Told me I had a…read morecondition that my last Doctor (from another very busy eye surgery place in Spokane) had missed. Answered all of my questions and corrected my prescription. I left there feeling like I finally found a good eye doctor. My wait was 45 minutes past my appointed time, but they had quite a few severely disabled folks being seen and that made them run behind. Seems to be the norm for the larger doctor's offices anyway, so it wasn't a big deal to me. You do have to have patience in these places. I got to watch TV while I waited so that helped pass the time. The facility was exceptionally clean and well maintained. Staff at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. They have a high call volume and the lobby was quite full, so that told me they're quite busy which means: very good doctors!

I got there at 11 am and had all my forms completed. The girl gave me a packet and told me to go sit in section D. From 11:05 to 11:50 am nobody acknowledged me and nobody told me they were running behind. I waited and waited. I did not end up going to my appointment because I did not have another hour to go and sit around. Terrible place - they were not like this but they were bought out and now run by a different group. Go somewhere else. I am hoping they do not bill my insurance for this since I did not leave anywhere past the waiting room. The girls who came out did not apologize, did not take accountability, and just stared at me when I asked why I was not notified of the delays.

I had LASIK here after many years of thinking about it. I was sick and tired of cleaning my glasses…read moreevery ten minutes, and contacts eventually made my eyes miserable. Doctors check everything out and make sure you are physically ready for surgery, as well as mentally. They explain everything that happens and will go in depth if you want. The day of surgery, the team took great care of me, making me very comfortable awaiting my turn. The procedure was professionally handled, and efficiently completed. It was also effective as I now have 20/15, coming from 20/50. So no more squinting to read road signs! And I get to wear my sunglasses whenever(if you have to wear glasses, you know this is a big deal). The instructions for post op care are clear. And when I came in for my post op appointment, the team was top notch. I can't thank Pacific Cataract and Laser enough. They really have added significant value to my life! Thank you!

I have to say the whole process was amazing! Staff was kind, procedure was simple. I could already see the next day! I was expected to be around 20/40 which I was happy with but after full healing I ended up with 20/20! I believe these results were due to all the testing they did to make sure I was a good candidate. Plus the skill of the surgeon along with having the best laser technology. I am beyond happy with my results that have changed my life in such a positive way! It's so worth the cost!

The entire staff and physicians were extremely professional to work with. Malinda was very informative throughout the entire process. Everything was thoroughly explained to me. Dr. Claypool was fantastic with my preop and postop visits--very informative! Dr. Sturbaum also saw me preoperatively and performed the procedure perfectly. I know there are other laser treatment centers that might be a little cheaper, but seriously, it's your eyes! I work in the medical profession and know when someone goes above and beyond what is expected, and everyone at Empire Eye does exactly that! I absolutely recommend them without hesitation!

From calling for information, later to schedule an appointment, to exams, I was treated well by everyone throughout the process. Everything was explained as we went through all processes, questions I raised were explained and answered to my satisfaction. I chose frames with assistance, run through the costs on my plan and the cost on lenses only, given options for my new glasses, helped to order lenses for my seldom used frame I had from 12 plus years ago, so I could have a reasonably priced pair for backup. All in all a very good experience.

Dr. Costa took the time to listen to my concerns, and addressed them in detail. His team is highly trained, and it was one of the most pleasant and low stress doctors visits I've had. His office even took it a step farther and followed up with me the following week to review lab results and referrals. Providence truly exceeded my expectations and made it feel so personal. Can not say enough good things about this team.
