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.

I scheduled the appointment because I thought I might be developing a secondary cataract in my left eye. The tech took me back early and conducted the most thorough eye exam I have ever had. When she checked my vision to see howShow more my prescription was doing, she had me corrected to the clearest vision I believe I have ever had. She was extremely proficient. Dr. Mandese examined my eyes and gave me his diagnosis. I have been using him since my cataract surgery and will continue to see him in the future.

Lee C H. • August 22, 2026

Great fast and friendly service. Doctor is fabulous and the techs are amazing

Leopoldo T. • August 21, 2026

I've been a patient of Dr. Mandese for 20 years or more now and he's simply the best eye doctor around. Patient, kind, spends as much time with you as necessary to explain any and all concerns, and genuinely cares. 10 stars not 5!

Brandon S H. • August 21, 2026

Excellent, Dr Mandese takes his time to review and listens to you,and explains everything, so you completely understand your situation and treatment that you need. I would highly recommend him and his office to my family and friends.

Bettie G. • August 20, 2026

Dr. Mike and Jess are always the best. But the front desk girl was super nasty, what kind of a person laughs at a patient who said I forgot my debit card, she seriously thought it was funny that now that I can not make a copay it was worth laughing at me about and then turning to the other women and laughing about it. This is not a surprise to me, that this happens just she is a terrible employee and a bad look for a good Doctor.?

Patrick W H. • August 20, 2026

Had two appointments with good results Would highly recommend

Christine Elle W. • August 19, 2026

Excellent physician. Very detailed in his explanations regarding my medical issue.

Judith Ann R. • August 19, 2026

Everything was great except the wait time. This was the first time this happened, but it was okay. Hopefully it not something that will continue to happen. Getting in touch with the office and having someone to call you back is unacceptable
