Most doctors/clinics are there to help you with treatment but not with actual healing. At this clinic, the staff and especially Dr. Gerstein are there to restore and heal your vision. I thought I would never be able to live without glasses again, especially driving, but everything changed after the painless eye surgery.
I am overjoyed and happy. Thank you Dr. Gerstein, thank you to the staff. I recommend them to everyone. My family members have already made appointments. Another big THANK YOU!

I called to reschedule my appointment, and the woman who answered was very rude and hung up on me. This is a very unprofessional way to conduct business.

I've been wearing corrective eye wear since 3rd grade. I'm 66 now.
The whole process was easy, fast 10min and pain free. I feel I have been granted a new life. The staff is friendly , efficient, and puts you at ease. I'm going for my right eye next week. Looking forward to it. It took me the second day to really see what I've missed for decades. I'm an artist. So it has to be perfect.
I'm grateful.

The bills keep coming. I went in for LASIK. Couldn't do lasik because of a small cataract. I really wanted to be without glasses and I was told it'd only be $1,000 more. I was required to pay up front to Gerstein and Novamed $5906.40. I was given papers showing these amounts. I was told that the up front amount included my deductible and co-insurance and they had called my insurance company to verify the information. I later received additional bills from Gerstein, Novamed, and Apollo Medical Group of approximately 2,100. What I wasn't told in was that my insurance was out of network. I've called Gerstein several times to discuss the billing and no one returns calls. I was lied. They should know if they are in network or not and when they called the insurance they would have been told I was out of network. They did not convey that information to me. If they had I would have looked for an in network provider. I've paid $8000 for this out of my own pocket.

Got my lasik done on a Friday , and Saturday I was able to see perfectly fine. I could not say better things about this place and the doctor! The staff is all very friendly and knowledgeable about their work. The doctor explains wether you're a candidate for lasik or not and explains everything about the surgery and any questions you may have. They give you eye drops for the aftercare and are very attentive to how your eyes are after surgery. Definitely will be recommending this place to my friends and family!! 10/10 for sure!!

Bad eyeglasses, bad lenses, ... two pair purchased and the lenses degraded over months after the warranty. They remade one pair but not the other. Their excuse was that it was outside the warranty period. So I have one pair I cannot wear because the lenses look like there's spotty water stains in them. Their excuse: the office manager actually said this: "how do we know you didn't place them in an oven?"
There was no amount of explaining to them why I needed them to make sure my lenses were not spotty, and to remake them, given the first pair had the same problem, ...nope. They refused. "Over the warranty period" she quipped and quipped.
I see others have had experienced that have them state Gerstein is a criminal. I'd say ripping me off like this for about $600 does indeed make him and his staff criminals. Guess you call it white collar crime.

My husband and I were recommended for LASIK surgery by Bene and we are so glad we made the decision to do it! The entire staff and the doctor made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. Surgery was less than 10 minutes and the next day I was able to see almost as well as if I was wearing my prescription contacts! WE FEEL AMAZING! Thank you Gerstein Eye Insitute:)
