It's very well
She is a good female doctor. I would like to more female doctors in the future. I don't see many who wants to be an Eye Doctor. Keep up the good Dr. Urias. Congratulations on your teaching award. !!!
Satisfactory
Surgical staff and doctor in surgery were great.
I found the entire medical staff to be very matter of fact. I think at times the doctor didn't know why I was referred to the practice. The entire visit was very generic. Nothing felt specific.
Resourceful
Dr. Urias is a very competent and compassionate physician. She explained her plan of care and follow up care at a level that I can understand and follow.
Follow-up for chronic condition & Dr Urias took time to review continuing plan of care & updated prescriptions
Excellent care received by everyone.
Excellent
No Dr see a lot of patients not knowing what they're going to be getting into and that causes a lot of delays. First time I've was at Eye clinic was an emergency and I know I blew the schedule up when I was there very pleased with the doctor and her attention and friendliness.
Dr Urias was excellent. She was very patient and listened to me. She is the Greatest.
Dr Urias is not my regular Doctor. I took the first available appointment since there was something wrong with my eye. Turns out that my left eye pressure was through the roof. Dr. Urias took a long time to listen to me and make an accurate diagnosis. I could tell that she's really in the medical field to help people. So genuine and warm. She put me at ease immediately and gave me a regimen of eye drops so my eye pressure decreases. She asked me to follow up in 2 days and was just so amazing. She's the best Opthalmologist that I've seen in these 10 years of battling this condition
Dr. Urias is very good.
After a difficult ordeal obtaining effective eye care, I left believing I had found in the right place to get needed treatment.
Dr. Urias is a very knowledgeable, compassionate, professional, and caring physician. She listens attentively, gives thorough yet simplistic explanations, and, and takes time to provide excellent care. I have no problem or qualms In traveling to Atlanta to have her provide my care. Dr. Elizabeth Urias is a definite asset to Emory Healthcare. BRAVO!!!
Always a good Experience with Emory.
Dr Urias was much more caring than other Drs at other clinics. Very attentive.
Dr. Urias clearly explained everything and provided information regarding treatment and expectations for my condition going forward. Her communication was friendly and flawless.
Dr Urias was excellent. She was very caring; answered all my questions and make the experience very positive.
My sister will be scheduling with her soon!
Wonderful doctor !
I trust Dr. Urias judgment on finding the best solution for my problem.
Excellent
Dr Urias is the greatest. She took her time with me and listened. She explained to me what was going on with my eyes and her recommendation for treatment. Please let her know how much I appreciate her. Thank You
Outstanding
Although the physician was qualified and experienced and even pleasant, no comments were made to include my thoughts about my care.
The provider, Dr. Uriah, spent the whole time complaining about how terrible the recovery is for patients who have tragedies. AE retinal detachment surgery. I've had that procedure done seven times and I'm committed to being a patient that follows Dr.'s directions. I felt that her complaining in front of the patient was very unprofessional and very poor taste. It also showed a big lack of sympathy for her patients. I understand that all she does is corny as and she's an excellent surgeon, but her bedside manner needs some work.
Dr Urias provides exceptional care.
Dr Urias is courteous, compassionate, and extremely competent
I would highly recommend Emory Eye Clinic. I'm glad that you list the disclaimer that in order to give and receive excellent care and a comprehensive examination, it will probably take a total of 2 to 4 hours. If oEach patient needs,wants, and expects excellent care, and the only way that that level of care can be obtained is that it requires time. Dr. Elizabeth Urias is very knowledgeable, professional, personable, and caring.
Excellent physician
Dr Urias shook my hand. She looked me directly and d sad he spoke to me respectfully Obviously you can't teach that: but the "Therapeutic Bond" Is built or destroyed in mere minutes-I was supremely disappointed by my overall experience at ESJH.., BUT DR URIAS REDEEMED THE ENTIRE EXPERIENCE
Dr Urias is wonderful. I could not ask for better care. Her communication is excellent and clinical skills perfect.
Dr. Urias Is an amazing physician. She is a gifted communicator.
Dr Urias is very thorough and professional. As a clinician myself (PhD) and a member of the American Collrge of Healthcare Executives (ACHE) I am extremely critical of physician competence. I was VERY IMPRESSED and completely satisfied with Dr. Urias.
See previous comment. I feel Dr. Urias is a knowledgeable doctor but her ability to be on time needs a lot of improvement
Dr Elizabeth Urias out standing in patient care and knowledge in subject
Dr. Urais explained that I had 20/20 vision and things looked really good. I will now just need to complete yearly checkups.
Once I got in to see doc, things all went well
First time seeing this, Dr was very pleased, extremely polite and pleasant
Good
Very good
Good
Dr. Urias is awesome
Seem very cocky no concern for anyone's time but herself. Waiting three hours in an extra hour because we came early to make sure we were on time there has to be a way they can communicate With the patient that they are running 2 to 3 hours behind time so we can delay our arrival times we expressed this to them. I had to teach a class and had to text my team to let them know. I was unable to work based on this delay and felt like a hostage in the room waiting for the doctor to arrive to see me. My wife drove me. She had a conference call schedule. She also unfortunately missed her training conference call that was scheduled for that timeframe. It is stressful and enough, going to cancer and having to do all the steps to stay on top of everything and to show up we appreciate Emory for everything that they have done through this journey.This department definitely needs an overhaul every time. I'm there. It seems to be an issue.
I believed this poor ophthalmologist was extremely busy and did the best she could to
Dr Urias is, in a word, an amazing specialist. She listens very well, responds to questions and is very thorough when talking about issues with my eye.
Excellent care from doctor. Fast analysis of issue and treatment explanations.
Dr Urias was wonderful. Provided excellent care.
Great follow-up visit with Dr Urias, with continuing plan of care & ongoing monitoring
Dr Arapali was very thorough yesterday and very kind with caring for me. My cornea was a big issue and she made it possible for me to see Dr Ur?as immediately. Dr Ur?as was extremely thorough, patient and professional. She went above and beyond diagnosing my issue.
Doctors was thorough and very encouraging.
Dr. Urias - thank you - you saw me though this journey and I reached my destination - thank you so much for taking such good care of my eyes and me. You are truly the best
Good is good

She is very knowledgeable about my case and was concerned about my well-being. Thank-you.
Dr Urias is amazing She listens to every question, responds accurately and clearly, and has a lovely disposition! I plan on having her do the cataract surgery on my other eye instead of at my other eye, doctors office. She's also an amazing surgeon I had trouble with my left eye for a long time, over three months, and after she had done DMEK, I could see again!
Dr. Urias & the ENTIRE Staff were VERY Professional, Caring, Competent & Compassionate during & after my cataract surgery!

Dr. Urias takes time to listen and explain why she recommends certain procedures to remedy my corneal edema. I appreciate that I don't feel rushed and she takes time to answer all of my questions.
This was my first post-op visit following my cataract surgery.I am pleased with the outcome of my surgery and will recommend Dr. Urias to my family and others who might need this procedure.
Dr. Urias is on top of everything!

Dr. Urias is excellent. Period.
Dr Urias is always attentive & engaged
Dr. Urias was very informative and explained things very well.
Good experience
This eye doctor was great. Genuinely caring, professional, and quick with analysis and decisions.
Dr. Urias is a good listener, appears thorough and pleasant. My only complaint, and it's not a complaint really, is the delay between appointment time and meeting with the doctor. There are some health conditions I would think that this type of delay would be uncomfortable for a patient.
Excellent listener and knowledegable
Good
Dr.Urias was very knowledgeable and compassionate.I felt that I was in "good hands".
That was the post-op visit so it lasted about 5 minutes after waiting for more than 2 hours. Doctor didn't ask patient if he had any questions or concerns as it should.
Very thorough. Considerant. Kind. Knowledge.
I think she was in a hurry and did not spend as much time as she normally would have.
Dr. Urias was very professional in treating me with care and concern. She explain my problem in the way I could understand. Therefore, the decision making was less stressful and easier to make a decision.
Great
Yes, she helped me so much.
Dr. Urias cares about me and healing mt eye ulcer. I pray that all of the financial assistance goes through for us.
Simply due to the wait time and slow response on the portal I would not easily recommend Dr. Urias. She is a good doctor but I'd rather see someone else who si equally good but values my time
My experience was pleasantly positive
Good
If I could give excellent!
I was relieved that continuing along with what zi had been doing was fine.
Dr Urias explained my condition in detail and the proposed action plan
Dr. Urais was the most comforting Dr. I have seen at Emory, and there have been several. Manners and grace supersede everything else, full stop.
Chilled exam room, excessive wait time but not informed by staff. My questions were only answered very briefly, not fully.
Great Doctor. Very professional!!
Can't say enough about my surgeon, Dr Urias. So thoughtful. So thorough. So personable. So professional.
She was excellent with explaining everything
I was very impressed at her knowledgeability and willingness to hear me. I felt understood and feel that she will do everything in her power to help with my care
I would recommend the doctor but tell anyone who will listen to avoid this unit - I'm currently searching for an alternative
Dr. Iris is wonderful. She discussed my history and asked specific questions related to my current eye problems. She was able to tell me what the condition I have is and the probable underlying cause. She explained what options were available depending on how well my vision was after treatment.
Dr, Uria was excellent with the attention, knowledg,time and consideration.
Eye doctor conducted a thorough exam, asked probing but not intrusive questions and was thorough in explaining recommendations for treatment and clear in explaining to return in a month for follow up and eye dilation. She offered dilation at visit but I was concerned about driving in heavy track with potentially blurry eyes.
Dr. Urias was very personable, professional, and knowledgeable. She thoroughly discussed my medical history, administered the eye exam, and recommended some changes to my medications. Dr. Urias discussed 3 options that I would need to consider. Although none of the options are available at Emory, she explained each option in detail. She exemplified a caring and helpful demeanor. I felt at very ease with her. The nurse/technician inserted my bandage contact lenses without any difficulties. She also exhibited a willing spirit and friendly disposition. Although I don't live In the Atlanta area, I have no problem In traveling for my follow-up appointment in 3 months. Great visit from beginning to end.
Very impressed with urias this was my first visit with her and I've switched to her replacing kim
