need surgeon for macular pucker

Can anyone recommend a top surgeon for Macular Pucker vitrectomy (preferrably in NYC, or possibly south Florida)? I've had consultations with two "top" doctors. The first doctor, which I saw at Manhattan Eye and Ear, was rated one of the top retina surgeons in the US, but his bedside manner was non-existent. He was rude and made me feel stupid every time I asked a question. The second doctor from Columbia Presbyterian, was very nice but did not impress me as having much experience.

Did anyone reply to your post? I'm unable to... answer your question as I am in the same situation only on the West Coast, Portland Oregon. I feel so alone!

I did not receive any responses. However, I found what I hope is a good doctor at Vitreous Retina Macula Consultants of NY. Telephone 212-861-9797. they are in NY, but perhaps if you call them they can recommend a specialist in your area. I know what you are going through and wish you the best. Jane
