    Loves her hip glasses.

    Dr Cornwwell is the best eye Dr I have ever had in my entire life. No Dr has ever explained things to me the way he does. He and Olivia are professional, so kind, caring and they truly deserve great 5 Star ratings and success. My family has been going to them ever since they first opened here in Burlington.

    During my time here, Olivia proved to be one of the best business owners I've met. She went out of her way to help me find glasses that I wouldn't have to pay out of pocket for. Even when I wan looking at more expensive glasses, she was like, "Nooo! You don't need to pay that!" I even heard her offer to drop eyeglasses off at a client's business since they stopped by early and they weren't ready. She is also very patient with customers when explaining things and has a lot of industry knowledge. And, look at this amazing, adorable packaging. She did this for everyone! There were so many cute little eyeglass gift bags for all of her customers.

    I was referred to Dr. Raymond A. Powell by a longtime patient in 2017. Because English is a second…read morelanguage for me, I was assisted by my adult daughter. Following an eye exam in late 2022, I prepaid in full for new glasses. When I went to pick them up in January 2023, there seemed to be a problem. When I called my daughter to translate the nature of the problem, longtime office manager JOEN M. WILKINS picked up my phone and said to my daughter "ARE YOU GOING TO GIVE US A CREDIT CARD SO WE CAN RELEASE THESE FRAMES?" The office manager shortly thereafter realized that the frames were already paid for, and then "released" them to me without apology. In the very same day, I received a bill for the Medicaid paid for exam with a handwritten note "WRONG INSURANCE INFORMATION PROVIDED TO US. WE ARE UNABLE TO BILL YOUR INSURANCE. THIS BILL IS THEREFORE YOUR RESPONSIBILITY". JOEN M. WILKINS later admitted to writing this note, which appeared to be rooted only in assumption. My insurance had been billed successfully for years, and had not changed and remained valid at the time of this encounter. A call to the Washington State Healthcare Authority confirmed my insurance had not changed and was active and valid. Upon hearing this, JOEN M. WILKINS said the State of Washington was wrong, without being able to provide any factual basis for her opinion. She appeared to be unable to own the mistake, and her reaction implied she's been conducting herself this way for a very, very long time. The State of Washington Healthcare Authority Official asked my daughter to take her phone into the office on speakerphone for JOEN M. WILKINS to hear the information from the State official directly. JOEN M. WILKENS locked her office door and refused to speak with the State Healthcare Authority Official on speakerphone, but her work husband (Doctor RAYMOND A. POWELL) did take the call and, after finally realizing that JOEN M. WILKENS had made a mistake, the Doctor promised to have the invoice re-billed. That never happened, and I was never refunded my cash payment that should have been re-billed to insurance. I sent a letter to the Doctor weeks later (translated to English) stating my concern that was never answered. I switched eye care providers after this experience and felt bad for other vulnerable elderly Medicaid patients who don't have a knowledgeable English speaking advocate to inquire on their behalf. During my years as a Burlington Eye Care patient, I observed the office staff turnover was excessive, and saw many capable and talented office staff leave (thank you to Melissa, Letty and Erin!, among many others). We encountered one former receptionist in the nearby Hagen parking lot in tears, who affirmed that JOEN M. WILKINS was the source of the perpetual staff turnover, and confirmed that JOEN M. WILKINS' relationship with the Doctor was like a marriage, wherein the Doctor protected her as if she was his spouse, and as long as one of them was working, the other wouldn't retire. That particular receptionist resigned sometime around 2018. I see a number of reviews here highlighting unpleasant patient encounters with staff, and I think spotlighting the decades-long relationship between JOEN M. WILKINS and RAYMOND A. POWELL will bring some closure to patients who had an unpleasant experience with the administrative side of the clinic, and were left wondering what kind of toxic dynamic allowed the dysfunction on the administrative side to continue. I see that the clinic is now closed, and wish the kind and knowledgeable Doctor good health and a peaceful and pleasant retirement.

    I really enjoy shopping at Costco, I can slowly browse the aisles and after I have the option to…read moreeat at their food counter. It's been a few months since my last visit and they have new food offerings! The choices are: Pizza (cheese or pepperoni), Chicken Bake, Hot Turkey and Provolone sandwich, Combo Calzone, 1/4 pound Hotdog, Rotisserie Chicken Salad, Cold Brew Mocha Freeze, Strawberry Banana Smoothie, Caramel Brownie Sundae, Ice Cream Sandwich Sundae, Ice Cream Cup, and Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies. Wow! A lot of choices compared to a few months ago! I chose the Combo Calzone and it was wonderful (for what amounts to a fast food restaurant)! It took only moments to serve up my calzone because they had a number ready to serve. Even so, the crust was nice and crisp and the fillings (pepperoni, sausage, cheese, tomato sauce, onions, peppers, olives, and mushrooms) were at a very warm, almost hot temperature. It was also very large. I felt like a pig eating the whole thing (just FYI, that is the only way the calzone is served. You cannot request what is inside.) I don't often eat at Costco, but I definitely enjoyed this time!

Quick turnaround on the half pep half chz pizza and the turkey sandwich was amazing! Customer service was top notch and I highly recommend trying it out! Also wanted to note they have new 4 packs of ground turkey for 20.00!!! Great deal because each package is 1.67 lbs.
