I live in Montrose. It is worth it to find a driver to help me make the BASALT turn around once a month. Interacting with an ophthalmologist who knows precisely what he is doing, can convey it to me and answer any questions I mShow moreay have with respect, interest and sometimes even humor, is a godsend.i hav I found none of those qualities in Montrose or Grand Junction.. And of the three Denver doctors who satellite to BASALT in monthly rotation, Dr. CHOD is the fastest shooter in the West.
It was a good experience seeing Dr Chod I understood what we talked about. He gave me options that I could think about concerning my diagnosis, which was very helpful. I trust his expertise in the field that he practices so I am gShow moreoing to go ahead and and start the treatment that he suggested at the beginning of the examination. Bob Zucca

Great job
Dr Chod is extremely knowledgeable and compassionate. He made me feel comfortable and confident that the procedure would help my Macular Degeneration and IT DID!!! Thank you so much, Dr. Chod.
Felt like I was part of an assembly line everyone in a hurry
Not bad at all. I'm attended to in a timely fashion.
I didn’t have to wait very long for my appointment. I was thankful that my vision was still good.
Very good
Very efficient in the front office area and the appointment with DR Chod went well Very informative and helpful. (Only thing I don't like is dilated eyes) but that's a personal icky for me nothing to do with anything negative about the practice. Thank you to the staff who were all great
Dr. Chod was very thorough in reviewing my symptoms and the images his team made. He also did his own detailed examination of my eyes and recommended further medical tests to rule out possible health risks. He was efficient with my time without making things feel rushed.
Dr. Chow is an excellent doctor. The staff is very caring and explain situations so reduces worry.
I receive shots in both eyes for Macular Degeneration (wet and dry). The shots delivered by Dr. Chod are almost always painless. They do work and seem to be slowing the process of losing sight in both eyes.
He is so good that I get the shot in the eye, but barely feel it. highly recommended by me. Colonel Curtis D. Dale, PhD, USAF (Ret)

Appointment takes a couple hours. See the doctor for about three minutes.
All went well . Time spent in the waiting room was good . Questions were answered by staff . By the way I do have a eye doctor in Dillon . Her name is Dr Ward through the V A once a year . If that could be updated in my file . Thanks Jim Scalise
This was an exceptionally disturbing experience. I had the eye exams and was prepped for injections. Dr. Chod came in and said abruptly that he couldn’t give me the injections because my insurance was out of network. I said I’d pay out of pocket then, and he replied in an angry manner, “You don’t have 20,000 dollars.” I asked how much an injection was, and he said it was $3,000 for just the medication, and there would be a series. He also said something about protecting his practice. Overall, he was rude, condescending, and angry-acting. I paid for my useless eye exams and left. I have since found another practice of retina specialists that contacted my out-of-network insurance, verified that they will indeed cover treatment, and established the payment arrangements (a simple co-pay). I have started treatment, and find them to be courteous, competent, and supportive. I would never recommend Dr. Chod, not Retina Specialists of Colorado.
