I have never had such an unpleasant experience with a doctor before. I asked her a question twice as I was still confused. She replied me condescendingly that she had already told me twice. The way she talked to me was harsh during the visit. The exam was painful too. I was so uncomfortable with her and so afraid to have her do a retina laser on me. After talking to few friends and did some research, I ended up finding another doctor who is a retina specialist in Viera. I was treated with much more care and comfort. I wish m... read more

HERSHBERGER SHOULD BE FIRED. SHE IS AN INSULT TO THE DEPARTMENT OF OPTHAMOLOGY. RUDE, CRUDE, HATEFUL, NOT ENOUGH ADJECTIVES TO DISCRIBE THIS WOMAN. FIND ANOTHER RETINA SPECIALIST PLEASE FOR YOUR SAKE. GO TO VIERA. ONE THERE IS AWESOME. HE ALSO HAS OFFICES IN MERRIT ISLAND.

I wish I had seen these reviews before my visit (based on a referral) as my experience absolutely bears them out. I waited an hour and half past my appointment time which was frustrating in itself. I only saw Dr. Hershberger for a few moments but in that time she delivered a difficult diagnosis that I was not prepared for. There was absolutely no compassion, education, or care in her manner. I don’t know whether to blame her or the absolutely harried working environment that seems to prevail at this office. I left with a lot... read more

Unsatisfactory! Unprepared for my appointment, did not have prior records available for guidance regarding progression of problem, arrogantly abusive, argumentative. Hershberger walked out of exam in mid-exam to take a telephone call. Upon her return I requested information about my problem and she became argumentative. I told the doctor "You're Fired", and left the office. Will not see her again. Will not use Melbourne Eye Associates any longer.

My optometrist sent me to her after he did an OCT scan and found macular pucker. She never made eye contact with me, was condescending ("Can you explain your poor vision in the left eye this morning?"; "Here's a grid. Look at it tomorrow. There are the directions. I hope you're a person who reads and follows directions. If not, it's useless."), and clearly had no time for me. She confirmed the macular pucker by looking at the OCT images, did a quick exam, said it could only be fixed by surgery, and said to come back in 4 mon... read more

Not helpful all. I had extreme floaters in one eye that completely blocked my vision. She waived me off and said that there was nothing that her office was willing to do. I was too high risk and she did not provide me with any alternatives. I went to another surgeon out of town and when I returned to her for follow up, she was rude, disrespectful, and made any post op issues sound like they were all my fault. She may be a good doctor, but her bedside manner and lack of compassion for the patient as a person is horrible.

Horrible doctor. Left me with a detached retina for days. If you want to be blind go to this doctor.

Horrible, Because of Her diagnosis she left me unattended for over a month with a detached retina. Only see her if you never want to see again.

Dr Hershberger was extremely rude and lack of compassion. She burned my cornea during photocoagulaion lazar procedure. It was the most intense burning i had ever felt. When seeking out someone new i then discovered i should have never felt such pain and burning. I have perminate damage to my cornea. Unable to see through the scaring she caused.
