This is a review for Dr. Timothy J. Kietzman. I woke up very early this morning with a frightening eye issue, which turned out to be a subconjunctival hemorrhage (looks like blood pooling in the whites of the eye). Since it was 5:30am, no eye doctors were open yet and the emergency rooms I called didnt have opthamologists there. So I called the Wheaton Eyecare Clinics emergency line, left a message, and shortly afterward Dr. Kietzman called me back. He took a lot of time asking questions, talking me through it, and let my husband send him text images of my eye -- he was able to identify the issue quickly and was very reassuring that this was common and not an emergency (which it wasnt). It was a huge relief that it could wait until I could get an available appointment just to check that I didnt have debris or anything in there (for peace of mind). I highly recommend him. Thank you, Dr. Kietzman!

Awful! The staff is not polite or patient. They tried to measure my daughters eyes three times. The first time the machine cut off. The second time the technician gave up and went to get the doctor. The third time the doctor spent 30 seconds trying to measure her eyes before she stopped. She barely spent any time with her. She did my exam and prescribed glasses. I asked the technician if there was anything in the price range that my insurance allowed. She stated that there wasnt. The doctor informed me that there was a cabinet full of frames in my price range. When I went to pick them up today I told the technician, who was busy eating at the front desk, that the frames didnt fit. She adjusted them I stated again that they didnt fit. She told me they were fine and I could come back later if they really needed to be adjusted. I will never be going back to this office!

Dr. Zhang is wonderful! She was SO patient and took so much time working out a rather complicated contact lens prescription for me that allowed my middle aged (and very nearsighted) eyes to see both at a distance AND up close. I threw my reading glasses away! She also did a very thorough and thoughtful examination of my young daughters eyes when she was having trouble focusing. An excellent doctor, obviously committed to her work.
