Loved every part of my experience. Staff and doctors wonderful. Explained everything from start to finish. One of the best decisions i have ever made. Highly recommend!!!

TLC took excellent care of me during the entire process. They answered all questions upfront to make me feel safe and confident, communicated with me during the surgery, and reached out to me afterwards to make sure my recovery was going well. I would recommend TLC to everyone.

The staff at TLC in Albany, NY was superb. Between reception, the ophthalmic technicians, surgical coordinator, and the clinical director there wasn't a person who didn't answer any question I had; they went out of their way to make me feel like I wasn't just another case but rather a friend whom they wanted to have the best eyecare experience possible. I especially appreciate Dr. Cortese's patience with me and my numerous questions about the pre-op and post-op practices; it's not often a doctor takes the time to answer any and all questions regardless of their nature. Will absolutely recommend friends who are candidates for surgery to come here and become another satisfied patient like myself.

Every step from booking the consultation and appointment to the day of the procedure and follow up were beyond my expectations. All of the doctors and staff I encountered went above and beyond to explain what was going to happen. They made me feel extremely comfortable and answered every question I had. I would highly recommend going to TLC for Lasik.

Overall great experience getting Lasic at TLC! Staff was super accommodating in explaining everything and alleviating my anxiety over someone operating on my eyeballs while I was awake 😀. It went very well and I walked out SIGHTED! I’m four days post-op and no soreness as long as I do my drops on the schedule they provided. Highly recommended! *They also coordinated flawlessly with my local eye doctor, which was so appreciated! My post-op check up went super well due to their superb communication.

Angela Bombard is absolutely phenomenal! She and the rest of the staff at TLC made me comfortable and feel cared for. Thank you TLC!!!

2018-07-27T22:29:53+0000

The entire staff was very professional and friendly, answered all of the questions I had during the pre-op and the LASIK procedure itself, provided great explanations of what I would feel and hear during it, and did an excellent job with the procedure itself - done in 15 minutes. It feels amazing being glasses- and contact-free for the first time since middle school! They were also conscientious and worked with my primary eye care physician so I could have all my follow up treatments with him since my primary's location is more convenient for me. I was very impressed with Katy, who down to the last minute worked to get me the best financial deal on the procedure, and ended up saving me several hundred dollars. I highly recommend TLC Slingerlands!

2018-05-12T18:23:52+0000

LOVED everything about my TLC Experience! Everyone working in that office is incredibly helpful. Samantha could see how SUPER nervous I was, and answered every one of the numerous questions I had to ask. Since I already had stopped wearing my contacts weeks prior to the appointment I was able to schedule a surgery date the following week, AND do my pre op appointment that day!! The day of my procedure I was very nervous, but they were all very accommodating and helped my get through it. My ONLY regret about his whole experience was not getting this done years earlier, I am upset I waited this long!!! I can’t stop talking about it, and still cannot believe this is my reality right now. Thank you everyone!!**Life is too short, people. Do NOT wait**��

I’m so happy I chose to get lasik done at TLC in Albany. I don’t do well with surgeries and I never felt once that I was anything less than in great hands. I met a lot of their staff whom all had a smile on their face each visit I made. Before the procedure, anyone in the waiting room could tell I was nervous. The woman at the front brought me back to my exam room right before the procedure and made me feel so special by offering me water and talked me through how she felt for her lasik. Although I loved everyone, I especially bonded with Donna there. She was wonderful and even held my hand through the entire procedure. I may have gotten the name of the other assistant in my procedure room but was so nervous I forgot. He joked with me A LOT to help me feel less anxious (specifically about food-stuffed shells). There was also another woman named Paula who was with me who truly made the procedure easier by talking to me through the entire thing. Of course, the doctor was amazing as well. I went in with a -7.00 prescription and left today reading 20/15. I even called the emergency line after leaving and was not put on the phone with any general doctor, but MY specific one. If I could give more stars, I would. Clearly, I’m a nervous person when it comes to my health. If you’re like me, I will HIGHLY suggest you to this location and eye center. I can’t speak on other centers in the area but I can say that I can’t think of any other place I would have rather have gone. Thank you all, from the bottom of my heart!

I just had lasik yesterday. Can't say enough about the staff or Doctors. You can't trust your eyes to just anyone but I am so happy I trusted them to this facility. Amazing so happy with the outcome and it's only day one. Thank you TLC.. Oh yeah typing all this without bifocals.

2017-11-23T11:11:20+0000

Amazing! Cant say enough great things. Staff and Doctors are welcoming and make you feel comfortable. Exceptionally clean facility! The night of my Lasik, the Doc called to make sure I was comfortable, and everything was good!! If you are considering Lasik, this is the place to go ��

I'm close to 48 hours post-op (LASIK) and everything is going great. My vision was 20/15 at my 24 checkup yesterday! Angela, Elizabeth, Emily and Katy were all so helpful. I've already recommended you to at least 10 people. Thank you for everything!

I just had lasik Thursday. I was very nervous had lots of questions the day of the surgery. Dr. Cortez took the time to talk to me again before my surgery. They were also available by phone and email the weeks before my surgery. The only thing I didn't care for is them making it sound so good the day of your post op visit to see if you're a canadate and then sending you home with this very intimidating packet telling all the possible side affects and things that could happen. I think this should have been discussed along with them making it sound too good to be true. After reading the packet and calling them with questions though they were very good at answering any questions I had. The day of the surgery the surgeon DR. Schultze came in and talked with me. This was the first time I'd meant him. Very nice Dr. he told me that it's his job to keep me safe and give me the best possible vision he can. He wouldn't operate on a person if he didn't feel it was safe. He talked to me through the whole procedure which was probably 10 to 15 minutes. After the procedure Dr. Cortez looked at my eyes again. I could make some things out but they were fuzzy. I went and napped for a couple hours, got up and went to dinner. U was seeing objects and reading the menu. It was nice but I was going in and out of focus a lot. The next day I went back and had Dr. Cortez look at my eyes again and read the eye chart. It was still fuzzy but I was making it out. My focusing from far to near takes some time. I have to blink a few times to get it to come in focus. I find myself getting tired out a lot and taking naps throughout the next few days. Sunday my right eye hazed over and made me nervous. U called the emergency number given to me by the staff at TLC and Dr. Cortez was great at answering my questions. He ended up changing my eye drops and reassured me this was normal. My focusing from near to far and back still needed to blink a few times to get in focus. Sunday I was really light sensitive more so than the day of my surgery. Today Tuesday about 2:30 my vision suddenly changed. It's like things just cleared right up. I don't know why but I'm seeing better. So this has been my experience so far. I'm very pleased with not having to wear glasses and the way the staff at TLC has treated me. I would recommend them.

Everyone was so kind and patient with me through the whole process, especially Peter who was in the surgery room and totally helped me relax.

Monica Ayres

2017-04-01T10:49:52+0000

I went to 3 different Lasik facilities before deciding on TLC. Their staff is phenomenal and the customer service was really great. The testing was thorough and they explained everything clearly in terms I could understand. Katy was available by email and phone to answer any questions that I had leading up to the procedure. The day of surgery was fairly stress free (just general nerves) and the doctor talked me through the entire procedure. I had Lasik last night and could see clearly almost immediately. I highly recommend TLC.

I would highly recommend TLC Albany to anyone. I was severely far sided before the surgery and less than 24 hours later I have 20/20 vision with no discomfort. The service and technology is state of the art.

After being in glasses and contacts since I was 8 yrs. old this was one of the best experiences I have ever had. Day after surgery I was seeing 20/20 and today at my one week follow up I'm seeing 20/15. I would recommend this place to anyone thinking about getting Lasik surgery.

2016-07-16T10:49:04+0000
