Jerry Weinberg, M.D.

Doctor removed the glaucoma from my sister’s eye and it wasn’t a simple pocedure because of other health issues that she has. We were searching for a doctor willing and be able to do so for a few months and the only one we found was Dr. Weinberg. He did a wonderful job and we all are very greatful!

My eye exam with Dr. Weinberg was a bizarre experience. I happened to be holding a bag with a button on it reading «Union Worker.» At the start of the exam, he immediately decided to seize on this and grilled me about my political views the whole time. I like to talk politics in general, but this wasn’t a conversation; it was a one-​sided interrogation. At one point, he actually demanded to know if I was «proud to be an American»! He was one step away from asking me if I was now or had ever been a member of the Communist Party. I tried to answer him politely but generally and didn’t respond at all to his most aggressive comments (example: «I heard union thugs beat some people up the other day, but I guess you’re proud of that…»). At the end of the exam, I made the mistake of asking him one question in return (the only time I initiated any conversation with him): In a friendly tone, I asked if he supports unions. He told me why he doesn’t, and I said I support my union because it works to stop cuts to public education, and I’m a public educator. I thought it would be an, «OK, well, let’s agree to disagree, but nice to meet you» sort of ending to the whole encounter. But no. He told me he thinks we (all public educators?) don’t do a good job because we’re largely unqualified, and we should all be focusing on getting the «illegals» out of the schools. I was taken aback. I didn’t really know how to respond and started to leave. He followed me into the waiting room saying, «Enjoy your progressive agenda and what you’re doing to this country! Know that you have received an exam from a qualified professional who deserves his job because he is actually qualified.»
Dr. Weinberg may very well be a *qualified* optometrist; however, he is clearly not always *professional* in his demeanor and behavior. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to return, and I can’t recommend his practice.

Doctor Weinberg is a very good Ophthalmology, he did a surgery on a close relative and she is doing very well. He has taken good care of her eyes condition, he is caring and very well experienced.
