Mar-2025

I went to Pacific Eye a few days after one of my eyes sort of exploded, changing the angle of view and adding a cluster of floaties. I knew it was time to report to the doctor but imagined I would have to wait for several days. First, the lady at the desk, Elizabeth, treated me calmly and extremely well. I tried to explain my problem and she knew all the right questions to ask so she could understand what happened and could explain it to someone who could see me. Perhaps she could tell I was very stressed and worried so she found a doctor in the building who could help me the same afternoon. I was amazed at the efficiency of both Elizabeth and Dr. Dirksen, whom I had never met. Dr. Dirksen was also very good at handling a worried patient. He very calmly explained exactly what had happened and used the chart on the wall to help me understand. When he was finished I felt much better and was a lot less worried. I cannot be thankful enough for the way both Elizabeth at the front desk and Dr. Dirksen handled a stressed patient who had no appointment. I have been very slow to sit down and write a review, but my appreciation will last forever.

Dr. Dirksen is rare, he's a doctor that cares about patients trials. After years of suffering from severe dry eye, in which other doctors just said to use OTC meds that were very limiting in their effectiveness, Dr. Dirksen prescribed an eye drop that is unusual...it works. No other doctor before even tried a prescription med for me. While I'm currently on the sample pack he kindly gave me, my insurance has approved the Rx and will be seeing the resupply shortly. So, Thanks Doc, you are awesome.
