Dr. Marc Howard Shomer

The office and staff are very professional. Dr. Shomer was thorough. You can tell when a physician is invested in their profession. I came to them after my eye doctor recommended that I see a specialist right away! Dr Shomer's office fit me in that day. The sudden change my eyesight had an immediate concern. I appreciate it!

I've seen Dr Shomer for 3, I waited 6 hrs in the surgery center, and now my vision is worse than it was before the surgery. years, but a botched cataract surgery changed my mind. The lens was the wrong size, Laser was to be used, it wasn't don't trust!!!

I was very impressed with the office staff and especially Dr. Shomer Professional and great bed side manner...Highly recommend this MD!! 5 STARS!!!

In early 2021, my wife was having really big troubles with her vision that seemed to be related to her prescription but a change did not help, we were referred to Dr. Shomer by our doctor and we could not have been more blessed!! Dr Shomer was awesome in figuring out her actual issue and performed the cataract surgery early this year with great results. But most importantly to me was Dr Shomer's, his nurse's and his office staff's care within the office. My wife has very significant PTSD issues so that being in an office waiting room is difficult and having someone that close to examine her is extremely difficult for her. So the doctor and the staff would have her wait in the car until a room was available so that she could walk right in, Dr Shomer and his nurses would constantly talk to her about what they were doing during examinations, talk to her before coming up behind, etc. and that was a ton off of her mind. When it came to the surgery, Dr Shomer literally laid out the room for her, where people would be and when they would be around her so she could always be prepared. He also talked the surgery center's staff ahead of time and got them on the same page. It was as awesome as it could possibly be. And for that (for ALL that) I am forever grateful to Dr Shomer AND we would highly recommend Dr Shomer for you & your family. He and his staff are awesome at what they do and are just GOOD people, God knows we need more of these in our world these days!! Thank Dr Shomer, thank you staff, thank Archibald Surgery Center.

Excellent staff and Dr Highly recommend

What a blessing to have found Dr. Shomer. He's very thorough, very professional and friendly. His staff is awesome, office is clean. I highly recommend if you're looking for a good experience.

Dr. Shomer is very professional and explained my case clearly for me. Few months ago, I moved to my country. My problem is that they receptionist told me that all the information about my case would be sent to me via email which never happened. I am pretty sure that there’s a spelling mistake in my email that made them sent it to somebody else. So, please if any one from this clinic is reading this comment contact me ASAP because my doctor in my country need my examination results.

I had cataract surgery on both eyes with excellent results. Dr Shomer is very professional and I had complete confidence in his ability and surgical skill. He has a wonderful “bedside manner” and answers all questions about the surgery. His staff is also kind and competent. I highly recommend Dr Shomer for all your ophthalmology needs!

I had cataracts removed on both eyes by Dr Shomer and I couldn’t be more pleased! I have only positive things to say about Dr Shomer and his competent staff. I highly recommend this doctor!

If you are searching for a qualified Ophthalmologist to perform surgery to remove cataracts with intraocular (IOL) lens placement, STOP right here, look no further and book your appointment now with Dr. Marc Shomer. I have just completed two surgeries (right and left eye) to have cataracts removed and IOLs placed by Dr. Shomer. I would not even consider recommending anyone else other than Dr. Shomer for this surgery. Before going any further, I am compelled to mention that I am a Registered Nurse practicing for years in a hospital environment. My only point here is that I have had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of doctors in a variety of specialties. In the end, I feel confident to tell you that Dr. Shomer is clearly among the best physicians I have seen concerning both technical competence and bedside manner. If you are not aware, cataract surgery is performed on only one eye - with a two-week minimum recovery period before surgery on the other eye is considered. In my case, I was fortunate to arrange the surgery on each eye within this two-week lag between each eye. Dr. Shomer's staff was extremely helpful to arrange scheduling in advance for the numerous preop and postop appointments with his office as well as the surgery center. There was a lot of information to absorb and comprehend in order to reach decisions of the type of IOL lenses to be placed and optional technical equipment to be used during the surgery. Dr. Shomer provided very clear documentation to explain these options. But perhaps most important is his superior bedside manner with a calm and humble ability to clearly answer any questions we had. For a relatively quick surgery, there is a LOT involved to reach the decisions and make arrangements. These surgeries are performed with sedation which left me barely conscious and aware of what is happening during the procedure - this is intentional by the way, as the physician needs to have the patient able to respond to commands during the surgery. The point here, is that I was aware of Dr. Shomer's caring bedside manner during the surgery. He was calm and confident - as a result I was the same. At the preop appointments, he took time to answer all questions. At the postop appointments he was VERY thorough to examine my eyes and ask questions to determine if everything was 'ok'. So if you are considering cataract surgery - go to Dr. Shomer, nobody else. And do it as soon as you can. The results are staggering, nothing short of miraculous. I simply can't explain to you the before/after difference in crisp clarity of vision, brilliance of the light, and amazing variety of colors that I did not realize before the surgeries. My only regret is having waited so long before getting it done.

Excellent experience. Dr. Shomer saved my eye sight!! I had retinal swelling and cataract and he gave me an injection and surgery. Thankfully, he fixed me.

He's the best. I saw hime before getting new glasses because I'd been told by my optomestrist that I had cataracts. Dr. Shomer diagnosed them, then performed the surgery to remove them. IT WAS TRANSFORMATIVE! Now I can see again. He did a great job. He's very thorough, he follows up, he cares -- what more could you want? His staff is terrific, too. He's the best.

Great Doctor. I had spent 3 weeks trying to find someone who would see my 17 yr old son. Everyone I contacted said my son needed to be seen by a pediatric ophthalmologist because he wasn't 18 yet (less than 2 months before his bday) and ALL of them said they weren't taking new patients with my insurance. MEAN WHILE, my son was suffering.. Dr. Shomer squeezed in my son within 45 minutes after hearing all my son and I had been through. He is a great doctor, listened to everything my son had to say and took his time explaining to both of us his options to treat his eye. I cannot say enough about this great person. Great Doctor.

Outstanding! Dr. Shomer is a very nice caring doctor. He removed cysts from my eyelids, they were causing discomfort like something was in my eye. After removal, I'm back to normal thanks to him.

Excellent MD care & service thank you to Dr. & staff ,I highly recommend to all.

Can't say enough good things about Dr. Shomer and his team. Great doc, great technicians, and great front office staff. You won't be disappointed. Very customer service oriented, and exceptional credentials.

Dr. Marc Shomer and his staff are diligent professionals who have provided me with outstanding care and I can recommend them to anyone needing ophthalmologic treatment.

The results of all such surgeries have been excellent and the in-office follow-ups have been timely. Furthermore, Dr. Shomer always makes sure to take time to provide good information about my eyes, their issues, and the treatment options available and to answer all of my questions.

I recently brought my girlfriend to Dr Shomer's office to have her eyes examined before starting a medication which could affect them. When we couldn't find the location ("North" Mountain Ave and Mountain Ave are not the same) the receptionist was very helpful even after I called several times for directions and to tell them we would arrive a little late. The office is very clean, has a peaceful atmosphere and the staff is polite. While there, we also asked if they could perform a routine eye exam for correction/prescription and they were happy to do it during our appointment for a very reasonable fee. We've been there twice and each time was great. Dr. Shomer is very polite and good with his patients. We are very happy with their service. Thank you.

I have been going to Dr Shomer for years and he is so kind and caring. One time I was having a problem with my vision and Dr. Shomer fit me in right away and needed to spend extra time with me. I now know why great doctors like him run late sometimes. When I needed him he was there for me. Occasionally I need to wait but I am good with it.

Dr. Shomer may be great, but sitting in an uncomfortable full waiting room for 2 plus hours in very noisy uncomfortable seats elbow to elbow with other patients doesn't strike me as quality patient care. Granted my first appointment, but not a very good impression. Also, has staff doing procedures I would expect a physician to order and do himself. 2 hours past my appointment time I left...scary....I left before I met Dr. Shomer....real bad vibe. I said I would reschedule.....I DON'T THINK SO!
