Dr. Nakatsuka was so gracious, kind, and compassionate. He has a great bedside manner and worked hard to assemble a team to get me the help I needed as I have other health issues that makes any surgery a significant risk. I was turned down for surgery from two other providers because of those risks. In fact I was turned down at Morain Eye Ctr at first. Dr Nakatsuka personally called me, twice, to try and work out a plan to help me. We live in Arizona, and due to my other health issues, it is not easy for me to travel long distances. Nevertheless he told me that if we were willing to make the trip he would do what he could to make it happen without guarantees. It worked! Thank you Dr. Nakatsuka from the bottom of my heart.

Dr Nakatsuka's clinical and interpersonal skills are top grade. He's knowledgeable and inspires confidence and trust.

I have a serious medical condition that will impact the success of recommended surgery. I need to talk to him about these considerations and need to do that. Didn't get a chance to. I think that Dr. Nakatsuka is skilled and knows what he's talking about. I also appreciate his bedside manner and kindness. He explained my condition and answered my questions in a kind way and thorough way. The big drawback is the amount of waiting time. His schedule, in my opinion, is too packed. I had an appointment in December that I had to reschedule and it took until May to get in.

Over an hour wait to see the doctor
The MD was great it was just the long long wait and no one came in to explain why the ongoing wait until over an hour had passed than they said doctor would be in shortly and than it was still 30 minutes or more that went by before doctor came in. Just poor communication.
I was looking for a second opinion. He provided detailed explanations. Plus I love the University Health System. I will stay with him as my Glaucoma Dr.

My partner has Alzheimers and he told the doctor that. I introduced myself. I was sitting in the chair provided to me. The doctor talked so fast and never spoke to me. My partner did not understand anything he said. I caught most of it. He was eager to leave the room fast. He said his surgery scheduler would be in. She was very efficient and helpful. Maybe the seating could be changed so the doctor could see both the patient and there family member. Also it would be nice if the doctor would not talk like he is in a rush.

Everyone I speak with
Best eye doc ever!! "Fellow" very good also...

Dr Nakatsuka promised to call me to make an appointment of the surgery of my eyes last week, but he did not call me.I was so disappointed.
I'm only saying fair on the recommendation because it's too difficult communicating with the actual office. I wouldn't subject a friend to that.

The Dr was very quick to get me to the specific specialist I needed and has even called me to follow up on certain aspects also. Huge plus
The only issue I have was with Dr. Barlow's lack of an explanation that my glaucoma seemed to be progressing, and that's why he was referring me to Dr. Nakatsuka. I would have kept an appointment 3 months earlier (and hence 3 months earlier treatment had I known)!!!
