Joanna Pruzon, D.O.

This was the worst experience I've ever had in a doctor's office, and I don't say that lightly. I've been seeing Dr. Pruzon since November (4 times over the last 2.5 months for a stye/chalazion removal that should have been an easy fix) and was hoping each time that it'd get better but I have been astonished at how unprofessional her office is. I have never seen a staff as inept and poorly trained as this one. They literally yell at each other from room to room, in front of patients! They are ALWAYS running around with their heads cut off, confused why people were booked at the times they were. They ask YOU why you're back for a follow-up and what they did last, even though you're just doing the treatment plan they gave. It's a very strange experience and I can't get over the poor bedside manner. Not only is it weirdly casual, but it also doesn't feel like they're following proper hygiene protocols with cleaning the rooms/equipment in between patients, and before she starts touching your eye. She walks in the room, even touches her phone, and then starts touching my eyes! There were also 2 appts where I showed up weeks later for the operation that SHE had told me to come back for after taking the prescribed medicine... and when I get there she tells me that she doesn't have time to do it and that her front desk shouldn't have scheduled me for that time. This happened TWICE. Meanwhile, I kept having to pay the co-pays and getting off of work for these appts. And 2.5 months later my eye is STILL not cleared up or back to normal, for something that most people tell me is an easy treatment. Today put the nail in the coffin with her office staff member Anna on the phone who was so unbelievably rude and short when trying to reschedule my follow up with Dr. Pruzon... I can't even believe a doctor allows her staff to talk to people that way. I'm confused why there are so many good reviews on here because every time I go in, the patients are having issues. I was really trying to stay patient over these last couple months and hold out hope, but it's time to find a more reputable eye doctor. Don't risk it!

From the moment I entered, I felt at ease, the staff was very attentive, friendly and professional. Dr. Pruzon is very attentive to her patients, answered all my questions. I didn't felt rushed. I'm very happy and pleased I finally got to see Dr. Pruzon! I met Dr. Pruzon when she did her residency at Ophthalmology Dept.At UMDNJ in Newark, NJ

This was my first time seeing Dr Pruzon as I had an emergency situation where she was able to see me. She was so nice and thorough. Listened to the history and helped me with a plan forward. Really appreciate how the entire office was willing to get me in and checked.

I completely adore Dr. Pruzon. Throughout the process of exams, scheduling and cataract surgery, she answered questions, explained in terms easy to understand and was never afraid to show her human side. I couldn't be happier with my results!

I thought Dr. Pruzon was great being it was my first experience having an extensive eye exam. As a result, it was determined that I needed cataract surgery in my right eye. My cataract surgery was scheduled and then canceled because I was told my BM was too high and they didn't want to take the risk. I totally understand that but I spoke with Leslie who informed me of this issue but to date no one contact me with any alternative arrangements except to inform me that I probably will be referred to a Retina Specialist so the procedure can be done in a hospital for my safety. I'm still waiting for the arrangements. I just thought they observed my weight in-person so they should have known it would present an issue. Instead, here I am disappointed that I didn't receive the surgery on the scheduled day and still waiting for resolution.

Dr. Pruzon is very friendly, personable and knowledgeable. She provides exceptional examinations with clear and detailed explanations of her findings.

She listened to my questions and gave me her full attention Her staff were helpful especially the person that took all the information before I saw the doctir.

Dr.Pruzon and her staff treated me with professionalism and empathy.
