Good eye doc, but his cataract surgery is not available for indefinite period. Very disappointing.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Long wait time before being roomed which was explained by emergent add-ons. I appreciate the fact that emergencies are worked in. My suggestion: call patients and give them a new check-in time. Every half hour I am sitting idle in your waiting room means I have to work longer at my job to make up for missed time. Dr. Jones seems to be scheduling fairly far out, and this seems to be a problem with a great many providers these days. I have no suggestions how this could be improved. Hire an additional provider?Overall, my experience has been a good one, and I plan to see Dr. Jones again in the future.

The people who I met in the clinic including the doctor were pleasant. They were patient with me when it came to trying to put eye drops for dilation. I thanked the 2 people who were able to get the drops in my eyes.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Jones is very thorough in his exam of your eyes and if ordering meds to help, he always has you coming back in 6 weeks to check to see if your eyes are responding to the treatment.

Dr Jones removed cataracts from both my eyes. I'm extremely happy with the results and would recommend his skill and knowledge to anyone needing this procedure.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Wait time to see this provider is most always too long.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.

I needed a same day at for an eye issue, My dr out of town, got an appt right away w Dr Jones. Very thoughtful respectful and helpful.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
The doctor was double booked during my appointment time and I was not informed. I was taken back 25 minutes after my appointment time and missed work. It would have been better to call me earlier that day and inform me that the provider would be running behind so I didn't have to miss as much work or I could reschedule. The staff didn't apologize or Inform me of his double book at check in nor did they apologize for running late once in the exam room. I was treated well and examed thoroughly but it was very poor customer service.

Dr Jones assistant who checked my eyes and told me about my next eye surgery is amazing! I can't remember her name. She's very thorough and accommodating!
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Long wait times and I noticed another patient came in and stated they had an appointment for the same provider at the same time as mine, overall good care though and great personable service from nurses/assistants
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
I have referred Dr Jones to two friends. They are pleased, as well.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
My only complaint is that I waited over an hour and a half to see the doctor! 45 minutes in the waiting room, and another 20 minuets in the small room after the technician scan.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
My appointment was at 2pm. I did not see the doctor until 3pm! I waited in the hallway because the waiting room was overflowing. I was never asked about Covid! This was not a good experience!!!
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Jones an d the lady who took me to the room and checked my eye pressure were both excellent.

Waited way too long, 50 min. After appointment time. Way too far of a location for me to drive myself. I do not drive in Portland city.

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.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
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.

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.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
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.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
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 was just a visit about cataract surgery - so it had nothing to do with my basic health problems.

Very good experience.

The technicians who do the testing are excellent at their job. They all seem to like their jobs and the patients that they are seeing.
Everyone I encountered, including employees I happened to meet while wondering how to get to the parking lot, we're very pleasant and helpful!
