NVISION Eye Centers

Dr. Tooma was fantastic! Everyone that I encountered from day one when I walked into the Newport office was extremely nice, friendly, & helpful. I finally decided to do the lasik after many many years & after considering other doctors, I didn’t have to hesitate with Dr Tooma. His reputation spoke for itself! I finally see beautifully without contacts. Thank you Nvision Eye Center!

Dr. Tooma is AWESOME!!! He has been taking care of my vision for many years, and he is the BEST! He truly cares about his patients, and has managed his staff to be the same. What a wonderful feeling it is to know you have the most-​skilled Opthamologist with a professional caring supportive team behind him. Definitely a five star review! Thank you Dr. Tooma!

The doctor who did my surgery passed away and his practice was taken over by this group. They did not bother to keep patient records. They did keep my name and personal info in their computer but not my medical records. What happens with patients like me who really need their records? If they were not required to keep patient records, then I should have been informed and at the very least they should have offered them to me. Not cool.
UPDATE March 2, 2016
Thank you Kevin for your response and offer to help. I emailed per your request but never received a reply. We are talking about patients VISION. To not save records is unconscionable. I understand that you took over the practice after the original doctor passed away, but how could you not keep patient records? Again, it’s patients eyesight. I’m having surgery on March 8^th and my current doctor felt it was imperative he have my records. Again, I ask, how could you not keep a patients records or at least return them to the patient?

Dr Prnazar gets a ZERO rating. I would urge anyone who is looking for honesty and integrity to look elsewhere.
As the center pushed for all the bells and whistles for the surgery i was promised that all of my $ 3,100 out of pocket would be everything due. Turns out it was not. They want additional money. As I have politely asked to get this resolved I am getting the classic beauracratic shuffle.
From the Doctor to the surgery center back to the doctor. At the very least I was misled and this is quite disappointing.
Unfortunately, my trust in this Doctor and his very words to me personally that the money paid was all in turned out not to be true.

The wait time here is absolutely ridiculous. They may be good at what they do but they aren’t good at scheduling! After having to bring my elderly uncle, a wait of well over one hour just to be taken back, not even to be seen by the doctor is unacceptable. Also, when I told the staff about it, they didn’t seem to care. It’s like you are a number, not a person, and the more they can get through the wheel, the more money they can make. There is no empathy for the elderly.

I brought my 86 year old father to center for cataract surgery. The office staff was nice and organized. The pre-​op staff caused my discomfort. When I turned my father over to the staff she told him to leave his hearing aid with me. We both explained that he will not be able to hear. She led him into the pre-​op area and I was called back within five minutes to give my Dad’s hearing aid back and help with communication. In the mean time the RN came in not friendly and began looking for a vein in my Dad’s hand. She collapsed it, had to start over, left my Dad with his hand bleeding all over the bed to get another needle to restart process. Common sense is to hold pressure. I am sure a big bruise is left behind. I really wanted to jump all over the RN but knew it was not going to help the situation. She may have been having a bad day but a professional should explain what is going on. The surgery seems to have gone fine. Time will tell after my Dad heals. Really tired of healthcare professionals that do not show the elderly dignity.

Dr Brar did my mom’s cataract surgery and we could not be happier. Staff was great. Dr Rude was great. My mom has one eye corrected for reading and the other for driving so she is super happy to be pretty much glasses free. Cracks me up how she is noticing things all of a sudden that were there for a long time. Guess she just could not see them. She had the laser surgery so she bounced back faster.
My dad will be coming in for cataract surgery in a couple of months.

Awesome Dr. I had cataract and Lasik and he is the best. I can see perfect now and he is a very compassionate Dr. and is very professional and love his work ethic. Love my eyesight and couldn’t ask for more.

Love Dr Pirnazar! He’s very kind and takes his time explaining things. And the staff is excellent!
