About Retina Specialists
Retina Specialists is recognized for providing exceptional eye care, particularly in handling serious conditions like detached retinas. Patients commend the skill and professionalism of the doctors, especially Dr. Thompson, who is noted for his effective assessments and prompt procedures. Many reviews highlight the quick response for emergency appointments and the seamless follow-up care that leaves patients feeling well taken care of and satisfied with their treatment outcomes. However, some aspects of the patient experience at Retina Specialists could be improved. A few reviews mention concerns about the front desk staff's welcoming approach and the use of a kiosk for check-in, which some find impersonal and inefficient. The need for better communication regarding wait times and a more friendly atmosphere is emphasized, along with suggestions to enhance cleanliness, especially concerning shared surfaces during ongoing health concerns. Despite these issues, the overall sentiment is positive, with many patients expressing their intention to return due to the high quality of care received from the medical team. Retina Specialists is valued as a crucial resource for eye health in the Towson area, combining expert medical care with a commitment to patient recovery.
The specialist were great who gave me the tests, the technician that worked with the doctor was superb & Dr Thompson was exceptional. I was quite impressed with his assessment & the professional manner that he & his technician blended their responsibilities together. I was pleased with their care.
CONCERNS: The front-desk women may need a little coaching. There is a real disconnect due to the kiosk & their inability to welcome people coming in the office. One woman gave me a few pages to fill out & she was rather nice. The other woman, not so much.

Top notch care.
I was recommended to see them after my annual eye exam revealed a detached retina!
Dr Thompson was great. Not only did he get me right in, after my exam he even performed the procedure right then and there!
Detached retina repaired. No side effects and painless.
Follow up appointments have been efficient and quick.
Thanks again for amazing care. We are so lucky to have such a wonderful eye care resource right in Towson!
My ophthalmologist recommended Retina Specialists to determine and treat an issue he had difficulty diagnosing. They gave me an 'emergency' appointment. The ophthalmologist seeing me took pictures and when he returned to the room, introduced me to his partner who would be operating on my detached retina in two days. The recovery has taken many months, but I have my sight and am completely functioning. Couldn't be more pleased with the care.
