Boulder Eye Surgeons MD

I scheduled an appointment for a consultation for cataract surgery, I was told I had to wait a min. of 3 weeks for the consult because I wore contact lens. When I showed up, a technician spent about 20 minutes doing several tests, then Dr. Gustave popped his head in the door, to shake my hand and stated that it appeared that I would not need surgery, but they could control my cataracts with corrective lenses. Then he left. My husband and I looked at each other and mentioned how strange that was. The technician returned to do some more tests, then Dr. Gustave returned to the exam room to do some of the same tests that the technician had just done. He then announced that I did need cataract surgery after all. I was totally confused. He said he came in and told me that I didn’t need it because he thought I might be getting agitated because the exam was taking a while so he thought a diagnosis was a good idea even if it was the wrong one. I would never let this man touch my eyes. I also found out that I didn’t need to wait the 3 weeks for the consult, the receptionist needed more training.

I just had cataract surgery in September on both of my eyes by Dr. Nichols. He did a great job! I had a great experience with all office staff I had to deal with. I would recommend this place to my friends.

This place is fabulous. The receptionists are all respectful and caring, and the medical technician that initially checked my eyes and prepared my chart for the doctor was incredible. He was patient, polite, and answered all of my questions with sensitivity and care. He obviously loved where he worked, and had great respect for the doctors. I saw Dr. Nichols, and he was really encouraging. Me and my family will never go anywhere else for our eye exams. This place is a gem.
