Services that were extra were not explained at the time of the exam. When I tried to call to ask about these additional procedures, the staff was rude and refused to help me solve the problem. When attempting to get an explanation of why we got ripped off, it took over a month for the manager to answer the phone. After calling for the eighth time, I was finally able to speak with someone who simply stated that that is how this center does business; by not informing the consumer what they will be charged until time of billing. DO NOT go here if you are on the market for any eye services.

It was my last exam there and that is unfortunate as the care has always been wonderful. But today, all the techs were maskless and as well as the receptionist and the cashier. I thought about complaining to the office directly but then I thought, there is no point. They made the decision and Masks Optional is the way they chose. I will now choose a safe and responsible practice and it is NOT Bishop Eye.

I showed a few minutes early for my appointment (because, you know, 5 minutes early is late), so I was expecting to have to wait a bit. After scanning my ID and Ins card at the front desk, I just had time to sit down comfortably when my name was being called. A quick trip to the blinding lights and the eye puffer, and I was in an exam room. After a very thorough questioning from the nurse/assistant/whatever you call them, Doctor Bowles was tapping on my door within a very short 5 minutes. I expected a quick 1 or 2, a or b, but was pleasantly surprised as she not only took her time with me, making sure I was tracking what she was saying, she also explained my eye scans (all normal, yay) and went over her thoughts on correcting my vision and gave me options as to how I wanted to go. OPTIONS! Amazing. Seriously. So bottom line is, if you are in the Savannah area, ESPECIALLY if you are a Gulfstream employee (they happily take VSP), forget about the big chain places and head to Effingham EyeCare. You only have one set of eyes and they can't be replaced yet. TLDR: go here and thank me later.

She took care of my appointments and what each step would take and cost. Never misguided throughout the process. I had a consultation that I was told I was a good candidate for Lasik or PRK. Dr. Hunter went over both options for me to choose. I chose Lasik. He said it would be an easy process and talked me through what the day would entail. Dale called to remind me of appointments and day of surgery. The day of surgery I was first up at 7am and I've never met a more laid back/serious group in my life. Everyone had a job and took that job very serious. Dr. Hunter spoke with me throughout the ENTIRE process. Never a second did I not know what was going on. After my first eye was done he even let me take a second to collect myself. After doing the first eye, the second eye is a breeze. In my "BRAND NEW" EYES...best experience I've ever had with any doctor, any team. Bravo and thank you for giving me my eye site back. To anyone on the fence about it...do it. Its painless. A little pressure, but no more pressure than if you sat on your hand. You feel it, but it's not even close to significant. Dr. Hunter is the best.
