I am a great fan of Chelsea Eye Ophthalmology! I was referred by a friend who had gotten LASIK a few months ago and had a great experience, and I have to wholeheartedly agree with her. Dr. Coad was completely professional and personable. He went through the entire procedure and was a very reassuring presence. Special shout out to Elizabeth Simeone, the LASIK coordinator. She was amazing. Just amazing. She went above and beyond. Her knowledge of LASIK was more than evident from the second I walked into the consult. She was a ... read more

Aj, thank you so much, for such a great review! Dr. Coad and I are so happy we were both able to provide you with an amazing LASIK experience. We are looking forward to meeting with you at your 1-month Post-op!

I had LASIK surgery by Dr. Coad at Chelsea Eye Ophthalmology a little over a month ago and was waiting to see how things went before leaving this review. Happy to report I now have 20/15 vision in both eyes (that's better than 20/20). Overall, I had a great experience! Let me start by saying I am a super anxious person, and I am so disgusted by eyes (and the thought of touching them) that I've never worn contacts. I am the kind of person that would (and did) obsessively Google LASIK complications for hours before finally pul... read more

I checked out a couple of other Manhattan doctors before finding Dr. Coad and his awesome assistant Elizabeth. I had debated for years about whether or not to have LASIK but wanted to find the right practice to carry it out. These guys were amazing, attentive, instructive, reassuring all the way through - and the result is awesome. They made it so easy, zapped at 8 pm, follow-up the next morning and straight back to the office. I should have done it years ago and could not recommend these guys highly enough. I'm a very selec... read more

Just completed my one month post surgery check up at Chelsea Eye Ophthalmology and happy to report that I have 20/20 vision. I am so satisfied with my results and I want to thank Elizabeth Simeone, the LASIK Coordinator, and of course Dr. Coad. From my very first appointment ,to see if I was eligible for the LASIK procedure with an astigmatism in one eye and poor vision in both, Elizabeth was great. She guided me through the process explaining what to expect. She even had the procedure herself so who better to explain the be... read more

I went to a consultation with Dr Coad and I felt very comfortable getting the surgery done with him. I had a second consultation already scheduled at another Lasik Center and they said I was not a candidate. Dr Coad called me personally to make sure I was comfortable that we were doing the right surgery and offered to do additional tests. He also had no problem with me getting a third opinion. I feel very comfortable knowing that Dr Coad was right and I look forward to my surgery. 

Business response:

Thank you for the review Louis! At Chelsea Eye Ophthalmology, we like our patients to get as much information as possible so that they can make the best decision when it comes to their vision. Dr. Coad appreciates the kind words!
