Richard Tipperman's Online Review Report Card

Just had my first cataract operation this Monday the 25th , it was a great experience. The staff and technicians are amazing and took care of me like I was their grandfather. It was a great success and I thank all the staff and Dr Tipperman for my new brighter sight.

Had my first visit with Dr Tipperman on Monday the 11th of December, his staff was so friendly and caring, I knew I was at the best place for me. The Dr was very down to earth and spoke to me about my procedure in terms that I understood. He didn’t had me off to someone else. This is a first class operation. They treat you not your folder.

I can wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Tipperman for cataract surgery. I had both eyes done but had a rather complicated case in one eye. He took on the challenge, and the result was 20/20 vision. Don’t be afraid! The whole experience is pleasant. I highly recommend the PanOptix tri-focal lens. After 50 years, I am completely free of glasses or contacts. You need to pay a small upcharge for the tri-focal lens but what is more important than crystal clear vision at close, medium and far distances? No more reading glasses! You can read road signs again. And see your computer perfectly You won’t regret it.

DR IS V GOOD. HOWEVER ITS A LONG WAIT TO SEE HIM WHILE IN THE OFFICE. ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO CONNECT BY PHONE. GOOD LUCK.

A very happy patient! I was referred to Dr. Tipperman by a Retina Specialist at PENN in Oct of 2020. Pre-Cataract Surgery my corrective vision prescription was -12. My vision has never been good. I also had severe eye trauma 20 years ago, which may have been the reason for early onset cataracts. I visited Dr. Tipperman for the consultation and he was fantastic. And to my amazement, Dr. Tipperman said I would have 20/20 vision, and may only need reading glasses. To this point I spent my life, when not wearing contact lenses or glasses - virtually blind. And now I was totally and rapidly loosing sight. Not a good situation at 46 years old. So, I scheduled one eye surgery to be done at a time. The first procedure was successful and the surgery was pretty much a breeze. I could not wait for the second surgery date. 2 months later after the post op healing, which was no big deal, I now have 20/20 vision and can see for miles. Life is so much more colorful! Dr. Tipperman and his Staff are marvelous!

Dr Tipperman is the best! 5 star all the way! I only wish that he could also be my primary care doctor. He also has a wonderful caring staff. I highly recommend this doctor!

Dr. Tipperman was highly recommended. Unfortunately, he is egotistical and his office was geared to move people in and out as fast as possible. I asked questions about the different types of lenses. I felt confident in his suggestion. Dr. T and I decided he'd do my surgery. The next morning, he called me and said he decided not to take me as a patient because I asked questions and he thinks I'd continue to ask questions afterwards. I was devastated! I asked him to reconsider but he refused and then.... he hung up on me!

Dr Tipperman did both of my eyes for cataracts at the beginning of this year. (I was told by another doctor I would most probably go blind) I can see perfectly now! Dr Tippermen had such a calming and caring manner - I am SO happy I found him!! Highly recommend!!!

I had a very complicated cataract form in my right eye after being treated with radiation at the Wills Eye Hospital (the best) for uveal melanoma. The cataract had left me completely blind in my right eye-- with a dead tumor. I am writing this less than 24 hours after my cataract surgery with Dr. Tipperman and my vision is 20/20. It's incredible. I couldn't be more thankful and appreciative of the amazing doctors and Dr. Tipperman has given me my sight back. And no pain whatsoever. Thank you!

Dr. Tipperman is just an excellent physician. Energetic and personable, Dr. Tipperman is extremely capable. My cataract surgery was completely successful. He is easy to talk with and communicates a real caring for his patient. You can't go wrong with Dr. Tipperman.
