Solinsky EyeCare, LLC Booked an appointment for my daughter via phone in Aug 1st week. Eye Check up was scheduled for Sep 30, 2017. Went for the eye check up, got to know that they forgot to note the appontment in their system. It's easy to say, sorry. Though didn't mean anything. Really professional behavior!
Dr Solinsky is very caring and thoughtful in explanations of cataract surgery. The staff there is efficient and friendly!
ACTUALLY I WOULD RATE SOLINSKY A 10 STAR RATING FROM THE FIRST TIME I WALKED INTO THE DOOR WAS TREATED WONDERFUL BY ALL. I WOULD ALSO GIVE HARTFORD HOSPITAL EYE CARE IN NEWINGTON CT A 10 STAR RATING EVERYONE VERRY HELPFULL. I WOULD LIKE TO ESPECIALLY THANK DOCTOR DAVID JENG MY SURGEN HE TESTED MADE SURE EVERYTHING WAS CORRECT THEN DID MY CATERACT SURGERY EXPLAIND EVERYTHING IN DETAIL EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS GOING TO DO WOULD MOST DEFINITELY TELL ALL TO GO TO SOLINSKEY. PS EXCEPT DOCTOR JENG TOLD ME WHEN HE REMOVED THE STICKY MASK THEY USE DURING SURGERY WAS GOING TO HURT WHEN HE TOOK IT OFF HURT!!!!!!!! I THOUGHT HE RIPPED MY FACE OFF. ONLY KIDDING THEY ARE ALL WONDERFUL PEOPLE.
Just finished having cataract surgery in both eyes and used the ReSTOR lens recommended by Dr. Solinsky. Could not be happier. Dr Solinsky listens to what you have to say, understands the problems and solves them. Dr Solinsky's staff is very knowledgeble and friendly. Would recommend highly. Thank You Dr. Solinsky and staff.
I recently had eye surgery with from Dr. Solinsky! He is a very skilled surgeon. He has a nice personality, very patient and kind! He was willing to answer all of my questions prior to surgery! The office staff is always extremely courteous and friendly. This is a full service office where I was also able to get new glasses and contact lenses. Very convenient!
Dr. Solinsky recently performed cataract surgery on both of my eyes. He also performed procedures to alleviate the pressure and extreme astigmatism in both eyes. He is not only an awesome surgeon but also has a most remarkable bedside manner. I am now able to see without glasses - for me this is a miracle. He has a gift! Everyone at Solinsky Eye Care is top notch. Competent, understanding, and kind.
Recently had double cataract surgery. Followed Dr. Solinsky"s recommendation for IOL type, very satisfied with results.
Very professional staff.
Dr. Hamm is the best. Very good at explaining things and making you feel comfortable.
I had an excellent experience with DR DAVID JENG he is agreat dr and the staff are so friendly
The front office staff is always very friendly and understanding. Pretty quick service.
Bad customer service No any call or email before cancellation of our opponents.
Absolutely love this office. I’m so happy I came here, completely through and easy to talk to the staff. I was nervous and was put to ease immediately. Christina was my nurse who started the exam . She was efficient and took her time with me. Continued to sanitize every part of the eye machine and explained the process. Then I had Jessica Olewnik who did the final part of the exam and again sanitized every part of the machine. Was patient and had a true concern for my situation and gave me a solution that was perfect for me . Thank you both for helping me through this exam .
I received excellent and prompt service on very short notice.
I woke up Sunday,Memorial Day Weekend with my eye feeling like there was something large stuck in the upper left lid. We had tickets for Milan leaving JFK the next day. I did not hot have an eye doctor and panic set in. I went online , found Solinsky Eyecare in West Hartford. The reviews were great... so on a long shot I gave a call and to my surprise OD Jessica Olewnik returned my call and met me at her office within two hours. She was amazing, diagnosed drops for me and saved our trip. I have continued treatment until my eye was cured. I had an eye exam today. Wonderful staff , professional and truly care about their patients.
I am receiving care for a complex cataract condition. The care that I am receiving is excellent. Everyone who has a role in my care has been skilled, very professional and caring. I know that I will have the best outcome possible because of the advanced technology available and the superior professionals involved. Bonna Neuhauser
Dr. Solinsky is a great Opthamologist and I have been going to him for 24 years. He is very knowledgeable and kind, working with me in a way that respects me and my input, creating a real partnership in my treatment for glaucoma. Dr. Solinsky also hires staff members who are also very professional and friendly. Together they form a tightly-knit team upon whom I can depend for the very best care.
My Dad, Wade Signor had the cataract in his right eye removed via laser surgery on 8-6-2019. As a result he is able to see without glasses for the first time since he was sixteen!!! Thank you Dr Solinsky and all of your medical staff for giving him this fantastic gift!!!
My family has used this practice for several years. We find Dr. Solinsky to be a knowledgable and caring practitioner. He spends the necessary time to give my family the best care possible. Unlike many doctors, I have never felt rushed out of the office. We will continue to use this practice for many more years to come.
I went to Solinsky Eyecare for a routine eye exam and new glasses. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I felt like I got a good, thorough eye exam. I love my new glasses, I see much better with them and they look great.
I chose this office because of visiting with a patient of the office and because of my Insurance. The doctors and office staff were great, but I encountered a problem with the optical center, and I am not very happy right now. . I picked up my progressive glasses in early June, at which time in indicated to the tech that I could not read fine print properly, with the glasses. She stated that I would have to be re-examined. I suggested that I will wear them a little to see if my eyes adjusted. At a scheduled appointment on June 30th I had my eyes re-examine, and went to the Optical center to have my new Rx filled. I requested that I keep my glasses as I needed them for work, and just redo the lens. I was well within my warranty time to have the lens redone. I was expecting to get the lenses back in about 2 weeks , like it was for the glasses. After not receiving a call back from a message , I called today only to be told that my lenses were not processed as I needed to come in for measurement. This is a whole 3 weeks later and my lenses have not been processed and I did not receive a call to come in for the measurements. This is a disservice to me as I now have to to take time off to come in and wait again for my lenses. Thank You Lurlene Williams
I have been a patient of Dr. Solinsky for many years and return every year for a check up even though I now live out of state. One of the reasons I come back year after year is the friendliness and skill of his excellent staff. Whoever is doing the hiring is doing a great job! Thank you all for making my visits filled with smiles, helpful advice and professionalism.
I cannot stop bragging about Dr. Solinsky whom I consider the miracle man who so successfully restored my priceless gift of sight exceeding my expectations. It's like magic but for real. From the moment I met him on my initial visit 9/16/15, I knew I was in competent hands. His knowledge, professionalism & expertise was very comforting setting my mind at ease. Even though I was aware of the many advances in cataract surgery, I had procrastinated for years all the while realizing the progression of my cataract was obstructing my vision which would only worsen if left unattended. In retrospect, wish I hadn't waited so long to proceed with this procedure as the result may not have been so favorable. Admittedly, I was consumed with fear thinking the outcome would be dim caused my delay. Quite the contrary. After Dr. Solinsky thoroughly explained everything to me, I had full confidence in his outstanding ability & now thrilled beyond measure with the astonishing & amazing renewed sight which cannot be overstated. The surgical removal performed on Oct. 6th was completed painless on all levels. Simply incredible for which I am truly grateful. I highly recommend the compassionate team associated with this state of the art facility & especially Dr. Solinsky whom I consider THE BEST for optimum ophthalmological & quality care. With esteem & profound appreciation, I extend kudos to Solinsky Eye Care. Seeing is believing & I'm a confirmed believer. Most Sincerely, Merita Burlington, CT
I was having complications after having cataract surgery from a different doctor. My family doctor recommended I go see Dr. Solinsky for a second opinion. I was told he was one of the best if not the best ophthalmologist in CT. This is a strong recommendation from one of his peers. I made an appointment and was very impressed. He was kind, empathetic, and very easy to talk to. He researched my problem with colleagues across the country. He drew up his own treatment plan and performed two successful surgeries. Great doctor! Drop your present doctor and call for an appointment today. You won’t regret it.
I had a good visit until I inquired about the buy one get one free sign. I was told to see the folks on the lower level as the assistant serving me had no knowledge. Then when I went down to get my glasses. I was made to feel as if the only ones to benefit from that service would be those persons who were wealthy enough to be paying cash for their glasses. If insurance covers any portion of your glasses you were not entitled to a free pair. So although I had to pay well over three hundred dollars for my glasses I could not get a free pair. How unfair is that? Maybe the sign should read in large print for the well to do only....
Dr Solinsky saved my mom's life. She was having problems seeing out of the corner of her right eye. He noticed immediately she was not getting blood flow and ordered a ct scan of her carotid artery and called her prinary dr and they ordered an MRI of brain. She was having a stroke. Jefferson radiology called an ambulance and she had a 99% blockage and was saved by dr solinsky's fast action. My family is do very grateful to dr solinsky for all he did. We are blessed to still have our mom with us.
I see them every 3 months for eye problems and have had nothing but great, professional but personal and kind service. I am very happy with all the staff on the medical side and eye glasses dispensing side.
Very patient with me. I freak with people messing with my eye!
I called this office with somewhat of an emergency eye issue. They had availability and fit me and almost within the hour. Upon arrival I was seeing rather quickly, my condition diagnosed and treated. The office staff was excellent in addition to the assistant and the doctors. I see why they are ranked so highly in the Hartford area...they deserve it! Thank you!!
Excellent service and dedication to helping people
Dr Solinsky performed both of my cataract surgeries this month. He is very patient with questions, not only explains options available but also the advantages and disadvantages of each, allowing us to make informed decisions. His staff is excellent, and he is extremely knowledgeable and competent. I happily recommend him to anyone in need of an eye specialist. Thanks, Dr Solinsky, for restoring the sight of my youth!
Dr. Solinsky and his staff are amazing. All the doctors truly take the time to look past the simple answers other doctors tend to quickly diagnose. They follow their leader and their leader- and the leader, Dr. Solinsky is superb. As a busy physician myself, I tend to research my prospect doctors well before our my initial visit. A quick look in Dr. Solinsky's CV revealed a decorated doctor with a immense body of knowledge and various accolades from colleges and patients alike. Following my visits with him, I found Dr. Solinsky to be kind, attentive, perceptive and very meticulous. He loves what he does and it shows!. His staff are highly trained and take the time to answer all my insurance questions. I recommend Dr. Solinsky to all of my patients. Dr. Laub, BPT, DC
All of the technicians, doctors and optometrists were efficient, professional, and upbeat. I felt very welcome at the reception desk and by the assistants who did the initial evaluations. Dr. Guimond was very accommodating (no pun intended) of my cowardice with regard to glaucoma testing and broke out their special tonometer to get it done with minimal fuss. Had a great time picking out glasses at the eyewear center. It won't be your least expensive option, but they take the time to get you a product that fits well and will work. I'm happy to support a local business that provides great service even if it costs a bit more.
The staff is highly trained very professional and thorough and I was very satisfied with the eye exam and prescription.
Excellent staff. Great experience with Dr. Janik.
Its always a pleasant
Everyone was friendly and the exam was thorough. They explained what they were doing and what to expect. Great experience.
The doctors was very caring and very helpful
Waste of time and money. My sister and I got wrong prescriptions and the glasses caused headaches, We got our eyes checked somewhere else and our prescriptions were both wrong, I am never coming here again.
Recently saw Dr Solinsky to have a LIPIFLOW procedure. What a great experience. Dr Solinsky himself was great to talk too. He took the time to explain thoroughly what took place and what to expect. The following people in his office were great too. Mederly,Jeanette,Allison & Steve. Very friendly and highly professional. I would highly recommend them.
Nice staff!! Dr. Susan Janik was great! Super friendly, sweet and I was shocked she had knowledge on my corneal neauralgia condition. First OD here in CT to know about this rare disease. She was professional and gave me the right meds to clear up my corneal abrasion. Thank you dr.Janik I’m glad I feel so much better!
Dr. Solinsky is a fabulous doctor and his staff is very professional, friendly and pleasant. All the doctors are great! I just had cataract surgery and the process was very organized and professional. I am very pleased with my results. I would highly recommend this practice. There is always a doctor available to see in case of an urgent need for an appointment. The only negative is there is usually a long wait in the waiting room. Expect to be there at least an hour.
Staff was very friendly and professional answered all my questions i did ask about why i was there for i would recommend to friends and family of my visit.
I’ve got an irritated eye right now that I can barely see out of. I got a prescription from this place a while back and I called the pharmacy asking for a refill. They faxed the doctor a request last Wednesday. I called the doctor on Friday and couldn’t get through. I called again on Monday. The first time I was called, I pressed the button in the automated system for prescription refills, which gives you a prerecorded message to call your pharmacy then hangs up. So I called back and pressed the button to schedule an appointment figuring. I could get a doctor on the line. I was on hold for a minute or two, then the person who picked up hung up before saying anything. I called back and was on hold for 15 minutes, then it rang into an answering machine. I left a message saying I need a prescription and that my eye is very uncomfortable and that I didn’t appreciate how hard it is to get a hold of them. I still haven’t heard back. I’m obviously done with this place, I just figured I’d save someone else the trouble. I sincerely hope they hire a consultant who can help them figure out how to serve their patients. I also really hope I can get my eye addressed by a legitimate doctors office soon before it gets worse and more painful.
I was referred to doctor Solinsky by Lasik Plus in Wethersfield. I planned to see him for my annual exams. I woke up yesterday with a severe allergic reaction to something that had touched my eyes. At 11:00 this morning I decided to call. The person on the phone was extremely friendly and was able to get me an appointment in a half hour. After filling out paperwork I waited another 20 minutes or so which I thought was good considering I was a last minute emergency. Dr Solinski was easy to talk to and professional. After examining my eyes he assured me that no damage had been done. He put medicated drops in my eyes and gave me a sample and instructions. My eyes felt much better after a few hours. I will definitely return.
I was very pleased to be seen exactly on time. The medical assistant was pleasant and courteous and explained every part of my eye exam. Dr. Lee came in immediately and answered all if my questions.
The level of service here is always exceptional. Prompt, professional and very attentive.
Best ever ! Clean quiet , fast and good services. Great Doctor's and nurse's , Secretary are polite and friendly.. Great place to go and have ur Eye's Check ...
I'll keep my comments to myself. Dr Solinsky and have spoken.
I have been going to Solinsky EyeCare since moving to Connecticut 10 years ago, and I have recommended them to many people. I need to go in quarterly, so that's quite a few visits over the years. The staff is always friendly and even though there are always a lot of patients, they keep you moving. They have a ton of equipment so you can get everything you need to care for eyes in one place. Dr. Solinsky is the doctor I see, and I can't say enough good things about him - he explains what you need to know, he gives you time and attention, it never feels rushed, and he seems like a genuinely nice guy; in summary, he has excellent "bedside" manner. A few years ago I was getting glasses at a chain, and when the woman saw where my prescription was from she said "Oh, people rave about that place!" which is a pretty good endorsement!
Dr. Solinsky has been my ophthalmologist for more than 20 years. His expertise, professionalism and care for patients is unequaled. His practice is like a well-oiled machine.When you walk in the door, you are greeted by a smiling receptionist who treats you like you are the only patient in the office, and it's a very busy office indeed She has your file at her fingertips and wastes no time in checking you in. On my last visit , I never even had a chance to take off my coat before I was escorted to an exam room by a professional who examined my eyes and did all necessary testing without wasting a minute. It's clear that Dr. Solinsky treats his staff well, exhibited by their warmth and genuine caring.
Very friendly and professional staff. Just the right waiting time. Excellent overall.
Excellent place for a family !!!! Very good doctors and the front desk staff always give us a very warm welcome. I highly recommended this place.
I have been a very satisfied patient or Dr. Solinsky for 25 years. Early-on he carefully examined my very near sighted eyes. During a routine exam of my son Dr. Solinsky spotted a problem sent him a retinal specialist on the same day. The next day the specialist operated on his eye preventing a detached retina. When I needed cataract surgery, Dr. Solinsky offered me mono-vision. That is different corrections in each eye: one eye's correction optimized for close objects, the other for distant objects. This leads to perfect vision without glasses or contact lenses. The surgery was a complete success. The staff is great too.
only going here because insurance covers. I m looking into other places. receptionists are VERY rude. always with attitude. never call for follow ups or reminders, the waiting?? just don't plan anything else for the rest of the morning. the glasses they have in the lower lvl are so expensive. just not happy here
Very nice staff, fairly quick service, and knowledgable and kind doctor!
I recently visited the Enfield office for an eye exam. Never being to an eye doctor in my 51 years, I wasn't sure what to expect. They sat me down and asked me to explain my issues and within 30 minutes they had it all figured out. Staff was great and very professional. 7 days later I went back for my glasses and happy to say they nailed it! I highly recommend them.
Great staff, very welcoming and aware of people’s struggle of the unknown. Quite efficient and friendly. Dr. Jeremy whang was great , factual and very re-assuring!
Double billed my two insurance companies. Eye med and anthem. I will be filing a complaint with the state of Connecticut. So not fair. Double dipping eye doctor. Stay away from them. Not worth the hassle.
Everyone was very professional and very polite
Dr. Chateauneuf has been treating me for about a year now, and I highly recommend her. She's very kind and very competent. She also fine tuned my contact prescription, and nailed it!
Very prompt helpful and overall a great experience.
Laurie is one of THE best receptionist ever and Dr. Chateauneuf, is fantastic! They go the extra mile to accommodate, making life so much easier.
Great experience! Everyone was pleasant, professional and took time to answer my questions and concerns.
I'm new to Dr. Solinsky's practice as of this month. I found him online and read all reviews. This made my decision to see him easier. The office is well staffed and everyone, from the front desk to the people who prep you before hand, are wonderful. Dr. Solinsky is very nice, professional and makes you feel comfortable. If you're looking for a new eye doctor, I highly recommend him.
Absolutely fantastic experience in every possible way. Miraculous change in vision beyond my wildest thoughts, all after many years of very challenged vision. I should have taken Dr. Solinskys advise to do the cataract surgery sooner. He's not only an amazingly skilled physician but also a fantastic human being. It doesn't get better.Also, and this is very important, he is supported by a wonderful staff. I could not recommend more highly. Update: just had second eye done another superb experience with fantastic results.
My mother constantly have appointments at Solinsky Eyecare and I love every time we go because the entire staff there is great. I have to say that our 2 favorite technicians are Raquel and Issac, they go above and beyond in treating my mother with excellence and genuine care. Raquel is sweet and very friendly, I love her personality and care for my mother. Isaac is very handsome and a total gentleman. He as well is very sweet, caring, and extremely professional. As for my mother's doctor, Dr. Jeng, he is absolutely amazing. He has operated my mother from cataract's on both eyes and being a diabetic person I was a bit worried for any side effects of the surgery and my mother came out like she hadn't gone through surgery at all, no side effects whatsoever. He is a great doctor and treats my mother with lots of care and love. I highly recommend Solinsky Eyecare to everyone I know and I would NOT change you guys for ANYTHING. Keep up the good work!!
Today I had almost no wait at all. The staff was friendly and efficient; Dr. Hwang was wonderful and answered all of my questions.
Loyal patient for many years!! Knowledgeable, courteous, staff!!!
My eye exam was handled nicely and timely. Both the assistant and the Dr were so friendly and made me feel at ease! And I was given trial lenses and extra solution samples! I highly recommend Solinsky EyeCare!
A very professional office, I was treated with respect by the medical assistant and the doctor. They were efficient, kind, and explained things clearly. I highly recommend them.
I am extremely satisfied with the care received by Dr. Solinsky and his professional staff. Thanx for caring for me.
Dr. Jeng took me in right away when I had an eye problem. I have had follow up visits to make sure all was going well. He is a wonderful doctor and the entire staff is incredibly nice and helpful. This is a model office with great training and great people. I truly appreciated it when my eye was doing something out of the norm and I was scared. I'd highly recommend Dr. Jeng and Solinski EyeCare. I have also gone to the Enfield office and they are also well trained and pleasant. I
Never again. The worst wait at a doctors office. Staff is unprofessional. Called to see why my son wasn't seen yet and was put on hold for 6 minutes. Yet alone my 6 yr has been sitting there with my mom since 245pm and it's now 419 has not been seen. My other son is done and restless. Will be looking for a new place soon.
I thank GOD for directing me to Solinsky EyeCare. I have been a lifelong patient of eye doctors, having been born with congenital cataracts. During the years I have faced many different difficulties with my eyes, and though seen by many “nice” providers, have suffered often for lack of true compassion and interest in the difficulties my situations have presented. I have been involved with many office visits over the last year especially, facing surgeries, as well as some serious loss of vision, and getting no where fast as my vision declined, I started searching the web, and praying for direction. I was led to Solinsky EyeCare, and from the very first contact, I have found everything I read about, and listened to from Dr Solinsky on their website to be nothing but true. First, on my initial visit, the office was packed, and as I paid close attention to all that was going on around me I felt like I was at an international gathering!. There seemed to be about 20 different staff members, all busy about people, and what I saw was a marvelously orchestrated symphony of compassion, kindness, and professionalism. I also believe it is important to say all of these staff members were young, especially because we hear so much negative about the young men and women in this country, it is important to brag on these young people! I heard multiple conversations in Spanish which speaks volumes of their ability to meet the needs of those coming to the office. Dr Solinsky said on his Web presentation that they have literally applied to every insurance offered in Connecticut so as not to turn anyone away, and my heart was blessed to see as I looked around, it had to be True. Second, as busy as it was they kept me moving, and quickly had me settling in with Dr Solinsky’s Technician, who would do my work up before seeing Dr Solinsky. His name was John, and I think it is very important because of all the negative words that freely criticize and defame any and everyone all too often, that this man gets praised where praise is due. Never was I met in my 57 year history of being the patient of eye care professionals, with the level of compassion and interest in the difficulties I was facing, than I was this first morning with John. It was deeply appreciated and needed as I had gone from about a 20x40 in my right eye last September after surgery, to a right eye that could barely see the biggest single letter on the eye chart. Then I met Dr Solinsky, and was met with exactly what I found on his videos, he was relaxed, soft spoken, kind and was very aggressively professional with the seriousness of my situation. Kindness is powerful to the hurting soul, He was very open to suggest the possible outcome of the future of my eyes, if we could not turn things around with efforts to restore my vision. This is what in my heart I knew to be true, and it was so refreshing to hear someone tell me the truth I needed to hear in order to attempt to save my eyesight. I have been at their office three times and with each visit I am blessed immensely by each and every staff member and by the mission of Dr Solinsky to fulfill his passion to serve their patients with compassion and professionalism and to be as progressive as he can to offer the best care. Whether or not I am able to restore my vision, I finally feel like I am not sitting on the sidelines any longer watching my vision go out the window and finding no one that will run the race with me to do what ever it takes to save it. And if I loose it, I have complete Trust that GOD will be with me and complete confidence that this office will do their best to bring about a winning outcome if it be in GOD’S will. Thank you Dr Solinsky for your mission, and your passion to see it come to full fruition! May the LORD multiply back to you and your staff all that you selflessly serve your patients with, and continue to bring increase to your practice so that many more will experience a wonderful team of professionals in their hour of need. GOD be with you all! Rev. Leanna Corvo
i just had cataract surgery and next day my eye is 20 20 it is hard to belive. Dr Solinsky is caring and did a great job with no pain or problems. . The staff at the office is great and by all means i feel that this is the best place and option if you need this service..
solinsky eye care was scary because i cry they will hurt me.
Excellent care and attention. This was my first visit to Solinsky Eyecare and I was very impressed.
I came in with Twins but the visit for was for my daughter. The nurses got me in right away. They explained everything that they were going to do prior to touching my Young child. The doctor saw me right away and made the best recommendation. He explained everything clearly. He was very professional and kid friendly. Very relaxed atmosphere and I was well taken care of. Down in scheduling Mia was amazing. She covered all of my concerns and my concerns for her concerns. I love this place better than a typical Childrens Eyecare place.
Very good encelent médico
I recently had eye surgery with Dr. Solinsky and I am very pleased with the results. He that took the time to explain in detail what was going to occur and what the follow-up care would involve. He is a skilled surgeon and did a fantastic job. In addition I found that all of the employees I dealt with were very thoughtful, helpful and informative as well as very personable.
My appointment started on time. All my questions were answered to my satisfaction. I left feeling good about the experience, believing my eyesight will be where it should be after I get my new glasses. Only disappointment is having to wait 2 weeks to get my new glasses.
Have been using the services of Solinsky Eyecare for several years and find the MD and staff to be professional, knowledgeable, efficient and friendly. The owner, specialist MD is extremely up to date and I trust his professional opinion after my annual check-ups. Since I am a senior, I am more aware of aging conditions that can affect my sight. I rely on Dr. Solinsky's expertise to guide me accordingly.
The entire staff is friendly and professional. Dr. Charlene Chateauneuf is very knowledgeable and a pleasant person to deal with. I will return
I was very apprehensive about having cataract surgery, but now that I've had both eyes done I can't believe how well I can see again. The doctors and staff are fantastic!
Dr. Solinsky was very patient with me - especially during the procedures. He listened to my concerns and answered my questions. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Overall, a wonderful experience. It is great to be able to see without glasses or contacts. I would not hesitate to recommend him.
Great experience from making an appointment to reception through my exam. First appt. and they were able to see me the next day because of a concern about my symptoms. Very short wait to be greeted and checked in, equally short wait to get to the back for my appt. Dr. Ham is very easy to talk and did a great job of explaining my eye condition, which fortunately was not a serious condition. I highly recommend Solinsky Eyecare!
Staff was extremely knowledgeable, professional and friendly. They explained everything to me and offered the best way to get discounts. The exam itself was thourough. I will be using them from now on.
Irene Sparks I had laser assisted cataract surgery performed on both of my eyes in October of 2018 by Dr. Solinksy. I am extremely please with the results & truly forever grateful for the excellent advice and care I received from Dr Solinsky and his staff at both the West Hartford & East Hartford offices. I was extremely nervous about the procedures but Dr. Solinsky patiently & clearly explained all of my options, the process, the costs & after care. His expertise & kindness was very reassuring & eased my anxieties. Prior to the surgery I thought I would have to give up driving - but now I don't even need glasses anymore - which I have been wearing for more than 50 years. I am amazed & only wish I had found Dr. Solilnsky sooner & had the procedures performed years ago.
I have been a patient of Dr. Alan Solinsky for close to 10 years. During that time, I have experienced outstanding care from the entire staff. In my opinion, Dr. Solinsky is one of the best Doctors in the Country. He makes you feel extremely comfortable and puts your mind at ease. About 4 years ago, Dr. Solinsky had to remove a rather large "cyst" from my eye. I remember being nervous about this, but he performed the surgery with no problem and I felt no pain. Additionally, Dr. Solinsky, recently performed cataract surgery on my wives eyes. He did an outstanding job, and we are so thankful that he is our Doctor. Additionally, the staff is just wonderful. The office manager, Cara, is a delight and has always been helpful. I wish I could remember the names of more of his staff, but truly they are wonderful. Finally, I would like to state that Doctor Janick is also a great doctor, She has helped me and my wife on numerous occasions and is just great....... Keep up the great work, and you can bet that I will continue to recommend people to Solinsky EyeCare.
A very efficient office and staff. Appointment time was met. The exam was completed quickly and efficiently.
Everyone is friendly and the doctors take their time to explain everything.
I’ve been a patient if Dr. Solinsky for almost 20 years, and am very pleased with the care that I’ve been provided in those years. I had switched to a different ophthalmologist’s practice for a few years, because of my concern about the large number of patients and the often long waiting period at Solinsky’s. But, I returned to Solinsky after there was a problem in my clinical care. He has since greatly improved the care system, by assigning different aspects of assessment, testing, and clerical processes to various staff members. The process is now more streamlined and effective. I recommend Dr. Solinsky to everyone who asks for a referral. He and his team of ophthalmologists and assistants are all very skilled and conscientious about their care for me, my wife, and I assume other patients whom they treat.
I was very upset this morning after going for my yearly eye exam. Once I got to the office and checked in I was told that my exam would not be covered because I had an exam few weeks ago. I told the office person that the information is not correct and I was told that it is my job to check my insurance. I called my insurance to find out the problem and was given a different story. Nevertheless my year would not be eligible until 12/5. When I question the inconsistency I did not received a positive feedback. I left the office without been seen and no apology for wasting my time or the incorrect insurance information given. I have been going to this office for years and this is the first I felt like finding a new provider. The front desk workers are very unprofessional and don’t know how to deal with people. I left the office very upset.
Best eye exam experience in a long time. We have a difficult vision insurance and have been burned before with billing. First time at Solinsky and things could not have gone smoother. Thank you!! Highly recommend this provider. They have earned my business for life!
For the first time in 65 years, I have 20/20 vision in both eyes, without eyeglasses (that were always smeared and hurt my nose), and without contacts lenses that present their own set of problems. It is all thanks to Dr. Solinsky who helped me prep my right eye for one year, his staff and the Eye Surgical Unit of Hartford Hospital, the most pleasant and professional staff, even at 6:00 am! Thank you!!!!
Long drive to get to the appointment. I know what a drag it is when the last appointment of the day is delayed for even just a little, which is what happened when I had to run back to the car to get my glasses. I appreciate the fact that the staff remained professional for the entire appointment and beyond. Thank You for being quite the patient, caring professionals that you are!
The office staff was Very professional and organized.
Fabulous office. Lovely staff. Professional, on time, I highly recommend them.
Went and saw a student doctor who was very thorough and patient. The staff are all very nice and the office is very clean and welcoming. I would highly recommend them.
I have been affiliated with Dr. Solinsky's team for quite a few years. Having a severe aversion to anything pertaining to my eyes, I am always a hand full. Dr. Erin McCleary has always displayed patience and professionalism when dealing with me and recently cared for my wife after a serious auto accident. I also referred my brother to Dr. Solinsky which resulted in subsequent surgeries. Being referred to Dr. Solinsky by my PCP many years ago, I have nothing but good to say and have never run into anything but complete, competent care, knowing if I need them in an emergency they schedule you immediately. Most likely the busiest eye care facility in Hartford, they strive for excellence and have certainly met my expectations.
I, Peter Masonis recently had cataract surgery performed by Dr. SOLINSKY on my right eye. The results can only be characterized as surreal and incredible. My "new" vision now allows me to see distances clearly with wonderful definition for the first time ever! Dr. Solinsky is marvelous, competent, and truly a master in doing cataract surgery. Dr. Solinsky's charm and engaging personality immediately puts one at ease and makes the initial experience very pleasant and relaxing. One would be hard pressed to find a Doctor as gracious, knowledgable, professional, and caring as Dr. Solinsky. Thank you, Peter Masonis
My wife had been going to Dr. Solinsky for awhile following the retirement of her previous doctor and was very satisfied with Dr. Solinsky and his practice - in the Summer of 2017 I decided to leave a much smaller practice and come on board with Dr. Solinsky also - to date everyone involved with my eye care has been helpful , courteous, and professional - I also like being with a larger practice for coverage when there is the occasional ad hoc appointment request - I'm glad I made the switch .
Courteous and professional. Always full though, most of the time you have to wait even with an appointment. Other than that, it is a good place.
The staff was quick, knowledgeable and kind.
Their service for eye exams is fine. The staff is polite, and everything goes well. However, downstairs where they sell eyeglasses? Their selection for kids? SUCKS! They hardly have any ray bans for adults and they have zero raybans for kids. Ray bans are one of the most popular frames! Also, not a single Oakley frame. Instead they have Lafonte from Paris which is $250 per frame. For kids that might break them? I don’t think so! In addition to that the staff members are pretty much just there collecting a paycheck. They don’t help you and they have a very rude grumpy demeanor. In addition to this their prices for frames are WAY overpriced. The Coach lenses are $250 a pop, go to target optical and they’re $50 less. Their selection is also just not that great to be honest. They keep the cheaper lenses on a little turning rack in the back and it just looks bad. I won’t be back here to purchase glasses and I will very likely go elsewhere for our eye exams because I don’t want to have to “shop around” after getting a prescription.
Dr. Solinsky has been my ophthalmologist since he began his practice in West Hartford in the early 1990's. . I am impressed with his care and kindness to me, the up to date equipment that has made diagnosis easier over the years, and the professionalism of the auxiliary staff and the administrative staff. I also like the fact that Dr. Solinsky shares the newest information regarding options with me. He certainly stays up to date with his education and diagnostic services. I also like that he chooses his other professionals to complement the expert service he gives his patients. When I have my appointment I have confidence in whoever he selects to do my tests before he sees me.
Dr. Solinsky and West Hartford staff provide excellent care. They patiently address all your questions/concerns and are very thorough. Very happy with their service and high level of expertise. I highly recommend!
I visited the office for the first time today i was in a lot of pain the front staff was great they explained to me that they don’t usually take walk-in but they made an acception in my case I was in and out in no time. I was very pleased with my experience I’ll definitely recommend this office to everyone! Thanks again for everything!
If you Need cataract surgery don't bother going to solinsky if you're on Medicare because they will tell you laser surgery is not covered and you'll need to pay a couple thousand dollars out of your own pocket. The truth is Medicare will cover the surgery, but Solinski doesn't accept the Medicare approved charge for laser surgery. Go to another doctor. Most will accept Medicare approved payment.
I came to the office for a follow up to cataract surgery. Everyone was pleasant and professional and Dr. Solinsky was wonderful!!
Very experienced, provide a great range of services, and very friendly. Also, front desk very efficient. I highly recommend Solinsky EyeCsre.
My Grandma went to have her cataract removed feb 7th 2019 and they treated her very well.
The care provided me and careful planning by all the staff led to a great cataract surgery outcome for me. I highly recommend this practice.
Extremely happy with my son's eye care we received here. Dr. Lee has been pleasant, skilled and knowledgeable . My son is 3 yrs old and shy, but loves to go see dr. Lee. We appreciate that he made our son feel comfortable at all his appointments but especially on surgery day. Will continue to use Solinsky eye for all my children.
Really kind people...
Very professional, operation in Enfield my waiting time was much quicker than I expected , and I received good news to boot ! Thanks Dr. Wang!
Went for regular checkup with my eye insurance. they billed both my eye insurance and health insurance and denying they did not bill eyemed. Beware! Its been month still it is not resolved.
the staff was very caring.
Good group.
I don't think that they even deserve one star, to be honest. I will never go back to this place. For starters, when I went in for my exam, the doctor spent barely any time with me. She gave me my script and I picked out a pair of glasses for myself. Just so you know, I've had glasses for 17 years. I know how my eye adjust. When my glasses came in, I tried them on and instantly I knew something was different. I told them that the glasses were giving me a headache and things seemed blurry on the sides. They told me it was because it was a new prescription. I knew it wasn't. A few days later, it was still happening. My eyes had adjusted a little, but every time I put these glasses on, I feel my eyes straining to adjust. Then, I got contacts. Same thing was happening. Then, two days later, my right eye began to burn when using them. I went back in for a new pair and told them that I was experiencing burning in my right eye. I was told that the contact was probably dirty. I told them I couldn't keep my eye open and needed to take it out. They gave me a new pair of the same contact brand and again instant burning in my eye. I couldn't keep my eye open. I told the doctor and she told me to clean the contact. I did. It felt a little better, but it was still burning. I told the doctor this and she had me leave with those contacts. A few days later, I puts the contacts in my eye and again, the right contact was burning so badly that I couldn't keep my eyes open. I took out the contact and it had ripped in half, in my eye. I called to tell them, in a nice and respectful manner no less, and I was hung up on. A few days later I got a phone call from them about my contacts. I told them I won't be coming back. They are by far the worst service I have experienced and I wouldn't trust the abilities. I went to them because my insurance didn't cover my old eye doctor. It only covers a few eye doctors and they are supposed to be the best out of our Trinity Health options. I will not be going back to them. If you're looking for a new eye doctor, I suggest going to my old eye doctor. His name is Dr. Thomas Misiewicz. He is a great doctor and the staff is wonderful. I most certainly will be going back to him now. I will gladly pay out of pocket to know I'm getting the best care that I can!
They make you feel comfortable
