My appointment was confirmed by phone call 2 days prior and I was assured that there would be no issues, and that my insurance would be accepted. Upon entering I was not greeted, I was gawked at and immediately judged. The employee pictured, took one glance at my insurance card and rudely said, WE DON'T TAKE THAT HERE, BUT WE HAVE GOOD DEALS HERE! Nevermind that I had an intial appointment for an eye exam and to be fitted for contacts. She spoke over me, and made condescending comments as I tried to speak. She asked if there was an E in my name 5 times as if to try to get a rise out of me. But I kindly responded in the same kind tone each time I was asked. I tried to explain that I had a confirmed appointment, and that I was told that there wouldn't be an issue with my insurance because it had been accepted for other people who went to this location. But she wasn't having or hearing that. Horrible experience, vile employee. Never Again!!!

Those I talked with today could benefit from a training class on how to provide good customer service. The third time I called I was placed on a ten minute hold then told I would get a call back in ten minutes. I finally called the office again at the 20 minute mark. Is the office understaffed?

Their billing is ridiculous. Multiple calls and attempts to reach someone that actually knows what…read morethey are talking about and many times being told why the optometrist chose to bill as medical instead of vision is because they said I had symptoms of dry eye and that was a medical diagnosis. Cost me hundreds of dollars instead of being just a normal vision appointment with a simple deductible. I haven't even been able to fill my prescription for over a month because of this billing issue and I will not fill it with these scam artists! To continue they also blatantly lied and said they are in network for my insurance when in truth they are out of network costing me even more money.

The manager looked at my insurance with me to make sure I was getting the best deal possible (I had to choose between using my insurance for my glasses or contacts). I'd recommend this place to anyone.

Tacoma Family Eyecare is located in the optical section of the Tacoma Costco (37th Street). They…read morehave appointment booking capability from their website, however, I was already at Costco when I decided to pop in to make a new patient appointment. They were able to get me in within the same week! The receptionist was helpful and friendly, with the ability to answer my questions regarding insurance and what the eye exam entailed. I opted for an appointment that would give me both my glasses and contact prescription. The day of my appointment, I filled out a quick questionnaire to establish my care as a patient, and one of their techs performed the initial eye exam ($40 out of pocket, covered by certain insurances, but a very important eye exam as it checks your eye health). Dr. Kathy Kim was the optometrist I saw the day of my appointment. She began with asking if I had my glasses with me ('dOh, I forgot to bring them!) but I was able to tell her the power of each eye from a prescription from 1.5 years ago before I moved to Tacoma. Th usual eye exam commenced, with having to read the letters with one eye, and then the other. Dr. Kim mentioned the slight astigmatism that I've heard I've had for a while, but hadn't been corrected by other optometrists/ophthalmologists. She gave me the option to do the regular contacts I was accustomed to, but also suggested trying toric contact lenses to adjust for the astigmatism. Dr. Kim explained that these type of lenses would reduce squinting, and help with driving at night, reducing glare. Her receptionist was able to give me trials for both the regular contacts with my updated prescription (same day), and ordered trial torics which came in several days later. What I loved about Dr. Kim was her demeanor. She was professional, and able to build a great rapport during the quick 15 minute exam! She allowed me to look at the eye health screen (your vision is priceless, it's worth the $40!) and let me know that they have a 90 day follow up policy to have the lenses adjusted, should I not love the trials before ordering my contact supply. 5/5 highly recommend! (P.S. I don't believe you need a Costco membership to utilize this clinic in Costco).

Not covered by insurance means families that can't afford it pay, or go elsewhere. It all feels like a money grab! Then, I decided I would still see Dr. Kvamme and the clinic staff didn't pay attention and booked me with the wrong doctor...Kvamme isn't even in the clinic on the day they scheduled me. They had ALL the previous text messages to know who I wanted to see and still got it wrong. They clearly didn't even look at my record to see who to schedule me with.
