Doctor James Kelly was very nice. I came with an eye irritation. I was there for the first time 3 months before just for routine check. Was very satisfied that time. However the wait time was over the usual. I was there for ovShow moreer 2 hours just waiting. Even the girls at the desk couldn't understand why it was taking soo long. It had nothing to do with Dr. Kelly but with the girl that does a routine eye exam before you see the doctor. I explained I had all that 3 months ago, but she insisted and seemed to be having a bad day. I told her I needed a script for my eye not glasses and I was not going to continue the other routine tests she wanted to perform. I just know she had me waiting a long time til I told the girls in the front desk that perhaps I should come at another time. I was leaving. That's when the ball started to roll. I was called 10 min. After. Really, it's a nice office and basically they take most insurances. The doctors are great and the staff except that 1 girl just messed it up. That's why I only gave it 3 stars.
Dr. James Kelly was very good. This was my 2nd visit there in 3 months. I came with what I thought looked and felt like an eye infection but was told it is an allergy. The only thing distressing to me was the wait time. I got thShow moreere at 1:33pm. And left there 3 hours later!!! Not because of Dr. Kelly but the girl who checked my eye pressure and the letter chart. She kept on putting people that came after me , in front of me. Even the girls in the front desk questioned her actions. Julissa y Ansel were very apologetic and very sweet. But I don't ķnow what bee stung the girl who saw me first. She put me back in the waiting room for over 30 min. More before seeing Dr. Kelly. This is why I'm only giving it 3 stars this time instead of 5.
