I cannot thank Dr. Nicholas enough. I had a massive stye back in December 2023 that WOULD NOT go away despite doing everything I was supposed to do to treat it. My mom recommended Dr. Nicholas, since my usual ophthalmologist wouldn't have been able to see me until February 2024 and I was unsure of where to turn. Being newer to the practice, Dr. Nicholas was able to squeeze me in for an appointment the same day back in December to check it out. He had amazing bedside manner and a genuine desire to help me get rid of the alien that was taking up residence in my eyelid (it was that big). He always walked me through his process in trying to examine my eyelid and how he wanted to treat it. I could go on and on about how cared for I felt during the process. Dr. Nicholas saw through my issue in its entirety and my eyelid is now currently stye free and I'm ecstatic. He is definitely my go to ophthalmologist now. As for Berks Eye Physicians & Surgeons Ltd. I came in as a new patient and I could not be more thrilled with my experience. The facility is very clean and well staffed. They had a table set up with someone there to help fill out new patient paperwork. I never had to wait long to be called back to see my doctor. The nurses are so kind and made me feel at ease. When it was my turn to be called back I truly felt as if I was the only patient there.
All the personnel provided excellent service examining my eyes. Dr. Benjamin Nicholas was very polite and exceptional in explaining all the procedures. Thanks to all involved for being there.
I highly recommend this practice, and in particular, am thrilled with the care I received from Dr. Benjamin Nicholas and his excellent staff. Dr. Nicholas is extremely knowledgeable, attentive and compassionate. I am so very grateful to Dr. Nicholas because his expert care prevented my loss of vision.
I received prompt and courteous care for an eye emergency which included blurry vision, more floaters and eye soreness. Was given a complete dilated eye exam by Dr Ben Nicholas, who reassured me there was no retinal tear or detachment! Great relief. Told me what to expect if that should occur in the future. Wants to see me again in 1 month to check my vision and status. Very thoughtful and caring young man.
Dr Nicholas listened to my problem. Told me the side effects of the drops he prescribed. He was very efficient and patient while performing a procedure.
Each time I have been treated in the office it was always a good experience. The Nurses have always been kind when they did some pre-testing for the doctor. Dr. Nicholas is a kind caring doctor and he tries his best to treat the present problems you are having. I trust his diagnosis. He goes over everything very thoroughly each time you see him. You can feel comfortable with him and I am glad he is there.
