Cataract surgery both eyes. 100% pleased with results! Dr. Katz and associates make his patient totally relaxed and informed pre, post and follow-up. Sorry I’ve only got two eyes or I’d go to him again. ??
I was a patient of Dr. James Katz back in 2015. I have been near-sighted for decades but never had bifocals. In my mid-40's, my eyes were changing and I was not seeing things (even close-up reading) as well as I used to. Rather than visiting my traditional optometrist, I sought a good ophthalomologist (Dr. Katz was recommended by my regular physician). While I dreaded thought of bifocals, the progressive type & his prescription turned out great & I had no problem adjusting. Thank you!
He needs to be more sensitive to patient concerns about problems. And the wait times are horrendous.
My time with Dr Katz was unpleasant and hurried. I waited more than 45 minutes after my eyes were dialated to see the doctor because he was busy talking with a salesman for supplies. He then came in checked the write of his tech but did not check my eyes to see the results that I need cataract surgery. He was rude/abrupt to my sister who asked one question. He replied that he would go over that info on my next visit. I will not be back to this practice.
At 83, I was told that I needed cataract removal, and my ophthalmologist recommended Dr. James Katz at the Midwest Center for Sight. My only caveat is the generally long wait times. The staff is friendly and competent, and their equipment is state-of-the-art. Dr. James Katz is very personable and informative, and an incredibly gifted surgeon. I had not realized I was seeing the world through a sepia haze. Now my vision is as clear, color correct, and bright as when I was a teen-ager.
