Dr Jones is an extremely competent ophthalmologist. I had an eye problem that came up suddenly & I was able to get in the same day for him to look at it. I felt that he was very thorough in examining my eye. His assistants are also extremely competent.

No privacy in waiting area. Receptionist uses voice magnification requesting personal info. Dr snd asst did not engage in any conversation with me. Very impersonal, abrupt. No confidence. Did not feel I had an accurate eye reading. Did nothing to address concerns. Will not go back or recommend.

The only problem that occurred was with the pre-procedure prep solution, which failed to adequately clean my colon.

Doctor was not welcoming. I am a new patient. He was very matter of fact and answered questions I had but didn't offer any additional information.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
When I went to get another appt there was no one at the front desk. After waiting acouple of minutes I left.

Overall I was very pleased with my first visit and when Dr Jones said I needed to see another doctor at your office, they were able to get me in without making another appointment.

The doctor was great but forgot to tell me the answer to the reason I was referred to him.I worked front and back office In the medical field at OHSU for 17 years, and very successfully. I am very concerned about the tech that did the initial eye exams before I saw the doctor for my cataracts that day. Due to the requirement of wearing masks, the lenses on the equipment kept fogging up during that part of the examination. I repeatedly told her I couldn't see the screens due to the lenses fogging up. She got frustrated and told me I better try harder or they wouldn't be able to do the examination. This was highly inappropriate. She did not offer a solution. Instead, her response triggered the thought that to please her, I'd have to fake my answers or not get an exam. I suggest additional training for this person.

Did not ask about vision medications. Did not ask reason for visit. Found problem but for different reason.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Longer wait than usual to see the provider but he provided an acceptable reason, that he was needed for an ED situation.

It took 4 days before I could get through to Schedule. I waited on line for 10 minutes on 2 days before hanging up without getting service. I also waited for 5 minutes on 2 additional days with no service. I finally was able to get appt by calling before 9:00 AM.

I've had Dr. Eric Jones for a long time and find him to be very thorough and caring.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
No bad things. Disappointed that it takes long to schedule surgery. Unable to talk to the scheduler the day after appointment. Seems like we are going to play phone tag causing list time

This visit was for my yearly eye exam not my regular PCP.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
This was just a visit about cataract surgery - so it had nothing to do with my basic health problems.

Very good experience.

Everything was routine!
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
I spent a significant amount of time with the tech. Much more time than the doc. I hope she is getting paid more than the doc is.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Jones was very courteous and his technician was especially, so. Really great. Even though Dr. Jones didn't have a solution to my problem of dizziness and ear-ringing, he was very kind and let me know my eyes were in really good shape. He was also able to conduct a vision test for a new eyeglass prescription.

The assistant that took my screenings to prep for MD appt was excellent in informing me of exact stet she would do and the results after the test. Very professional and thorough.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
I actually showed up over an hour early for my appt. They were able to change to within 15 mins of me being there. I believe they took me back in like 6 mins. The Dr. Wwas quick to come to the room. It was a very nice appt.

Love Dr. Jones PA. He is always happy and friendly and quite patient. Dr. Jones is terrific. I feel he is very knowledgeable in his area but I do feel he could chat a bit more about unrelated things like family, etc. PA does engage in idle conversation which is nice.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Jones had a less warm personality, but left no doubt as to his expertise and knowledge of the issue and the surgery.

The staff are present and professional.The doctor is dispassionate and a poor listener. As a patient, I feel like a widget in a factory. After over 3 years, he doesn't even know my name. It occurred to me yesterday that he may be on the spectrum, and I should taylor my expectations accordingly.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Great front desk team, got me in quickly for an urgent eye issue. Tech was great. Doctor was efficient and thorough. Good experience overall.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
I think Dr. Jones is a good doctor. That said his service was rather perfunctory lacking much in the way by warmth or "bedside" manner, a quality I find almost all Legacy staff possesses.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Took time to answer questions.

This was a yearly eye exam after cataract surgery a year ago. I was not notified beforehand about eye dilation. It was a very bright sunny day and difficult to see as I drove out of the garage. Result was I hit a post by the exit booth and damaged my bumper. Not the doctor's fault. Should have had someone else with me to drive home.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
I had an 8:15 apt, the man how called me back at 8:35 and dilated my eyes never introduced himself. He said it would be about 10 min and Dr Jones would be in. He did not come in until approximately 9:12 just as I was about to see how much longer I needed to wait. Dr Jones, talked fast, it felt like he was rushing to get me out. I was not understanding at 8:15 way there was such a delay by both.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Very good as always.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
He voiced readiness to do cataract surgeries but did not urge them upon me, merely saying that 'when I want it, it's quick and easy, one-day in and out', and to just let him know!.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Good doc.

Dr Jones is an excellent doctor very patient and kind
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Jones only saw me after his tech. The tech gave me my new glasses prescription not Dr. Jones. I felt somewhat taken aback even though the tech did a good job. I felt Dr. Jones should have spent more time with me.

Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
when I checked in the receptionist was extremely nice. after my appointment I realized I had left my contacts in the room so I went back and got in line to ask if they could get my contacts. I walked out of line to open the door and it was locked so I went and got back in line and the receptionist that was on the right hand side of the desk, not the one that checked me in, said you just stepped in front of three people and I said no I just walked over and tried to open the door and she said no you didn't you just stepped in front of three people and I said excuse me no I did not I just tried to open the door to see if I could go in there to get my contacts I left them in the room. She said it again and I said please can someone check and get my contacts That's all I need. She did go and get my contacts then but I felt really uncomfortable because she was so rude to me. I don't know her name and she had shoulder length hair. other than her I had an extremely nice visit with everyone in the office. Dr Jones intern that did everything with my eyes was an extremely kind and nice woman. I would recommend her to anyone as I would Dr Jones. I just had that one bad experience with that one receptionist and she really turned me off from coming back.
