What happens at a Lasik Consultation?
Lasik University
Hi Folks, let me give you a brief overview of what actually will take place as you arrive for a free lasik consultation. Really the Lasik consultation is a chance for you the potential lasik patient to get a feel for the center you are visiting. The appointment usually lasts from 15 to 30 minutes depending on how busy that particular center is that day. Some centers will keep to an organized spaced out schedule where each potential lasik patient is seen on time while other centers will have a waiting room jam packed full of people who will sometimes wait up to over 1 hour to be seen by a patient counselor. It is not uncommon to also have customers walk out due to really long wait times.
When your name is called you will meet with a Patient Counselor who really is a salesperson. On your first visit you will almost never meet with a Doctor so don't be fooled into thinking a patient counselor is a doctor. Patient Counselors have almost no medical training. They are trained by Center Managers who train them to sell the Lasik Procedure to any candidate. (not yet complete, please check back
