Retina Institute Ruper Eye Center

Wow am i the only one who likes Ruper. I guess just because he did do a theral check up of my eyes but still lack further testing. And was just misdiagnose as to jut having dirt particles in the lens that distorted my vision. But he did took his time and did a theral exam. I just would like to have a more detail exam like an OCT. Would have told me more detail about my retina. It’s just that probably at 70 something maybe Ruper should retire.

I’ll be honest when I say that this review isn’t for Dr. Ruper himself, but rather the practice in general. I’m sure Dr. Ruper is wonderful and I wish I would have gotten to see him.
However, I made an appointment via ZocDoc – so, perhaps there was a snafu in that process – and when I showed up to Dr. Ruper’s office, there was no one there. I had booked a 9 AM appointment on a Thursday, and had originally showed up at around 8:55. No worries, I figured, I’d just wait a few minutes for them to get set up. What struck me as strange, though, was that there were no cars in the parking lot. So I called the office and the answering service picked up. I waited on hold for a few minutes, but eventually, it became 9 AM, so I tried the front door again.
Still locked.
I called the office again, and the answering service picked up again. I waited in my car for another fifteen minutes, until 9:15 AM, and tried once more. Still no cars in the lot, still the front door was locked. I turned around, went home, called the office again and was met with… the answering service!
Like I said, maybe there was an incident with ZocDoc. Still with 9 AM scheduling available, you’d figure the office would be opened up around 9 AM.

This eye center is great. The technicians are friendly and thorough. Dr. Ruper is super nice and professional. The whole atmosphere is warm and personable, they make a long and somewhat tedious eye exam a pretty nice experience.
Highly recommend
