Arnold F. Nothnagel, DO

After discussing why my eye was seeing wavy lines and how it could be fixed I was certain I was in excellent hands. He is very knowledgeable and thorough when explaining procedures and it seems so "commom" for him it sets you at ease. Post op review. He was able to NOT use a bubble as he practically promised. He can't promise anything of course, but he was certain that he could repair without the used of a bubble. He did!

Dr Nothnagel is great ! I read his reviews before my appointment and they are accurate. Office staff super nice and Dr N was thorough, listening to my concerns and provided me with information that I could understand. Highly recommend

I wish I could give Dr. Nothnagel zero stars. I work in the medical field at a top hospital, and my partner saw Dr. Nothnagel for a retinal tear. From the very beginning, the experience was alarming. He was repeatedly interrupted during her exam by staff telling him other patients were ready, and he kept leaving the room mid-exam. He did not wear gloves, wash his hands, or use hand sanitizer at any point. She even had to hold a clipboard on her chest for him to draw on during her evaluation. She required laser treatment. At the initial visit he said he couldn't complete it all at once, yet when she returned for the laser, he did all of it in one visit with no discharge instructions. Soon after, she developed new floaters and went back immediately. She was told her retina looked "perfect, won't come apart" that she had a vitreous detachment, and to simply go home. No precautions or concerns. Three days later, she abruptly lost vision in that eye. We went to another office for an urgent evaluation, where she was found to have both a macula and retina detachment, and a vitreous hemorrhage requiring emergency surgery. Dr. Nothnagel was dismissive, distracted, rushed, and overall careless. This was the worst clinical encounter I've witnessed in my entire career. Please do not see him. Your eye health deserves better.

There is always a wait to see Dr Nothnagel, but it's worth it. Dr Nothnagel and staff are always friendly, professional, and efficient! His knowledge has significantly improved my Mom's vision! Highly recommend them.
