Reviews of Retina Consultants of Southern Co: Chittum Mark MD (Ophthalmologist)

Greg S

Dr. Chittum was my mom's Dr for many years. He is compassionate and cares for his patients. He helped preserve her eyesight for many years. I wish all docs had the same level of care and compassion as Dr. Chittum. In fact I just recommended a very close friend to him. We live in Denver and I told her she owed it to herself to get his opinion before making a decision.

Dr. Chittum has no time for his patients. He is rude, abrupt, and appears disinterested in his patients as individuals. He is well aware that he is the "only game in town" regarding retinal specialists, and he acts like he can do whatever he likes because he has no other competition in Colorado Springs. He ruined one of my eyes which will never be the same. The final time I saw him I waited two hours and when I asked him a question he informed me that he was too busy and didn't have the time. I would never recommend him to anyone.

Dr Chittum & his staff took exceptional care, and that was just a bonus to saving my sight.

I went to see DrHolly and she found that I had torn retinas in both my eyes! Dr Holly referred me to Dr chittums office. Dr Rich said it could wait 3 weeks and I knew better because I only have one good eye! I didn’t wait I got on line and found a Dr in Denver and she found more tears in my left eye and said if I waited three weeks I would have lost vision in my left eye! I have since had surgery in my other eye! I have spoken with other Drs and they said Dr Rich should have evaluated me before making a decision! I would not let him do surgery even on my dog! In my opinion I would go to Denver! Dr Rich tries to blame everyone else but himself! He is a very poor Dr! In last I will say you only have two eyes and he really doesn’t care about his patients!

Dr. Chittum was my original retina specialist in the late 1990s, and I have just returned to him after a series of unsatisfactory experiences with Pueblo ophthalmologists. He is extremely knowledgeable and caring, his office is set up for all of the latest high-tech testing, his staff is wonderful, and he is a true gem in both his bedside manner and his and willingness to answer and explain any questions. Very highly recommended!
