Eye M.D. of Niceville

I called their office to see if they perhaps took Medicaid to get rid of these cataracts that have taken my vision hostage in just the last couple of weeks. Unfortunately, they don't take my insurance but I received a text the next day while they was closed from a lady at the front office named Sammi. She said she had called around to try n find me another doctor who could help me but had no luck. Let me tell you, this is the kind of place I would go to a million times over for the care n compassion they showed to me. More places should be like this!

We have been seeing Dr. Ruttig for a couple years. Recently, cataract surgery in their new surgery center. Everything was perfect. The facility is outstanding. The people from receptionist to surgical nurses were friendly, helpful, professional, and supportive. Dr. Ruttig is exceptionally skilled and explains everything clearly. A great experience. The place to go for all ophthalmology needs.

Worst experience ever. This doctor came highly recommended from a friend of mine. I went in for an eyelid consultation, which I was told was free of charge. I had a comprehensive eye exam for vision, and was told I would have to come back for the eyelid test. I verified that that would be complementary as well and they said yes there is no charge. Then I got two huge bills from my insurance company. Neither were complementary. Then I was told that the insurance company approved the eye surgery, and got a letter from my insurance company, saying that it was denied due to inconclusive test being reported from the doctors office. I called and asked to speak with the office manager about the bills from the insurance company, and about having been told that the surgery was approved and knowing that it had been denied, it took about a week for the office manager to return my call after several others had called asking if they could help because the manager is busy. This entire experience was a disaster, and evidently this happens often as conveyed by the office manager.

The best experience with an organized,friendly, professional,and highly efficient staff and Doctor. I am very impressed with the high end professionals and nurses who were very nurturing before,during, and after procedure.

First time at Dr Ruttigs office and 10 out of 10. Great doctor, great staff. Super friendly and knowledgeable and was in and out. I aways appreciate a doctors office that respects your time as well, as there's. If you're looking for an eye doctor check them out !

DO NOT GO HERE if you have TRICARE. They will bill it as a medical bill instead of an annual checkup. I have to pay $163 even though Tricare would cover annual eye doctor every year. I asked the receptionist if they do an annual checkup and accept TRICARE, and she said YES. They ripped me off, now they say they're surgical and I should have gone to an optometrist. Usually, other places are honest and tell you they won't treat you because they're surgical and you need a referral to those places, and that they don't do an annual check. Additionally, my appointment was an hour after I arrived, and the assistant didn't give me the drops properly and didn't give my pupils time to dilate, making the exam uncomfortable.

My first encounter with Dr Ruttig was treatment for milkweed sap in my eye. Excellent care. I recently had cataract surgery and extremely pleased with the results. He is an excellent Dr. His office runs so smoothly. Everyone there is so professional, friendly, polite and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this physician and his staff.

Eye exam after cataract surgery today and was very impressed with the staff's professionalism and on time appointments. Highly recommended this practice for your eye needs. Definitely a 5* review
