Dr London didn’t explain any risks or cons of having surgeries, he didn’t explain anything at all prior to the invasive surgeries. You have to try to figure out all the exact questions to ask and there’s almost no way of knowing exactly all the cons and bad things that can happen if you proceed without him looking out for you the patient in this regard. My vision cuts out now and is blurry and the original problem that the surgeries was supposed to fix is worse, overall my quality of life is much worse after the surgeries he... read more
Worthless and damaging surgery. Does NOT tell you about all the cons ahead of time.
This place is a waste of time, a bunch of appointments where you wait on average 2-3 hours for about a 3-5 minute appointment where you learn nothing.
After two unsuccessful core vitrectomies I wouldn’t recommend this procedure for anymore, I still have floaters and now I see them in my central vision in artificial light not just natural light.

I asked about chronic bloodshot eyes, said it wasn’t his domain. He should ... read more
Business response:
Thank you for sharing your experience. I understand how scheduling challenges, unexpected dilation, and record access issues could be frustrating, and I am sorry parts of your visit felt unclear.

I agree that expectations around dilation and records should be explained more clearly, and I appreciate your feedback.
Would not recommend
