Benjamin Hendrick Ticho

Best place to go for eye care, very clean & professional. All the Dr's are wonderful and the staff is great also.

Ticho Eye Associates in my opinion is the only place to go for your ophthalmology care. Dr Ticho is world renowned. Dr Laura Sanders truly cares about her patients and is extremely thorough. She practically saved my vision and keeps me in line with follow up and medications. The staff goes above and beyond. I’ve recommended Ticho to anyone and everyone that asks.

Never going there again! My daughter had testing done and I had to call for results and the doctor said everything fine, four days later I just wanted a copy of paperwork and another doctor said (looking at same results) she needed further testing. So two doctors looking at same results with two different answers? Then my daughter went to pick up order for testing and her paperwork and received two other patients paperwork! So we had two other patients information! I do not trust these doctors with my daughter! Never will we go there again!

Dr. Ticho took care of my daughter from age 6 until current (20). She had multiple eye problems and he was wonderful. He now cares for me. Always professional and informative. Wonderful staff also!!

Doctor Ticho is by far one of the best eye specialists I have had the pleasure of working with. I am a 61 year old male with Macular degeneration & glaucoma, too include cataracts. He has a team of highly trained surgical specialists that deal with children, children's with special needs too adults. He is incredible and I am damned lucky to have him as my eye specialist!

Had cataracts removed from my right eye. The left eye was done a month before and it was great. The right eye seems even better.

Dr. Ticho helped restore my vision. I no longer need glasses, only for reading small print. He is very patient & will explain everything he is doing.

Absolutely awful facility in Chicago Ridge. Techs didn't wash hands or introduce themselves. Cracked floor tiles, missing baseboards. Not a single pediatric table for infants. Used equipment out of briefcase on the floor. Rude assistant. Told me my insurance isn't accepted by most hospitals. I will never forgive myself for trying this place out. Outlets that don't work. Dark hallways and staff who don't know what they're doing. Dr. didn't wash his hands. Assistant told scheduling clerk that it doesn't matter where they schedule my infants surgery. Dr. chased after us into the parking lot when we left and didn't schedule a surgery. Health department should shut this place down. Absolutely disgusted. Also, adding to this, we were asked to put my 3 day old infant on the exam seat where people put their butts. Dr. Ticho asked my husband for his number which he used to give us a referral and to tell my husband this review was cruel. Very unprofessional. Absolutely awful facility in Chicago Ridge.

Very pleasant experience efficient nice staff beautiful medical center for eyes Dr. Tico was informative Reassuring very explanatory thank you This is now my eye dr

I have been with Dr. Ticho for 32 years...I am 32 years old now. He has done multiple surgeries on both my eyes. His staff is always nice and kind. you have to wait 90% of the time at your appointment but I think people should have more patience. Hes performed my cataract surgeries and has always been honest with me. I would recommend people to dr. Ticho without hesitation. I have been with Dr. Ticho for 32 years...I am 32 years old now.

Dr. Ticho did my daughter's cataract surgery in 2009. He did an excitement job!

He kept me waiting for an hour because of being short-staffed. Gave me card for free manicure in his new Beauty Spa where he removes tattoos with laser. Weird. Next appt., he had it set up so young girl assistants do all the screenings. At the end, you see him for results for 5 min. consult. Shabby way to practice.

This place should be avoided at all cost. $160 doctor visit that doesn’t include them printing out your actual prescriptions. That’s another $55. Ridiculous. They should be ashamed. We will not be back.

Dr Benjamin Ticho is an awesome eye doctor and surgeon. He was instrumental in helping me not only cope with my declining vision, but also helped me get accommodations on the job to address my low-vision disability. He suggested that I see Top-doc Dr Jennifer Lim at the U of I, and put me in touch with The Chicago Light House for the Blind. All these people and places came together and enabled me to get the best care ever....thanks Dr Ticho, you started the best changes in my eye care!

This doctor is absolutely horrendous and doesn't know what he was doing if it hit him in the face. It was recommended to have a ct scan for my nephew's eye because it was protruding out and he said it's his bone structure and that he will grow into if, not to worry about it. We ended up doing the scan and thank God we did. I am so repulsed by his mentality on things. Why wouldn't you want to take extra precautions on a baby who has his whole life in front of him.

So I recently brought my 3 month daughter there to be examined by dr. Ticho and it was the worst experience I have ever had with a pediatric specialist. I have had experience with a lot of pediatric specialist and he was literally the worst. He is rude, unprofessional, and has no personality once so ever. He treated my 3 month old as if she were an adult. Also he diagnosed her with one thing, before he even examined her. Then after he finally examined her he decided to diagnosis her with something totally unrelated to ophthalmology. Which she wound up in the hospital for 3 days because of his diagnosis, which was completely wrong and she was hospitalized because he was completely incompetent. Needless to say we will never return, and I am currently looking for another pediatric ophthalmologist. So I recently brought my 3 month daughter there to be examined by dr.

Dr. Ticho was competent during my 18 month old sons surgery despite arriving late for it. However at the follow up appointment to remove the stint in his tear duct we were the 5th appointment of the day at 9:45. Yet still were made to wait for just under 2 hours with a very anxious and frustrated child. Then when he walked into the room he thought he was removing stints in both eyes when we told him no it’s just one he then said the wrong eye only for me to tell him which eye it was. The entire “procedure” was 7 seconds total and was a 2 hour wait for a Dr who didn’t even know why we were there. Will never be back to this office. How are you a pediatric specialist and don’t understand that for pediatric patients you need to stay at least semi on time. And even beside that you should at least know why you’re walking into a patients room. Totally unprofessional and discourteous of our time and of my sons health.

He was fine in the beginning. But then for the past two appointments with my special needs daughter, he started assessing her sister that was joining us at the appointment. Umm...know your patient! And then the last time when I corrected him, he made an offhand remark about her "not looking like she had all these issues..." referring to my special needs daughter's chart. I was put off immediately after that and refuse to go to their practice again. He was fine in the beginning.

Ticho has been my eye specialist for my whole life, absoutely amazing doctor. Would most definitely recommend.

We had a great experience-would recommend him to anyone. And the nurses that took care of my daughter (and piggy) at Little company were wonderful!

He started seeing my son when he was about 3 yrs old with a “lazy eye”. They are great with kids and give them the time and attention they need. I would definitely recommend this office to anyone with kids.

Dr. Ticho was great He helped me with my eye !! Thank you for being so nice to me and my daughter! Your front desk is even nice too !! Thank you

I have seen the allegations against this doctor and personally don't believe it. Dr. Ticho was the eye doctor that saved my daughter's eyesight. She is able to see today because of him. He can be a little awkward but there is no way this man is capable of the atrocities he is being accused of. Do you really think you would wait almost 2 years to finally file a lawsuit against someone that accidentally operated on the wrong eye and then performed an impromptu surgery to fix it? The entire thing sounds suspicious. Clearly that woman is making it up to try and make money off of this doctor. I have seen the allegations against this doctor and personally don't believe it.

Dr.Ticho is a wonderful doctor and surgeon. He may have a little bit of dry humor in him but he really knows his stuff an that is what is most important. He has been great with my son since he was about 18 mo old. Has had two surgeries and they were both successful and he now has close to 20/20 vision.

Dr. Ticho is wonderful and extremely intelligent and kind-hearted. My daughter has been seeing ophthalmologists since she was born for the most part, and she’s had a few surgeries as young as three years old to remove chalazions. I decided to give Dr. Ticho a try as I wasn’t getting very much accomplished with her previous doctor and Dr. Ticho could even point out things about her medical history without me even telling him, such as her autoimmune issues. He actually made it easier and helped us get to the bottom of why she keeps getting recurring infections etc. From now on she will only see him for her eye issues. I can’t stress enough how great of a doctor he is. Awesome with all ages from pediatric to geriatric! Highly recommend. Dr. Ticho is wonderful and extremely intelligent and kind-hearted.

Great

Very poor "bed side manner". My son had surgery to correct a drifting eye. And Ticho operated on the normal eye. My son still has the drifting eye problem. On top of that, billing office tried to charge me and my insurance for the procedure. Didn't want to refund me my money that the insurance company had paid as well. When I called before procedure with questions, Ticho would not call back. It wasn't until I threatened to cancel the surgery did he call.

I wouldn't recommend him. He did surgery on my son's left eye. It was his right eye that needed the surgery. When questioned why he did that, Ticho said he was trying to make the left eye compensate for the right eye. My son still has his right eye drift. If I didn't know it, I wouldn't be able to tell he even had surgery. I need my eyes done, but I won't go to this guy. If he cannot even perform surgery on the correct eye, what's he doing as an eye doctor. He also wouldn't return calls prior to the surgery until I threatened to cancel the surgery. I should have.

I honestly wish I could give zero stars. This doctor was extremely polite on the surface but, obviously uncomfortable with me. I thought it a fluke the first time I saw him. But the second time he actually sent me to a colleague who's a person of color like myself. He was rude and made several off handed remarks. He couldn't even look me in the eye.

Dr. Ticho fixed my eyes at the age of 4. I am now 22 with 20/20 vision.

I also have to strongly disagree with the first comment. Dr. Ticho is my baby's surgeon and is extremely kind and professional. Excellent doctor overall. Highly recommend.

Great Doctor you want looking after your loved ones! Mine were two twin boys born 4 months to early at 24 weeks. He monitored their eyes both in and out of the hospital. Also my 8 month old has a cyst that needed removed and I wouldn't trust anyone else.

I would have to strongly disagree with the previous comment. He's been my eye doctor since I was literally, a newborn baby. He has done both of my surgeries and has been my doctor throughout my entire journey. Every time I come in, he pulls up a picture of me from 15 years ago. When you say "person of color", I'm not sure if you mean black but he isn't racist. I am also African American and maybe you took something too personal because Dr. T is a great doctor.

4 year old with re-occuring chalazion. His staff did thorough exam but when it was time for me to speak to the doctor, he seemed rushed. Suggested surgery if it didn't go away &stood up as if to leave- I started asking questions & he seemed bothered by it. Did not have a good bedside manner and I was very concerned when he said SURGERY and ANESTHESIA. I called office for more info on procedure and possibly a website they would recommend for procedure - nothing. They don't have that -too common

Receptionist Lisa is very rude and with her in the front line I will not be recommending anyone to your practice...... which is too bad because Dr. Ticho was highly recommended, but there are lots of well respected drs with a friendly helpful staff. My blood pressure is still boiling from dealing with her
