Dr. William C. Seefeld, MD

Outstanding Doctor! My family and I are so pleased with the treatment my son with lazy eye received. The doctor exercised every option in order to avoid surgery ( 1-3 year period) When all other options were practiced then at my request he operated. Glad to say the procedure, recovery, and follow up services were awesome. My son's surgery outcome is fabulous!!! You could never tell he had a lazy eye issue.

DO NOT bring your child to this office. He is the most impatient doctor I have ever dealt with. He make it seems like your bothering him by bringing you child there for medical help. Very impatient with young child. Please find a different office to bring your child too. Very rude and no bedside manner at all. Was holding my 1.5 year old head very hard and forcing her eyelids open because she wont cooperate. And then ask me was she always like this. He needs to understand the cognitive development of an almost 2 year old and how they behave.

I had a very difficult first experience taking my one year old to her first appointment with Dr. Seefeld. We had a very long wait in the waiting room and it made for a very grumpy baby. But, my daughter just had her eye procedure this week and I am SO impressed with the care we received. Dr Seefeld is amazing! I felt so comfortable, I had no unanswered questions, and Dr Seefeld just took such good care of my baby girl. He is a great doctor and fantastic at what he does. Highly recommend him!

All I have to say is STAY AWAY! Rude staff starting with Dr. Seedeld. Went twice, 1st time I thought they were just having a hard day, 2nd time he's yelling at me because my son's eyes are getting worse and why he's not wearing glasses. He never told me he needed them and never gave me a prescription. Also there was another special needs child there that he refused to see because the child was yelling. He told the parents to go see another doctor. They didn't speak English but they were there with a case manager. I do not expect the royal treatment but at least some respect specially when dealing with special needs children.

Is it possible to give a ZERO? This guy is the most arrogant insensitive excuse for a doctor I have ever encountered!! Isn't it time for him to call it quits or get disbanded from practice? Spare yourself and your child the emotional pain.

Waste of time! I had to reschedule an appointment that the office cancelled on me because of the snow storm (fine and understandable ) but when I tried calling back to reschedule it took me two days! Phone service is terrible and receptionist had zero personality. I decided to just try them because my insurance referred me to them and it was local. When we arrived to the office the receptionist ignored my son and I for a minute as they were laughing and chatting (meanwhile another gentleman walked in and was waiting). I ended up saying "Hi I'm here for my sons appointment" and just interrupted them because my four year old son wasn't happy about waiting. The receptionist (didn't have a name tag but did have a binder clip closing her cardigan closed) was rude and I could barely understand what she was saying. Then she asked what insurance I had. When I told her she said "No,actually it's xyz!" So I said "Okay then why would you ask me if you knew more than I did?" She said "It's okay, you'll get a notice in the mail soon about it!" Ummm okay?? Then she told me to have a seat. Two seconds later the nurse came out and brought us in the room (no complaints she was very nice and took her time with my son who has special needs and I was worked up from the nasty front desk experience!) During the office visit the nurse had to go get new patient paperwork which reception failed to give me so now dealing with a tired, four year old while holding our coats and filling out paperwork in the waiting room was fun! Doctor Seefeld was ok but seemed very rushed although he did get my son to laugh and focus! Lol I understand doctors are very busy and do the best they can and if I had to work with the front desk that he does I probably would be a lot less patient! We were sent to the waiting area while my sons eyes were dilating and a staff memeber was eating something with very powerful onions! Sounds silly to mention but just an added thing that turned my stomach about the office. Do they not have a lunch room? Are they not allowed lunch breaks?? Is there an office manager?? The exam rooms are very out dated! At check out the receptionist didn't have much of a personality and was like a robot . When leaving I felt frustrated and disappointed then overheard the receptionist explain where the bathroom was to another mom with a small child and again she was rude and the mom couldn't understand her so I felt a little better!! We plan on changing offices but felt the need to warn any parent who is looking for a comfortable,welcoming office with staff memebers who enjoy seeing patients to STAY AWAY!! I honestly got home and felt like I wasted two hours of my day!

I would have given him ZERO stars if I could. He was the most impatient, dead rude, and snobby doctor I ever encountered. His demeanor was so mortifying in front of my child, the humiliation and embarrassment was unbelievable. It sucks there are not many eye doctors in MA. But if I have to, even tho I live close to Springfield, I would drive all the way to Boston JUST TO AVOID THIS RUDE SNOBBY OLDMAN who calls himself a health care professional but lacks proper human communication in every single way.

Very knowledgeable. Happy with son's blocked tear duct surgery when he was 2 yrs old. 3 stars because of personality. Dr. seefeld was not very patient with my autisic son. Has a very dry, professional demeener. One would think he would have more of a pleasent & fun personality working with children. Great doctor for fixing vision problems, avoid if you're looking for a more down to earth, sense of humor kind of doctor.
