Dr. Christopher Fleming, MD

I found Dr. Fleming from the AMA web site, saw that he was accomplished in his education, respected by his peers, had been Chief of Medicine at the hospital next door. I see him regularly for vision and retina checks. When my lens prescription wasn't quite right, he was able to figure out where we went wrong, using equipment to help figure out my astigmatism better. When my eye was hit with some stray yard debris, my eye was wounded and infected. It was a fast and very aggressive infection. Dr. Fleming saw me daily, treating my eye and monitoring what was happening with my vision, adjusting medication to suit the particular bacteria that ailed me. He kept close attention to my condition, and encouraged me to contact him at home on the weekend/holiday if I had any changes, and he would see me at his office no matter when I needed to. He legitimately cares about his patients and explains things very well. I highly recommend Dr. Fleming for your eye needs.

I only went to see Dr. Fleming as he was one of the only Ophthalmologists that participated with my health insurance carrier. My husband went with me to the appointment. My husband, trying to be helpful attempted to give Dr. Fleming some background information, and in doing so, Dr. Fleming abruptly held his finger up at my husband as to say don't talk. A few minutes later, my husband provided some more information that we thought could be helpful to Dr. Fleming, and he became furious. His face was red with anger and he pointed his finger at my husband any YELLED "YOU BE QUIET" We were more that surprised at his hugely unprofessional manner. We were stunned, and greatly humiliated. At that moment we should have left, but we didn't want to make matters worse. We are both in the healthcare field, and this was absolutely appalling to us.

I have been a patient at this practice for a number of years and I've always been very pleased with the care I've received. Dr. Fleming is extremely knowledgeable and it is obvious that he enjoys his work very much. He always takes time to make me feel welcome, do a thorough exam, explain his findings in easy to understand terminology, listen to any concerns I may have, and answer my questions.

Very unprofessional and very egotistical. Did not give me the proper treatment (even though I told him what was wrong) until my eye was completely infected so that he could keep charging me. Did not listen or care what I had to say because his huge ego would not allow that. Cancelled my remaining appointments with him, called another clinic nearby who informed me they hear the same statements from his other patients that have left and come to them. Not surprised at all.

This was my initial visit to the office and I was pleased with all aspects of my visit.
