the Price of an Opthamologist

I went to an Opthamologist because I was having horrible eye pain. I was unable to wear my contacts. I thought at first that I had torn my contact. I looked at it and it was fine so I thought that I'd switch them out. This did not alleviate the pain. I made an appointment and went to see the eye doctor. He told me that I had an infection in my cornea and prescribed me some eye drops.

The doctor and his staff very professional. They were not to overly friendly, but they did do a correct diagnosis with a treatment that worked. He had asked that I come back for a check up. He charged for the first check up. He wanted to schedule a second recheck and I explained to him how I didn't have insurance and it was costing me about 150 bucks for him to look at my eye and say "ok looks good, keep using the drops." So he let me come back and not have to pay.

Make sure that you have done your research on the doctor. If you have questions or concerns with their procedures don't hesitate to ask. That is why they get paid.
