Summit Eye Center

Visited Summit Eye Center for initial eye exam prior to cataract surgery. The office operates like clockwork and appears to be well organized. The facility is clean and staff are knowledgeable and friendly. I have a followup appointment to discuss lens options/cost and surgery timetable. I'll post a review of that experience after the appointment.

Dr. Skelsey is very kind, listens intently and thoroughly answers all of my questions. Both of my cataract surgeries were a great success! His staff is wonderfully kind and compassionate. The office area is nicely decorated and comfortable. I highly recommend Dr. Skelsey for his outstanding professionalism and his amazing skills to provide excellent care for my eyes! Thank you so much

Great from the start, .getting a appointment same day i called. Very concerned with my concerns. Good exams very clean and the wait time was short.. Very nice staff..

Everyone was excellent professional and courteous. The eye specialist was informational. I'll see them next year!

I came to Summit Eye Center for a VA claim exam scheduled through Leidos/QTC, and I was shocked at how I was treated. The doctor was rude and dismissive, telling me flat out that he "wouldn't tell me anything" and that I couldn't get a copy of my own records. When I pressed, he contradicted himself by saying I had "mild dry eyes" and that my eyes otherwise looked normal -- so apparently he can tell me things, just not when it comes to my rights. Here's the truth: under HIPAA, patients have the legal right to access their medical records. Summit Eye Center refuses to honor those rights for VA patients, hiding behind the excuse that "the VA owns the records." That is not transparency, that is stonewalling. Veterans deserve respect and honesty, not to be treated like claim numbers while their rights are brushed aside. If you're a veteran being sent here for a C&P exam, be prepared for a cold, impersonal process where HIPAA rights are ignored. It's unacceptable that a medical facility would deny patients access to their own information simply because it's tied to the VA.

The staff is great. Dr Skelsey did a cataract and stigmatism surgery on my eye. I never met him until he was doing the surgery because other Doctors and staff conducted all the testings at pre op visits. After surgery I had so much pain in my eye. I went back 5-6 times because of the pain plus I couldn't see out of my eye. I paid extra for a multi focal lens. After being told I just needed glasses I went to KU eye clinic where two Doctors told me the capsule was folded over and there were still parts of the cataract was still there and the stigmatism was not corrected. They did surgery to fix it. They told me they couldn't remove the lens without risk of making me loose my eye sight. I can only see close up not far. So much for the upgrade lens. But at least I got out of pain. I asked them if any Doctor could see the folded over capsule and lens and they said yes. I asked why didn't Dr Skelsey see it. They said there was no way he could. I will never go back to him or ever recommend him to anyone. He shouldn't be practicing. This is true neglect.

The staff is very helpful and took great care of me. Highly recommend for your eye needs!

Great experience with my office visit. The staff were personable and the doctor was great
