Great with kids
Dr Paluska was thorough and explained to me why my daughter needed glasses in a way that I could understand. My daughter was quite nervous but Dr. Paluska was great with her and made her giggle and relax. :)

I always feel welcome at your office. All the staff is very knowledgeable.
I had a pretty severe sinus infection that involved one eye. At my family doctor’s request I was able to be seen by Dr. Paluska within 24 hours.
From entrance to exit I was treated with respect.
In the past I was not too pleased with the wait time at this facility but this latest visit really opened my eyes! I had to have a variety of tests done that required me to go to three various rooms and two waiting rooms. I thought about the logistics involved in how many people need this test or that test and the craziness of multiple doctors and services being offered and realized that they really have A LOT going on!! I think the thing that helped most this time was that I was constantly assured someone would be with me shortly or that I would be next for this testing room or that there was one patient ahead of me. In the past I would have been left in a room for up to 40 minutes. Being checked on and told what was happening made all the difference in the world! Please keep providing this kind of helpful customer service as it makes waiting a lot easier! Thank you for opening my eyes!?
This office is top notch from the second you enter the door, to the minute you leave. The front office staff greet you warmly. Dr. Stice and team are courteous, professional, knowledgable, patient, and friendly. The selection of glasses is huge and you are sure to find something that looks and feels great. The optical staff are miracle workers in getting your glasses to fit perfectly. Look no further for eyecare that will meet all your needs.
I was seen by a doctor that could fit me in for an eye infection. He was new to me.I wasn’t impressed and he seemed arrogant.my regular doctor is wonderful.
Sales reps should not be allowed to use the parking lot. Employees should.!!!
Bi annual eye check up. Easy check in and reasonable time for completing entire check up.
See above
I was promptly checked in for my appointment and very little waiting to be seen. Everyone was courteous and questions answered. I was very pleased.
The woman who did the first work was wonderful. She was comprehensive, careful, and instructive, as well as very personable. Dr. Stice is always great.
Dr. Bob was, as usual, extremely professional, friendly and efficient. All of the staff were equally friendly and professional. Never a bad experience!!
All is going as planned. Right eye is still blurry.
My vision care with Dr. Paluska is always professional and personable. He is an excellent doctor.
Eye Care Physicians was very accommodating in providing an appointment to me over an eye event I experienced suddenly. Staff was kind and professional. Doctor’s examination was thorough and reassuring to me. Thank you Eye Care Physicians for your timely assistance to me...I greatly appreciated your patient care!
I recently had cataract surgery on both eyes. I am 72. I was extremely happy with the quality and thoroughness of the process, service, staff & treatment. All parts of the process were well explained to me. Everyone was very courteous, friendly, kind and professional. I am disabled and they had a wheel chair available when I felt I needed it. Before surgery, you are given a zippered bag with eye-drops, an eye shield/tape, sunglasses, and eye wipes. You are also given specific written instructions for pre-/post surgery and a checklist for recording the eye drops as you take them. For a few days pre-surgery , you use the eye wipes and eye drops. You discuss with the doctor your choice of lens replacement needed depending on your needs. Post-surgery you wear the sunglasses until you eye is no longer dilated. You wear the plastic eye shield for one week (taped on -- though I used a head band to hold ). Dr. Stice was my surgeon and was excellent. I felt very comfortable with him performing the surgery. I WAS fearful BEFORE the first eye was done -- as would anyone be, since "eye surgery" sounds scary. But the nurses, anesthetist and doctor were nice, thorough, helpful and explained and answered all my questions. You arrive for surgery one hour ahead of the scheduled surgery time. There is a short wait ...with your status in line displayed on a television monitor in the waiting room. Then you go in for pre-surgery to get your eyes dilated and desensitized. They also go over your health and prescription history. An IV is placed in your wrist area so that you can still easily move your hand/arm easily. The IV is so a 'calming' agent can be given. You remain awake during surgery but there is no pain and you are relaxed The surgery only takes 15-20 minutes and then you are returned to the post-op area. In a few minutes you are done. You must have someone drive you after surgery and for 24 hours because of the 'calming agent' which can take that long to leave your system. You see the doctor the next day for a post-op exam and you begin a four-week course of eye drops in that eye. The drops number/frequency diminish each week. There is the option to take 3 different drops or one combined drop. In my opinion, the combination is the better choice as 1) it is cheaper and 2) it's a lot simpler to take the drops, too -- especially after you have the 2nd eye done and each eye is getting its own separate drops. The first night my eye was a bit 'ache-y' kind of behind the eyeball but other than that, no discomfort (you can take ibuprofen). For a week you should not life more than 20 lb. nor do any prolonged 'bent-over' activities like gardening, though you can bend over to tie your shoes, etc. Perhaps the process/instructions would be different for other people based on health or eye condition, but this is what I experienced. Once my eyes were no longer dilated, I could immediately see more clearly for TV and driving (no more glasses needed) and colors appeared brighter. My very close vision was improved but I'll still need readers I think (don't see follow up doctor re: this for a few more days yet). I am VERY glad that I had these cataracts taken care of. Good Luck!
I have been treated by Dr. Stice for several years. While I find him to be a very competent physician, I am increasingly alarmed by the amount of time I have to spend in the waiting area...on the average 2 hours. I am a professional in private practice, if I kept clients waiting that long I wouldn't have a practice. My time is valuable too and when I have to budget 4 hours in order to be sure that I am seen and helped, I lose valuable time. I will likely be looking for another clinic in the near future unless this changes.
Never wait long in the waiting room. Everyone at the office is friendly and professional. Been seeing the same doctor yearly for 8 years.
