reading.

  Excellent doctors!! Many of the reviews complain about the wait but they do take in emergency cases as well as regular appointments so unfortunately sometimes you have to wait. I am basing my review on the most important thing and that is the care I have received every time I have had to go in which in excellent. I have seen Parikh and Patel who have both been caring, professional and incredibly detailed w/ their expertise.

  Sure the waits are long but maybe it's because there are a LOT of people with major issues and only a handful of facilities and surgeons that can fix your problem. I had something rare and unique and I'm glad they were able to help. If you want to complain about waits and the medical industrial complex vote better. Make medical school more affordable and available to the masses is the only way to solve one of the many healthcare issues with have in America.

  I gave 2 stars because the staff is very courteous. My appointment was at 130 pm, I finally saw the doctor at 3 pm and was done by 3:03 pm. He dictates his notes to a scribe during those 3 minutes. So I am perplexed how one runs 1.5 hour behind when you spend less than 5 min per patient and you don’t even have to document? The previous time I was there for two hours , so if you’re coming to this office plan wisely, bring a picnic basket cause it takes a while at this office.

  They are slow to the degree of it being malicious. They know and make no effort to change. That's a plan not a mistake. If you have other options take it. If you don't have other options find one.
