LORIE G. review for Global Retina Institute

LORIE G. on Birdeye

Global Retina Institute provided the most thorough medical analysis that I have ever received. From the moment I walked through the front door I was afforded individual attention. Before any procedure or test was done an explanation was provided. Laura gently guided me through various tests, gathered information and built a great trust in the clinic and Dr. Ross. When I met Dr. Ross, i was calm,informed and ready for the procedure I had come for. Dr. Ross built on the atmosphere that Laura had initiated. Exhibiting an awesome demeanor with me as her patient, Dr. Rossproceeded to explain and inform with great stories, pictures, models and analogies. By the time I had the procedure, either Laura or Dr. Ross had been by my side for over two hours of patient care and undivided attention. The two procedures that I had, within their beautifully appointed office, were highly successful and my vision is now clear. I can't thank Dr. Ross, Laura, Robin and Jordan enough for making my experience at Global Retina Institute a very positive adventure. Dr. Ross is an awesome health provider and a first rate humanitarian. This medical office is an example of how all should function, treating patients with dignity and respect.

Thanks to all the staff. Everyone was so informative every step .Doc. was awesome in all her explanations for my eye problems. I was very nervous about having my laser procedures done. Everyone was so great through the whole thing. All my worries I had were for nothing. The procedure was very fast and painless. It was so quick and it was done before I knew it. Again I can’t thank everyone enough for being so awesome.

Dr. Ross, Robin, Laura & Jordan are wonderful and have created a very welcoming environment! I was referred to Dr. Ross for Yag laser treatment, presenting with large Weiss rings in both eyes. I have been suffering with anxiety and depression and the inability to drive for the last two years. I really had no idea my ocular health was linked to my mental health. Dr. Ross relayed some information on past patients and conveyed that indeed my floaters could be contributing to the anxiety. I did research, found peer reviewed articles that expressed the same information, patients with Weiss rings had a greater propensity to anxiety, stress and depression. I decided to move forward with the treatment (October 18th was the first treatment) and am now on my third treatment. My case probably doesn't represent the average Weiss ring or the average amount of treatments, they are unusually large! After my first treatment, there was greater clarity, my second treatment I was able to drive with no anxiety (50% increased visual acuity) and after my third treatment, I can drive at night and my social anxiety has drastically decreased! Dr. Ross is an astounding, dedicated retina specialist that you can trust. The procedures do not cause pain, it is an adjustment that might be challenging if you have anxiety, but there is respect & consideration from the staff and you will be fine! I highly recommend trusting Dr. Ross to bring about greater ocular health, you're worth it!!

I am forever grateful to Dr. Ross for her expertise, dedication and the truly authentic care she gave me!! I am also thankful for her medical team Robin & Laura and receptionist, Jordan, for sharing in the same values as Dr. Ross! I received the most amazing care from all of them the minute I walked into the office AND with each follow up visit. Dr. Ross is a one of a kind ophthalmologist; she goes above and beyond! She takes whatever time is needed to listen compassionately, diagnose the condition and thoroughly explain the diagnosis and treatment. The technology and equipment she (and her team) use is incredible! She showed me the instant photos and scans on a large screen. This really helped me, and my husband, understand what was occurring with my eye. Since I have allergic reactions to some eye drops, Dr. Ross and her team contacted a compounding pharmacy and requested specialized eye drops prior to my surgery. Dr. Ross' extensive knowledge, background and kindness, (etc. etc. etc.), put me at ease before the surgery. The most positive medical experience I have ever had!! I'm so fortunate to have found Dr. Ross and her team. They deserve the praise!!! God bless them for what they do, AND for their efforts to reduce global blindness and bring accessible eye care to developing countries around the world. Remarkable!!!!!!

Dr. Ross is a tremendous retinal surgeon. From the moment you contact the office and converse with the staff you realize this is a professional medical office unlike any other. Dr. Ross exudes professionalism, intelligence and compassion. This office respects your time and their office is immaculate with state of the art equipment. Her skills and diagnostic ability is unsurpassed. She is able to communicate clearly, confidently and she will answer your questions. Her ability to educate and visually project your retinal photos and scans on a large TV monitor allows any patient to understand his or her retinal disease. She then conveys the proper course of treatment for your ocular condition. She repaired a horseshoe tear in my left eye and a retinal hole in my right eye with a navigated laser. Due to bilateral vitreous detachments I was left with a Weiss Ring floater in both eyes (a dense obnoxious round floater). Because Dr. Ross is a floater specialist she informed me during a consultation that my floaters with within safe treatable areas and she could treat them with a laser. If you have been diagnosed with a Weiss ring or dense floater by your eye care professional, I urge you to visit her. If treatable she can significantly reduce the size and density of your floater within 30 minutes with a laser and it is painless. The technology is truly amazing and she has the skills and experience to assure a safe treatment. Very few clinics perform this procedure because this laser is very expensive. It is obvious that her goal is to provide all patients with the best care, technology and equipment available. Not all floaters can be treated but urge you to call their office if floaters are reducing your quality of life like mine did. My vision is now wonderful. Without her excellent diagnostic abilities I would have had significant visual impairment if not for her excellent surgical competency. I will be eternally grateful to Dr. Ross and the Global Retinal team (Laura, Robin & Jordan). I would recommend Dr. Ross to anyone in need of a retinal consultation, surgery and or laser vitreolysis (laser floater treatment). Sincerely, Dr O’Daniel
