| - I didn't specifically get Dr. Wellish, but I loved Dr. Langford and the rest of the staff at Wellish. I'm guessing it's due to the area they're located in, but the other patients were a little....ghetto. And the office is kind of run down honestly. But as I said, the staff are so great and the equipment seems fine so that's all that really matters.
I haven't been to the doctor since I got lasik a few years ago, and I mainly just went to get occasional glasses since I'm still pretty nearsighted. This visit was prompted by the fact that I went to see a show Priscilla Queen of the Desert. From my sh*tty seat in the back, I honestly couldn't tell if some of the background dancers were dudes in drag, or just bigger ladies. That was a wake-up call about how bad my far sight really was.....
Anyway, the techs were nice and personable both times I was there. Dr Langford was awesome too (very nice and cute), and I was surprised by the fact that he wanted to do a topography map of the surface of my eye just for his peace of mind to make sure everything was ok. He made the point to say that he wasn't billing for it, he just wanted to be thorough. I told him that I have insurance so it doesn't matter to me, but I was impressed that he was that honest and caring.
I say this way too often lately, but my dumb@ss happened to get the date of my appointment wrong, so I showed up a day early. I was pretty shocked when they took me anyway. It did mean a longer wait time, but it was so nice of them to squeeze me into the schedule. I would've been fine coming back the next day.
The only negative is that they don't do glasses on site, so I still have to find a place to pick out frames and do the lenses, but that's only a minor inconvenience. I'll probably find a better price not getting it in a doctors office anyway.
