Eye Specialists of Rockford

Today I went for the second time and they did accept my Medicare PPO from Humana I went 2 years ago had the same insurance no problem. Tracy the optometrist/ ophthalmologist assistant was very very awesome- Dr Palmer very awesome- the staff seemed so much more friendly than 2 years ago. The reception very kind as well. GREAT EXPERIENCE

My recent visit was professional and pleasant from beginning to end. The eye exam (refraction and dilation) was thorough and well explained. Dr Gupta was extremely knowledgeable and very willing to give me his time and answer my questions. They were willing to use my existing frames (not purchased there) and update the prescription lenses. There were no surprise charges and I left my appointment happy with the experience at this office.

Eye Specialists of Rockford has looked after my eye care for almost thirty years. This week Dr. Masud Malik did cataract surgery on one of my eyes. I am very pleased with the results and very grateful to Dr. Malik for doing such a good job. I highly recommend Dr. Malik and all his excellent staff.

Dr. Malik and his technicians did a great job. My vision improved significantly. They did my right eye in December of 2022 and my vision was greatly improved. I could not believe that my vision would get that much better. In January 2023 Dr. Malik did my left eye. My vision got even better! The laser procedure only took three or four minutes per eye. At 72 years old I thought I was destined to have poor vision. Not true! Dr. Malik gave me a life changing event. Thank you Dr. Malik and the staff at Eye Specialists of Rockford.

Wonderful kind professional service. From walking in being greeted with a smile a happy welcoming face, to the great service. I had purchased two other pair of glasses this year from another place. My experience with the other place was subpar. I determined to have a correct and proper vision exam and a good working and fitted pair of glasses. Made my new appointment with this facility Malik Eye Specialist of Rockford. Dr Anita Palmer talked with me about my vision concerns no rush rush. She asked questions no one had ever asked before. (Side Note,, I've worn glasses since I was 8 years old.) Very thorough eye exam. She was knowledgeable, experienced with a great presence. Highly recommend her for new people to the wearing of corrective lens world or to the the people such as myself who may have seen a dozen Eye Drs through their lifetime. The Optician was kind pleasant while being fitted for my new pair of glasses. She answered my questions. She looked at my current pair and explained my choice in those lenses and suggested a better option for me. My current pair was giving me struggles with consistent focus while reading. My new pair fits my face well. The lenses are correct for each eye. My focus while driving excellent, and while reading. I am very thankful for this great team at Malik Eye Specialist of Rockford.

Dr. Malik is a great surgeon and has a good bedside manner. He has taken care of my eyes and many of my family and friends. The staff is welcoming and caring. I would highly recommend this practice for any of your eye care needs.

Update many years later my sight went from very bad to eagle eyes.. I love this place. I beleive Dr Malik is one of the best optimologist in the country. A++++++++ .... Dr. Malik, MD was a good listener. There was a certain lens I wanted for my carteract surgery and he listened. This was the lens my neighbors mom dad uncles and freinds have used with outstanding results. I was not comfortable using anything else. I was lucky he could use this lens I wanted. Remember some patients have special needs. He is also a very capable surgeon with the steadiest hands I ever seen. .... A ++++++++ Dr. Hugo R. Steinitz, M.D. takes care of my 6 month checkups.I am diabetic. He specializes in glaucoma, diabetes & systemic ophthalmology, eye emergencies, and the post-operative care of patients. He is extremely excellent and gives me the best care possible. He knows what he is doing. Thank You Dr. Steinitz. The staff was also extremely attentive, polite, and truly caring. Not one person on his staff was pushy. Will recommend him to all my friends.

First they refused to schedule an appointment for me until I had my Lens Crafters records faxed over. Lens Crafters doesn't have a fax machine that works so I drove my records over and asked for an appointment. I have astigmatism, double vision and my eye sight is getting progressively worse. I'm not even 40 years old. I just want to see an eye doctor. They refused to schedule me. I'm insured. I have money to pay up front if that's the problem. Really disappointed.
