Dr. Eric Putnoi, MD

Wonderful experience with Putnoi Eye Care Dear Dr. Putnoi, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional service provided by you and your staff. Your professionalism and dedication are truly commendable. Thank you for all that you do. After Dr. Richard Domfeld retired from Boston Eye Institute, he recommended that I start going to Putnoi Eye Care. From the moment I became a patient, Dr. Putnoi and his staff made me feel like a welcomed member of their extended family. I have been seeing Dr. Putnoi for about three years now, and I must say that he is one of the best doctors I have ever had the pleasure of consulting with. The only other doctor who comes close is Dr. Richard Domfeld. From day one Dr Putnoi is very patient, friendly, caring, professional and a good listener. He answers all my questions and addresses my concerns every office visit. Unfortunately, I have been diagnosed with cataracts and glaucoma. I recently underwent cataract removal surgeries on May 3 and 11, 2023. My eye pressure returned to normal following the cataract surgery. I am extremely satisfied with the services of Dr. Putnoi whom we selected for the procedure. He provided me with a thorough explanation of the process beforehand. The surgeries were effortless and painless, and I am overjoyed with the outcomes. I feel grateful to have had Dr. Putnoi as my eye surgeon. Dr. Putnoi, who is truly exceptional. His expertise, professionalism, and approachable demeanor made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. Most impressive was the personalized care he provided, which surpassed all expectations. He is truly a “Gem in the Field of Eye Surgery”. Dr. Eric Putnoi, I would like to compliment you and your staff for making my cataract surgery a positive experience. I especially like how cheerfully and professionally I was treated from the first time I walked in the door at SUGISITE BOSTON, 1440 Main Street Waltham MA. All phases of the surgery were carefully explained to me, and all my questions were answered to my satisfaction. Dr. Putnoi and the entire staff at Putnoi Eyes Care are beyond amazing. When you have an appointment, they will spend the whole scheduled period with you if need be; I know when I come in to see Dr. Putnoi, he’s already reviewed the reasons for my coming in and my file. I never feel rushed, and he always asks if I have any other questions. He’s awesome. Even after both surgeries, Dr. Putnoi's staff went above and beyond by calling to check on my well-being. I was truly impressed by their level of care and dedication. The waiting area and exam rooms looked clean, tidy, comfortable, and modern. I saw technicians disinfecting seats and equipment before and after patients. The staff was very friendly and professional and the tech who helped me did a great job of taking scans and measurements of my eye and explaining the procedure. Your equipment is state-of-the-art. Your staff is alert, friendly, and meticulous. Follow-up appointments are an essential part of the recovery process and are made easy for your convenience. Two offices are located in: Putnoi Eye Care Wellesley Hills Office, 1 Washington Street, Suite 304 Wellesley Hills, MA 02481 / 20 Hope Ave, Waltham, MA 02453 to ensure accessibility and provide helpful support.

I saw Dr. Narae Ko for extreme eye inflammation w/ pain & itching, following the flu. She came in, examined my eyes, and said steroid drops would help them heal. When she entered it in the computer she saw that my insurance would pay for something even better that I could use on my lids, too, and ordered that, which I appreciated. But, she was very rushed and went to leave immediately. I asked her which pharmacy she sent it to and I told her that it wasn't the pharmacy I use. So she sat back down and said she sent it to the right one and left. I waited for a text telling me it was ready to be picked up, then called the pharmacy who said they never got it. I called the practice, which had closed for the weekend. I left a message on the "Emergency Line," but never heard back. So, no treatment for the very thing I went there for, meaning a weekend of suffering. Why see a doctor?

With Dr Putnoi I had great confidence and results. I was not an easy case either. I can see again. I can’t believe it. Omg go here. ….

Dr. Putnoi’s initial exam at his office in Wellesley was very thorough from the eye measurements,scan, vision acuity test and the meeting explaining the surgery. I had both eyes done one week apart and they operations were successful. The team is very well organized and there are no surprises. I highly recommend Dr. Putnoi.

My first (and last) visit involved waiting an hour in crowded room resembling a bus station more than a doctor's office. When I was called I thought to see the doctor, but no, this ride was just beginning. 1st stop was a tiny room yet somehow they managed to have two chairs in there with one man already waiting; I knew it would be a while. Eventually I was moved to a second room, answered questions & 20 mins later saw the dr. He said not to wear my contacts for a few days. "NEXT IN LINE!"

After waiting three weeks, I arrived at my appt for laser treatment of ingrown eyelashes (trichiasis). I waited an hour, then I see Dr. Putnoi & he asks me what I am there for! I tell him the laser treatment to remove the irritating eyelashes. He tells me the technician who does this is not in the office & wanted me to reschedule after waiting three weeks! (And by the way, there is still an office visit charge for today.) No thanks, I'll just find a better ophthalmologist.

Dr. Putnoi is a caring and compassionate doctor who gives the time to provide "world class" eye care to his patients. He is easy to talk to and understands the concerns that one may have prior to surgery. I have had him perform cataract surgery on both of my eyes and the results are fabulous! I see better at night than I have ever seen in my lifetime. Dr. Putnoi is the best!

I don't think you'll find a better ophthalmologist than Dr. Putnoi. He is excellent in every regard
