Maureen C. Considine, OD
616 Bloomfield Ave,
West Caldwell, NJ

Dr. Considine is very personable. She takes the time to diagnose, understand your condition, and provide the best treatment possible. I’ve seen her a handful of times over the past six months due to conjunctivitis and dry eyes. It’s always a pleasure to see her and she makes me feel confident that my eyes will continue to improve and feel more comfortable as time goes on. I’ve been to other eye doctors and it’s no comparison to Northern NJ Eye Institute. I would highly recommend Dr. Considine, specifically.

Best ophthalmologist I have ever worked with. Very insightful and direct with helpful advice. Our whole family goes to her.

I have never met a medical professional as human, caring and knowledgeable as Dr. Considine. Fantastic bedside manner! If you are looking for an eye doctor, she is the one!

I came in as a new patient-- the office was efficient and Maureen Considine was extremely nice--- I felt like I was in very capable, experienced hands. Headed back in a few weeks for a follow-up.

She is a very kind doctor. I saw her as my regular doctor, Dr. Crane, had to cancel his appointments. I highly recommend Northern NJ Eye Institute overall - efficient and friendly staff.

She is exceptional. The entire staff and the offices in South Orange are excellent.

This is a very conflicted review because, on one hand, the medical care is excellent. I would send my parents here if they needed serious medical eye care. On the other hand, I have never been to the office when it did not take 3 hours for a 30 minute eye appointment. Many of us are working professionals, parents, or simply people who cannot devote an entire afternoon to wait for a routine eye exam. It's an administrative shortcoming that could be simply resolved by booking people with realistic treatment windows. If you can't see someone until 3pm, don't book their appointment for 1pm. I saw them chastise someone for being 10 minutes late, while I was (and they were) expected to wait over two hours. It's just not practical, and it's unfortunate, because it's a great medical facility. If you are in need of serious medical eye care, are a retiree, or simply can wait an entire afternoon, absolutely go here. If you just need a check-up, this is not necessarily the best choice.
