I am a caregiver to my husband who can't walk. Before going to Mid Florida Eye I asked if they could accommodate a wheel chair (some places can't) and they said they could. They said my husband should have cataract surgery in one of his eyes. I was happy to know they could help my husband. We went back again and one of the ladies asked if my husband could move from the wheel chair to the bed unassisted. He can't. I was planning in my mind to get a PT to help safely move him to put the doctors mind at ease and they won't do this. They said they were referring my husband to another doctor who had beds that could be raised and lowered. The referral won't do the surgery either. I know that nobody wants to be sued but it is heart wrenching for me to know there is help out there and nobody wants to help.
