I have gone to tow doctors who have said I am a good candidate. One was too expensive and the one with the reasonable price which is the one that I have heard of the most has had 17 malpractice lawsuits.

Answer
What is a "reasonable price" when the risk is your sight? 17 lawsuits is a lot, even by high-volume refractive surgery standards. Are you willing to take this kind of risk to save a few dollars?

These are your eyes, don't cheap out on your vision. It's one thing if you buy a cheap LCD TV and the pixels go bad - you can take it back and exchange it for a new one. But if you have a bad outcome with eye surgery you're stuck with that for life.

Probably the most important decision someone who is considering LASIK must make is what surgeon to choose. Although I do not perform LASIK, I have created a document for my cataract patients to help them in choosing a surgeon. The article can be viewed by clicking this link:

The advice in this document can be applied to choosing any surgeon in any specialty, not just cataract surgeons.

Best LASIK surgeon in the Philadelphia area?

Jazelle

I'm looking to find the best vision corrective surgeon (LASIK, PRK...etc) in the Philadelphia area. I am willing to Travel to surrounding states- NY, NJ, Delaware, etc. Money is no object, because I am willing to pay top dollar for the best available. After all- these are my eyes and we only get 1 pair! 

I just moved to Philly, so it has been hard finding good references and such. I have a consult at Kremer Eye this week, but I want to get several consultations.

Thanks!

Answer
Bar none, the best place for LASIK is Wills Laser Vision at Princeton, in Princeton, NJ.

They have the latest equipment and all of their doctors have very impressive credentials. They do give free consults, so I definitely suggest taking advantage of that.

They cost a little more, but as you said you get what you pay for (I never understand people who use Groupons and whatnot for laser eye surgery as if it were dance lessons or something).

Good luck! Here's their info:
