Dr Mandese and his crew at Atlantic Eye Consultants were/are very good in their overall performance and client care. From the almost no wait appointments, courteous explanation of the procedures they were about to perform. Dr MShow moreandese’s experience shows in the smooth flow of our exams that were performed while answering questions we had prior to, during and after our eye exams. The crew also made sure if we had any questions or experienced any problems after we left to call. We are very satisfied with this office’s service and care to the clients.

My first experience was several years ago after an ER visit with a sever eye infection and the care following was great. He is my routine eye examination physician and I just broke my glasses and felt need for new script even thoShow moreugh last glasses are under 2 years old.They got me in for an appointment in a day. Just yesterday I was diagnosed with cataracts so he made sure I understood I would need another script after the surgery so I wont get my new lenses made till after the cataract surgery.
