UIC Medical Center Ophthalmology
1855 W Taylor St,
Chicago, IL

Be ready to wait to get accommodated over 4 hours! Tried to schedule an appointment , called before 4th of July next available appointment only next year in January?! No specialists available to treat people with their vision it’s unprofessional. It’s our eyes!

This place has great doctors who the University (run by corrupt administrators) likes to overbook. Most patients at this public hospital are on medicare or Medicaid so they are trying to push in as many patients as possible to bill the federal government at highest costs possible and so they can pad their salaries. So expect to wait a long time to see the doctor. And don’t complain because no one cares. They will just pretend they care.

Hey, it don't get any better than Dr. Elmer Tu. How Dr. Tu sees so many patients, and gives each patient a small but accurate bit of his expertise is amazing. Yes, there may be a wait period, but those patients complaining just don't understand Dr. Tu's patient load. Dr. Tu has protected my vision on several occasions; stop complaining and rest assured that Dr. Tu will rescue and protect your vision!
