Did my required eye exam and explained all - thank You!

I did first surgery its was a good job everything was good. And he did a second one its went well.

Dr. Straut and his staff are far superior to other medical practices in this area - not just for ophthalmologists but other medical care as well. The wait was short, and the attention from Dr. Straut was friendly and knowledgeable. I appreciate his attention.

I would recommend this excellent caring doctor. Dr. Darlington takes time to listen to my questions and gives me very quick straight answers. I truly appreciate him and all of his caring staff, particularly the staff in Merritt Island.

He gave me detailed descriptions of my eye health. And gave me descriptions of what to expect of cataract forming in one of my eyes.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my initial experience at this practice warrants honest feedback. I saw Dr. Darlington on my first visit and to be honest……. what I experienced was a very poor bedside manner—dismissive, rushed, and lacking in basic patient communication. The interaction felt cold and unprofessional, and I did not feel that my concerns were heard or taken seriously. I also observed this similar behavior directed toward the staff as I was checking out. This negative energy wasn’t personal after-all, I guess that is just who he is but it contributed to an overall negative environment. I returned the following day and had a profoundly different experience! I saw Dr. Straut and it felt like I was at a completely different practice. The overall difference from the staff and environment in general was striking. My second visit was everything a medical experience should be—attentive, respectful, and patient-focused. Dr. Straut took the time to listen, explain, and ensure I felt comfortable with my care. It is concerning that such a significant gap in care exists within the same practice. Patients should be able to expect a consistent standard of professionalism regardless of which provider they see so if planning a visit, my advice would be to request Dr. Straut.

Dr. Straut is always very personable and professional and I feel well cared for.

Another enjoyable day visiting the eye clinic

I had testing done which was done quickly, but it was a very long wait to see the doctor.

I can SEE again (20/20) with my "new" Left Eye! Cataract and Cornea Surgery by The Best Eye Surgeon, Dr. Darlington & Staff. Thank you all! Now, for the Right eye.

He is thorough and treat you like his family

I have been a patient for 5 years and Dr. straut is always detailed, explains things so they make sense and provides options for care when needed. My only complaint is not with the care or the Dr., but there is usually a significant wait time, so plan that into your busy schedule. I would recommend Dr. straut for anyone looking for general eye care, plus they have specialist that are in the same group which makes those more complicated eye problems easier to schedule within the same practice.

Entire experience was great from the check-in to the techs and nurse to the Dr.

Staff is friendly and very pleasant Dr Darlington is great. I really like that he explains everything and gets right to the point

Great Doctor

Dr. Straut is very easy to talk to. He takes his time and I never feel rushed. I highly recommend him.

Dr. Straut is always thorough and does not rush through the appointment and he always answers my questions.

Good

Great staff and through exam.Doctor explained in detail. Very. Pleased

Dr. Mandese is the consumate professional, he is an excellent diagnostician and clinician. He not only provides wonderful medical treatment, but is also very caring and considerate of his patients needs and goes above and beyond the norm to treat you medically and care for you personally, with compassion and a high degree of skill and expertise. Dr. Mandese has a great support staff as well, which working together with him, brings an excellent all around experience to his patients. Dr. Mandese is a blessing in my life and I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs care from an excellent Eye Doctor. God Bless, Janice Strickland

Dr. Mandese is thorough and knowledgeable. He is friendly and professional.

Quick, efficient, knowledgeable, helpful and personable.

Good job

Was a pleasure having my eyes operated on for cataracts and implant lenses in my eyes.

For how crazy busy Dr. Darlington is, he seemed to give me his attention and didn't make me feel hurried. He answered any questions I had until I didn't have any more questions. Just a heads up, at the Melbourne office, when he is there, the parking is quite a challenge.

Dr. Darlington did a great job on my cataract. Him and his staff were very professional and courteous. He did an exceptional service and I am grateful he was referred to me.

Front desk staff very helpful and personable. Technician was also great. Dr. Straut did a thorough exam, explained everything well and answered all of my questions. I will go back and highly recommend him and their office.

The surgery did not work. It damaged my eye.The vision in my left eye is blurry with "floaters". I cannot read with my left eye. It is too blurry. My eye is much more sensitive to light now. Sudden bright light makes it more blurry. The surgery was supposed to to make my eye less sensitive to light so I could drive at night! It is worse now when I ride at night when my wife drives. I am afraid to drive at all! Also, I also sometimes get bright light flashes on the left edge of my eye. Dr.Darlington told me he had put in the wrong lense! He told me it happens sometimes! He said he needed to do another operation to put in another lense! And that he had to do it within 3 months or it would be too "healed"! He also warned me that not all doctors knew how to do it correctly! After what he did! What am I supposed to do now? My quality of life is greatly affected! Do you honestly think I'm going to let him do another surgery?

Caring team

Staff efficient n knowledgeable. Dr explains as he gives care. I’ve been a patient at Atlantic Eye since way before it changed its name.

Very professional care

Dr. Darlington is the first class glaucoma doctor he saved both of my visions and a first class surgeon. You could not ask for a better doctor than Dr. Darlington. Thanks for saving my eyes or eye John shoulder.

The office staff is friendly and professional. I love that they're not too busy to see you in an emergency situation. I feel that they are really concerned about my health.

I recommend Dr. Darlington when my friends ask me who they should see about their cataracts all the time.

After all tests were finished, still had to wait 45 minutes to see doctor for result. Made for tiring afternoon.

Dr. Darlington is very professional and efficient. He explained everything in very detailed. I highly recommend his practice.

Dr. Darlington is an excellent physician. I would highly recommend him. The office staff is very competent and helpful.The title of his medical practice is: Atlantic Eye Consultants.

Prompt and efficient. All steps explained and staff is friendly and helpful. The Doc is the ultimate professional - smart, specific, and explains options.

.

from the time you walk in the front door and leave, you’re met with professional courteous experts in their field. highly recommend this office and Dr. Darlington.

I always find the office staff and Dr. Straut very efficient, friendly, and efficient. I would recommend Dr. Straut to anyone who wants to have a great experience.

Dr. Straut makes me feel at ease and gives me excellent advice about my eyesight. Recommend him highly to my family and friends.

I was concerned about my left eye seeing blurry, after having cataract surgery over a year ago. After going through a series of tests, I was happy to learn it is lens cloudiness. Dr Straut assured me all looked good and not to be concerned unless it bothered me. So relieved with the outcome. Thank you for taking the time to answer all my concerns.

Excellent, Trusted Service!

Reasonable wait time, and then I saw two associates and the doctor. The entire appointment took less than an hour including the wait time for my eyes to fully dilate. Very pleased with the Doctor and all the associates.

Okay

Excellent Dr , very knowledgeable and informative

Great first experience with Dr. Jason Darlington. Got answers to questions I could not receive from my previous Doctor.

Had an eye emergency. Was seen same day and actually was in and out faster than my normal appointments. Appreciate the care

Everything went well with the pre-op. Have not had surgery yet

Wait time is way too long!!!

My experience with the exam was very positive. Dr Strout was very encouraging. I had a stroke which compromises my vision. He assured me that my new glasses will help a lot in working around my loss. I needed that assurance. In a situation like this, you need encouragement.

I had cataract surgery on both eyes. I had absolutely no issues after surgery. I wish I'd had the surgery sooner. I can see without glasses for the first-time in years. I highly recommend Dr. Darlington for your eye care at Atlantic Eye Consultants.

Parking in the middle of the day is horrible and waiting an hour and 15 minutes for a scheduled appointment is disappointing. But, we value Dr darlington's care and made our appointment for early in the day on a Monday.

All good

Always a very professional experience. Everyone there is friendly and answers all my questions. Highly recommend this place.

Overall our experience was very good. Dr. Mandese and staff are very patient and make you feel comfortable.

I was very impressed with this facility and the providers; they addressed all my questions and concerns. . I will be returning to them for my next eye exam as long as I am in the area by next year.

The best care ever.

The staff and Dr. Straut are all wonderful!

Dr Mandese was fantastic. I appreciate the time he spent with me and especially the time he spent answering all of my questions. I left feeling very comfortable going forward with my treatment. His office staff were also great with how they treated me and making my visit comfortable

Very professional everyone made you feel comfortable

A very personable Dr. Always takes his time with you at your office visit, After a thorough eye exam, Dr Straut gives you a detailed summary of his findings. Highly recommend!

I had cataract surgery and was very impressed with how my surgeries went. Support staff and nurses were very cordial and thoughtful. The twilight anesthesia worked real well, went from remembering getting prepped to your wife is here to take you home.

Fixes dry eyes regularly I'm happy with his work.

Exam was very thorough and all my questions concerning the exam were thoroughly answered.

Excellent and Dr.Straut is a wonderful doctor.

The nurses are very humorous and extremely polite. They were very accepting my anxiety condition and explained everything step by step. Dr. Mandese is top notch and was very quick and thorough in his exam. He gave me some very good answers and asked to watch my case closely due to my condition. Love going place and feel very at ease there

Friendly, informative, timely and professional

Listens well.

Dr Darlington performed surgery to remove cataracts four years ago. I return once a year for followup. Fortunately due to his initial great work, my vision is extremely crisp and sharp both day and night. I’m so pleased.

Very good

Dr Straut is very knowledgeable and never tries to rush you. He will spend time discussing your results

I've been going to Dr. Mandese about five years and he's very thorough . I'm never rushed and he always answers all my questions and concerns. He's a good doctor.

I found Dr. Straut to be very nice, very professional and friendly. He listens and hears you. He is ready, willing, and able to address any concerns you may have. Above all, I trust him and his judgment.

Great place ! Dr. Menendez It’s very professional and actually very concerned about what might be wrong. He seems very intelligent and intuitive about various conditions. Very helpful to me when I was here on vacation and had a possibility of a stroke to get My MRI to evaluate.

He is real!!

Excellent Doctor and Staff. I highly recommend this doctor.

Long wait otherwise a good visit.

extended wait however session with Dr pleasant and inf0rmitive. Thanks|

I have recently completed my cataract surgery on both eyes and can successfully say I agree with Dr. Darlington that I was a perfect candidate for the multi focal lenses I chose. Now no more contacts or glasses! He put my mind at ease through the whole process and is a very skilled doctor who runs a professional, efficient and friendly medical practice and surgery center. I would not hesitate to return.

He checks your eyes, gives you information to improve your eyes, listens to any concerns you might have and answers questions.

Very thorough exam, explained everything to me in detail.

He is a very caring Dr. Also very knowledgeable.

He is SO thorough I feel my eyes are in good hands. His assistants are kind. If there's one drawback it is the wait. One must be patient, bring something to read..have driver drop off and be called if impatient... Worth the wait

Awesome continuing service!

Dr.Mandese is very nice and very knowledgeable.

This is the best my vision has ever been under Dr. Darlington.

What a wonderful person and certainly a professional in his field. I was impressed by doctors knowledge. He made me feel a lot better after seeing him. Staff was wonderful as well. Thank you, everyone

Excellent albeit a bit slow.

Dr Darlingtion and his staff were excellent. Testing was performed to determine id i needed cataract surgery in both of my eyes. Test results were negative. As a result, I made another appointment for scheduled 1 year to check my eyes again for any need for the surgery.

As always very good. Professional friendly and complete. Dr Mandese is the best!

Had cataract surgery. Great care taken from start to finish from every single person who works in the practice. Everything very organized and clear, including my new eyesight.

Clearly explained procedures and medical conditions. Timely visit without a prolonged wait time

Checking in to getting in is way too LONG!

Great eye Doctor

Everyone was very professional. Procedure went well. Thanks to all.

The entire staff is professional and courteous. Always with positive reassurance and answers to all questions. I would highly recommend them.

I disembarked on my last day of the Star Trek Cruise and my right eye became pink and exuded mucus like film. Thankfully, I had 8 hours before my flight so I diligently called every nearby OD, explained my situation, but no one was available for appointments. I'm so grateful Dr. Mandese accommodated my appointment as I can't imagine I would have been able to see anything in another 8 hours. Dr. Mandese and his staff were so helpful and kind and they really supported me in a tough situation. Thank you so much to the Atlantic Eye Associates team!

always has a smile and a calm manor Explains what needs to be done and does not make you feel as if yo are being rushed

The entire staff were professional and showed care and concern.

My experience with Dr. Strout was amazing. Facility was state of the art, very clean and staff was very friendly. The waiting time was minimal from start to finish. I would highly recommend Dr. Strout at Atlantic Eye Consultants. You won’t be disappointed!!!!!

Compassionate,professional.

Very happy that I chose to be seen at this office. Dr Stuart was very thorough and took the time to explain everything. All the staff that worked with him were great. Front desk needs some help. Everyone at front desk appeared very stressed. I’m glad that I chose to go to this office.

Long wait to see. Doctor

Thank you, Dr. Straut! I “appreciate you”! Very much!

Courtesy Doctor , he was more informed than the last time I visited him

Dr is Great. Wait time is crazy

Effective, efficient, courteous, pleasant.

very pleasant experience in office and at the surgical center

The staff and doctors are excellent. Wait time when you have an appointment is a bit lengthy, but well worth the wait for the care provided.

Only problem was the wait. Appointment was at 12 noon, did not get seen until almost 2 pm.

Great practice and the Drs are complimentary tasty to each other in both their specialties and professionally. Dr Strout always takes his time and it is evident he cares about his patients and their health

Dr

Very well!

Dr. Straut is an amazing optometrist, he really has the ability to explain what is happening to your vision/eye in terms you can understand. He uses diagrams and visualizations to clarify your understanding of the situation and what ways you can change it. I have found all of the Staff at all 3 offices (PB, Melbourne and Suntree) to be good natured, friendly and outgoing. They “know their stuff,” can answer questions about procedures and tests and are experts at keeping the office visit procedures moving.

From start to finish my experience was great the staff and Doctor were very professional and helpful I would recommend them to everyone.

Quick and easy to understand. Great service, punctual, patient and took time to explain and answer my questions. Saved me a lot of time. Thank you!!

Fast, efficient, friendly.

He provided me with very details about my vision

I was extremely satisfied everybody I had contact with was very professional and was a pleasure to talk to. It was a great visit. All my concerns were addressed.

Dr Mandese is pleasant, thorough and answers all my questions. I highly recommend him to anyone.

He explained things is you don’t understand some test or what he is doing

Dr. Darlington replaced my corneas ins 2015. Dr Darlington is professional, knowledgeable, and he truly takes the time to listen and explain everything clearly. The eye exam was thorough with many updated/newer testing and I never felt rushed. All of my questions were answered patiently, and I left feeling confident about my eye health and treatment plan. It’s clear that Dr. Darlington genuinely cares about patients and takes pride in providing high-quality care. I highly recommend Dr. Darlington to anyone looking for an attentive, skilled, and compassionate eye doctor.

Dr. Straut is always thorough for my eye exam. He is patient and explains what he is doing and answers any questions. He always ask how you are and what’s happening in your life. He’s kind and cares about his patients! He’s the best!

I am very pleased with Dr Straut’s care and his concerns as to my eye care. I would recommend him to anyone who would like to go to see him.

Excellent!

Doctor MANDESE is great! Also the stuff, is very friendly and helpful! I liked very much!

I have been a patient of Dr. Straught for numerous years. A wonderful Dr and office staff as well. He listens to you and answers your questions so you can fully understand (what's really going on) you're a person not just a number or patient that day. Highly recommend him & Atlantic Eye Group!

Very professional.Still friendly and caring .

Remove eyelashes

Helpful

Everyone was very nice and friendly! Only complaint is the long wait before any testing and between tests.

Very professional well run office. Really like Dr Stroud and the friendly staff

He is very good

Very professional staff

In and out quickly

My procedure was quick, however Dr. Darlington was through and I have the upmost confidence in his professional judgment. Thank you, Dr. Darlington.

Very thorough, friendly and professional!

Very thorough and knowledgeable about eye care. Answered any questions I had regarding eye care. Strongly recommend Dr. Eric Straut for you vision needs

Dr Strout is just so kind helpful and just wonderful And the office staff is great too

Dr Mandese is very compassionate and trustworthy. He and his staff really listen and explain throughly, making me feel comfortable. Can’t say enough!

Prompt professional service

He was truthful about my situation. Gave me guidance on what to do.

Dr Straut was very helpful, answered all questions, took time with me and didn’t rush thru the visit.

Very attentive, answered my questions, made suggestions, etc. Very good experience.

Great eye doctor

Pleasant, caring & thorough

He is a very good eye surgeon and he let you know how the surgery went.

He does a great job at letting me know how my eyes are doing and what will be the next step in my treatment.

My experience was very good,. The staff members at the surgery center are all very efficient and pleasant. They make you as comfortable as possible. The surgery goes quickly. My first eye went very well, but the second was cloudy the day after surgery. Dr Darlington was not alarmed and recommended extra eyedrops, which cleared up the problem. All is well, and I’m glad I had it done.

I had the best experience!!! Everyone was so kind and explained everything in great detail. I highly recommend to everyone!

Excellent, no questions unanswered, detailed explanations, I would highly recommend.

Dr. D is expert at what he does. Very direct and clearly communicated/explained my condition and recommended course of action to me. Just be prepared to wait in office as he is very popular and sought after!

It was good. Everyone is great

I love Dr. Darlington and his staff, from the time I came in contact with him he has been very professional and most of all he takes the time and explain to you what is going on with you.

the staff are efficient with my care.

I had two test and then a visit by the doctor. Apparently all was well. The doctor look at the test results and said he would see me in six months. Fleming Law

It. Was very positive

He Was very Thorough, polite, and friendly and explained the procedures he and his staff ordered for me during the office visit which took about 90 minutes, I would have liked him providing me some written documents about a procedure he recommended in April so I could understand it more clearly with its pros and cons.

The entire staff and proceedure was very well coordinated and professional. Only 2 days since my surgery, I'm very optimistic about the results.

Very professional, knowledgeable.

Fantastic Cataract Specialist! Surgery went well, quickly, and the staff at the surgery center were very compassionate and helpful.

I was an emergency add on due to my ophthalmologist being out of town. I was seen and treated fairly quickly and left feeling heard and that I had received good care. Everyone at this practice was professional and kind. I would recommend this practice to a friend for sure.

Got appointment same day with my symptoms in my eyes, mostly itchy Dr Mandese quickly assessed problem Prescription was forwarded to Publix Relief came within a day or so Eye drops are to be continued Condition to be reviewed at next appointment in one week

Dr Mandese Is an exceptional eye doctor!!! I always recommend him to my friends

Dr Darlington is the amazing. I had cataract-lasik surgery last year and 2 weeks ago he operated on my eyelids. They were drooping so bad they interfered with my peripheral vision. I am well and healing. Best surgical experience I ever had. Not only is DrDarlington outstanding, but Atlantic has the perfect staff. Competent, caring, efficient and friendly. Highly recommend

Good Doctor……. Long wait.

Dr Straut is simply the best.He explains everything in a way that is easy to understand. He is very personable and attentive.

Dr Mandese is a great eye doctor. He has helped me immensely. I highly recommend him.

Wonderful

Sr Straut is totally present, explains well and pits the patient at ease.

It was good

Incredible experience. He's one of the few doctors I've had who actually listens. Also he was not offended when I brought up specific tests and diagnoses as possibilities from my own knowledge and studies. Most doctors have too much ego to allow that. He was thorough and efficient at getting to the cause and treatment. He communicates extremely well and has great bedside manners. His medical staff was very efficient and personable. The front office staff was more than accommodating and nice. I highly recommend Dr Matisse and this clinic. And those who know me realize that I do not give out such recommendations easily.

My appointment was 11:20an. I was there 10 minutes in respect for others time. I was called back at 11:40am for a test. Sent back to the waiting room until 12:10pm and then brought back for another test with drops. I was plopped back in the waiting room again with the other 25 patients waiting in the same doctor until 12:45pm. Finally saw the doctor at 1pm for 3 minutes. Way over scheduled and not one person from the office apologized or updated me. Not a professional office at all.

You have to wait, Dr is always behind schedule. Over 45 min wait. Otherwise great experience

Dr Darlington is professional, caring and thorough.

Always pleased with the care by Dr Mandese. Only complaint is appt times are often a suggestion. Most times it can take up to an hour past your appointment to finally get to see the doctor. Make sure you bring something to pass the time waiting. Only once in the past few years did I see doc within 15 min of my appointment time.

Saw Dr. Mandese yesterday. My eyes have been red for two weeks. I saw my GP and told it was my allergies and the pollen. Dr. Mandese found that i had a viral infection. After using the drops he recommended my eyes are clearer and the blurriness is improving.

Very friendly doctor and staff. Thank you for helping me.

the “wait was long” BUT… “worth it”.. Dr. Darlington was terrific

Very pleasant experience- staff very polite and knowledgeable about the office and how to address the patient and the situation.

Always a great experience. Never feel rushed. Staff is always kind and helpful. Dr. M answers all my questions thoroughly and I feel lucky to have him as my Eye Doc!

Great surgeon, talented and immensely ttliable

Dr Darlington is probably the best eye surgeon in town - at the top of his game. I have sent many of my friends to him for cataracts. He’s the only doctor I would wait over an hour to see. Yeah, he’s that good.

Professional, fast, and friendly.

Thorough exam and personal service

Very nice and thorough. Everyone was very professional and helpful.

Dr Straut was wonderful as always. He answered all my questions. His assistants were very personable and nice. The front desk staff is very kind. They do a great job checking patients in and out. I am very pleased with this practice. Nice job!

I will say that I'm extremely happy with the cataract surgery on my left eye, I now have 20/20 vision in the left eye! I go in for the right eye next week! Dr Darlington was amazing!

The only issue is that the practice was 40 minutes behind.

He is a great doctor. He answers all questions and seems to care. He addresses everything

Dr. S and All staff are great, knowledgeable, skilled and truly interested in the patient!

Long wait times, good staff

Truly exceptional. Well organized, everyone executed quickly and on time. Multiple exams and in and out in 1 hour including Dr visit

The team move me smoothly through my exam explaining each step. They were warm welcoming and put me at ease

Professional and knowledgeable OD who provides individualized care.

Very professional. Communicated in a way.a patient could understand.

Dr Straut is professional and personable. He listens to the patients.

Dr Straut. Has been my doctor for 5 years He is always Friendly and Professional. He also answers all my questions and makes sure I understand what I need to know. His staff is always friendly, helpful and professional. I highly recommend

I came in for a second opinion related to my itching and red eyes. He find out I had an infection and gave me antibiotics! Good job Dr. Thank you!

Like a well oiled machine they work quickly they are friendly results are 5 star

Everyone was very friendly and courteous. The wait was minimum, and the waiting room was not overcrowded. It was a pleasant experience.

My appointment was scheduled for 1:00 pm. I completed a test for peripheral vision and then waited and waited. About 3:30 pm I saw Dr. Darlington. When I was informed that the test did not conclude I needed an eye lift, I learned that Dr. D. was no longer going to be doing that type of surgery. I trust in Dr. Ds work and have been pleased with the implants received several years ago. My frustration is that a previous test confirmed I could get the surgery, the one on Monday past did not corroborate the same results. Three hours to learn I did not qualify this time and then to be scheduled with another Dr. in March is unacceptable.

Very polite and informative staff.

I was seen for my issue within a day. The check-in process was efficient, and everyone was friendly and helpful (good sense of humor too). Dr. Straut was patient, found what was wrong, and efficiently came up with a way to treat my issue. They also have sophisticated diagnostic capabilities such as pressure checking without the annoying puff in your eye (they use light, and I didn't feel a thing). I couldn't be more happy with this visit.

Wonderful bedside manner, felt heard, and he was great at explaining his reasoning behind all actions.

Excellent doctor. Kund and considerate

Staff and everybody included with very professional and courteous and kind!

Was there for 2 hours with 5 min with doctor

The staff at the outpatient facility were superb; attentive, well organized, and knowledgeable. they even called me later in the day to see how I was doing.

Great staff and doctor very pleased with the service

Staff was very friendly

Techs are very nice, doctor could have better bedside manner be more friendly

This is my 3rd procedure with Dr Darlington. He is thorough and professional. His staff is outstanding, efficient and also very professional. And they are all Friendly and Helpful.

Starting with the from desk through to Dr Darlington, I am always treated respectfully, made to feel their time is focused only on me and my concerns. The waiting area is comfortable and roomy. I like the process of collecting information at various stages before seeing Dr Darlington, I like his concern for me, his directness and his willingness to make sure all my questions are answered before I leave.

Ok

Absolutely wonderful people. Very warm & caring. It’s scary when you are visiting & know nothing about the area. My Dr at the Urgent Care clinic highly recommended them & referred me there. I could not have been more pleased. Thank you.

Dr. Straut provides explanations in a clear and articulate manner thus I always feel he has prepared me for anything that needs attention or may in the future His staff is so efficient, knowledgeable and caring that its is obvious that Drl Straut gets involved in their trainingl.

Dr Straut is wonderful. His whole staff was amazing. We highly recommend him.

Courteous, professional and thoroughly explained my surgical options. He answered all my question. All of his staff was also courteous and professional. No easy task as there were many people there waiting to be seen.

You are in Good Hands with Dr. Darlington and Staff. Outstanding! Thank you all!

The oh so patient Dr Darlington and his wonderful nurse, answered All my questions and before and after surgery. I chose the lens that may allow me to not use glasses and could not be more pleased.

Great appointment with Dr. Darlington, he was very attentive and explained the procedure very well.

Pleasant

Dr. Straut LISTENS to your symptoms and provided me with a treatment plan. In two weeks I will see him again to check on the progress. He assured me that there were other treatments available for my eye problem. After numerous appointments with two other doctors, I left with the feeling that I had finally found a doctor who would solve my eye problems.

This was my first time seeing Dr Mandese and he was very professional, the eye exam that he did was very thorough and he explained everything to me and put my mind at ease.

It was the first time to visit Atlantic Eye Consultants. Dr Mandese was very thorough, informative and easy going. I made another appointment for next year.

Dr Jason Darlington is kind and compassionate, very detailed and my experience was very comfortable, I was suffering with so much pain and Dr Darlington was fast and efficient to relieve my pain. I already referred him to my office manager. I work for Dr Aleksander Komar and he called to check on me and said that he was very happy to hear Dr Jason Darlington helped me so quickly with a gentle approach, even fitting me into his extremely busy schedule. I am very grateful for his expertise in his profession. I rate him more than five stars

Dr Darlington is great as are the entire staff. All the testing was very efficient and fast. The technicians are so kind. They made me feel comfortable and not stressed.

Dr. Darlington was great. Explained everything in detail. Staff was nice.

Dr Straut is very professional and helpful to me in my self care

Dr. Darlington is an exceptional doctor. Within minutes of entering the exam room he diagnosed my condition of both eyes (even though my eye doctor missed it). It is worth going to a specialist. My eyes are greatly improved even after a few weeks.

So far I have had the cataract removed from my left eye. I was pretty nervous but I really had nothing to fear. Dr Darlington and his staff are top notch. I have to follow up with Dr Straut this coming week, another doctor I would rate very high. The following week will do the right eye. If you need an eye doctor this is the place to go. Everyone is pleasant, kind and efficient. Thank you and God's blessing to all.

Recently cataract surgery successful. Staff very competent and caring.

Appointment started on time. Dr. Straut is very knowledgeable and explained the results of the diagnostics. Dr. Straut provided potential long term procedures to improve my eyesight that I had never heard of. I am very pleased with Dr. Straut.

Dr. Straut was very friendly and knowledgeable. He listened patiently to my comments ,which was much appreciated!

he may be a good Doctor, but I've had 2 appointments with him and had to wait over 2 hours to see him. My time is valuable also! So, if you don't mind waiting 2 hours I guess he's a good Dr.

Real good!!

Staff is amazing.

Excellent interaction with everyone.

Staff and doctor are pleasant and professional.

The best!!! Dr M is super.

All staff are very nice and Doctor Darlington gave me clear information . Thank you all

With multiple tests the flow and timing went smoothly.

It was excellent except for the delay . My appointment was for 3:30 and I left at 5pm

Best Doctor around for eye movement disorders!! I spent YEARS and thousands of dollars going to every professional and still could not see! What a relief to have Dr. Mandese in Rockledge to give the gift of sight!

On time and Dr M is a genious.

Very thorough exam and follow up discussion!

Follow up was done thoroughly and professionally.

Always happy with the complete office operation!

r

Very knowledgeable staff.

What I expected very professional.

Excellent Dr. Very kind, professional and courteous. Got my surgical procedure scheduled, to be within 3 weeks. Office personnel are so nice and everyone there is so helpful and supportive. I’ve been recommending him to everyone I know for the past 3 years. Just love everyone there ♥️

Always welcoming, seems to care about patient's ongoing care and treatment

A bit of a wait but worth it once the staff sees you.

Dr. Darlington is always right on with his diagnoses and the treatments always work out just fine. Atlantic Eye is a vast improvement over the last group! That guy put the wrong lens in my eye after cataract removal and offered a sketchy solution so I turned to Dr Darlington and have been happy since then.

My eye is doing great and I always tell everyone about Dr. Darlington and how awesome he is. One thing I don’t like is that every time I have an appointment I get there early and I have to wait over an hour or more to be seen. I’m not retired I have a job that I can’t afford to miss 2 hours of work from so that bothers me. Thanks!

Dr Darlington and staff are friendly, caring and thorough in the testing, directions, and information they part. The Doctor went over my test and explained what needed to be done and the next steps to be taken. I trust them with issues I have with my sight.

Dr Mandese is EXCELLENT! I highly recommend him. Very knowledgeable, patience & answers all your concerns w/compassion!!

I was treated very well and thoroughly by Dr. Straut and his associates. Everyone makes you feel conformable. He addressed my concerns and explained the glaucoma diagnosis and the drops treatment.

Polite and efficient

The office is extremely professional and helpful. Dr. Straut was knowledgeable and punctual, I was in and out quickly.

Relatively early morning appointment - few patients so I was in and out. Staff was cheerful and helpful. Dr. Straut was pleasant, got to work and willing to answer any questions.

I was treated very well and thoroughly by Dr. Straut and his associates. I was pleased with the result as I didn't need a new prescription and have no eye disorder.

Great doctor, thorough exam, patient questions encouraged. Great staff as well. Dr. Mandese has taken care of my eyes for MANY years. High quality care!

Great experience! Thank you@

I have been a patient of Dr Mandese for a lot of years, and have been completely satisfied with the care I have recieved. He always takes his time, I never feel rushed, and the staff from the front desk to his assistants are just great.

I think the visit was an awfully long visit in total. I was taken care of very well by all the personnel. Thank you.

I left a Text about how my eyes are doing with the eye drops given to me by Dr. Straut. Dr. Straut is a Specialist that specializes with Dry Eyes. My eyes are doing so much better. Margot Richards Birckhead

Very professional

Friendly and professional

Efficient, organized, and professional. I am happy with my results .

Dr Eric Straut has been my eye doctor since moving to Florida in 2015. He shows compassion and concern with each visit. I had shingles in my eye and he was quick to get the correct treatment. He also arranged appointments with his associates to do their jobs when complications occurred in the following year. I am very grateful for his knowledge and expertise. I would recommend him to everyone.

Kind,caring and honest with what your options are .

Pleasant and friendly all around experience . .

Dr. Straut and his staff are always cordial. Puts you at ease and explains everything

This practice was caring and efficient from start to finish. As a new patient, I got an appointment within two days of my first phone call. Everyone was pleasant and kind. The doctor was very knowledgeable and took time to hear me and explain all the options. This will be where I go for all of my eye car needs from now on.

Courteous, professional and knowledgeable.

Everything was excellent.

Dr. Straut checked my eye for a scratch from a plant and provided me with drops to prevent an infection. And this was after regular patient hours though the office was still open. I’m very appreciative that he agreed to see me and eliminate any worries I otherwise would have had.

Very easy to talk to or asks a question

Dr. Straut was very nice and seemed very knowledgeable. I felt very comfortable with him.

As a patient of Dr. Darlington I’ve had a wonderful experience to date and expect it to continue into the future. Can’t imagine allowing any other doctor to do surgery on my eyes! He has a very professional staff in Atlantic Eye and the surgery center. I’m nosey and occasionally ask if they are happy working here and I get big smiles saying they love it or wouldn’t want to work anywhere else. Happy employees do their job better which is not only good for the doctor, but we patients too. Kudos to all!

Dr. Straut is great. Have been going to him for years. Friendly, professional & explains everything in a way I can understand. Staff is always friendly too. The wait time could be better but that just shows how popular they are.

Great experience. Always asking if you need anything or have any concerns.

Great experience with Dr Straut. He is always informative as to any questions I may have.

MY APPOINTMENT WAS GREAT, THE TECH WAS VERY GOOD AND DR DARLINGTON WAS GREATN

Very busy office but very efficient

They got me right in with a small emergency issue. Dr Straut took the extra time to explain everything even though it was busy.

Takes time fot questions

Everyone I had met were very knowledgeable and helpful. Made me feel important. Overall a great experience.

I was fully satisfied with the service and professionalism received.

Caring and personable crew from front desk to doctor. Clean offices and timely care.

You'll get about 90 seconds with him. Uncaring and not empathetic at all. Doesn't listen. He's right and you're wrong. Find somewhere else to go.

Very knowledgeable staff, answered all of our questions, was thorough and helpful!

Very satisfied with the care I receive.

Very impressed, the doctor knows the best way to help me. I needed additional tests to be able to improve my eyesight. I am happy to trust his recommendation.

Very satisfied with the exam. The wait to be seen was a little long

Dr. Strout takes his time with me and helps me understand what's going on with my eyes, What's causing the problems and how to fix it. that's exactly what you need when your vision changes and you are concerned about your eyesight.

Excellent!!!!!

It's comforting to know that

Very informative and professional

Great doctor, great staff. Only problem was that you have to wait past your appointment time to get in. I think that he is worth it. Bring your cell phone to play some games, and the time will go fast!

Successful cataract surgery. Very professional.

Dr. Strout is an excellent doctor. He explains everything very clearly. In addition to being very professional he is also very kind. I recommend him highly.

Absolutely wonderful! Dr.Mandese is very thorough with his exam, his staff are very professional and very polite.

Except for the waiting, all else was fine.

///

I will never go back to this place! I have been to two appointments here and both appointments took over 2 hours! They seem to have no regard for their patients time and making them wait. I actually walked out of my second appointment without even seeing the doctor as I became so frustrated with the length of waiting time. What is a reasonable time to wait for a scheduled appointment?? I am always early to my appointments and respect the time of others. As far as I can see, this practice has 0 respect for the time of their patients.

Get more doctors or stop booking so many patients

Very good examination of my eyes. Dr Straut answered all questions clearly . Very kind and compassionate as well as very knowledgeable! Thank you!

My visit was handled expeditiously and professionally. Thank you!!

Only bad thing don’t ever and I mean ever use my middle name again

As Always, Dr Eric Straut has given me great care. His staff is efficient and professional. He is a trusted provider and an excellent doctor!

Outstanding

Thorough exam - answered all my questions

The doctor was very good at explaining the cataract surgery and all that is to be done.

Great experience with office staff and physician . Professional and they actually listen and answer questions . Would recommend !

Atlantic eye consultants runs their business beautifully. Very professional on time and most importantly excellent results. I feel like it was well taken care of in every aspect of my time having cataract surgery. I highly recommend this practice to anyone who needs an ophthalmologist.

I've received excellent care from Dr. Straut for several years. He is professionally very competent and excellent at explaining the implications of results, presenting options in a positive manner that is very reassuring. He is also treating my 98 year old mother in law and has shown great sensitivity in dealing with her concerns which are frequently repetitive and not reality based. I would recommend him without hesitation.

No complaints everything was good Dr. Michael is a good man
