Made an appointment with Dr.Rebecca McLaughlin and was seen in about a week! The office is bright and sunny and super clean. Some country tunes playing in the waiting room and really friendly staff great you. Dr.McLaughlin was SO wonderful - saw me right on time, explained every step of the exam, and even helped me look up a new contact solution I was considering. So glad that they take my insurance (Harvard Pilgrim) AND they're just a few turns off of 395.

I was fitted for glasses with Michael, who was very knowledgeable. I ultimately made my decision after asking Michele, the receptionist. I like a woman's opinion, so sue me. The only problem was that I knew I only had $150 to spend through my insurance, the glasses I chose were $225, so let's see if I get hit with an overage bill. (would be my fault for having expensive taste ;) So -- great Doctor -- but know your spending limits :)

Dr. Zak is not just a doctor--he's your local optometrist. Right from the handicap accessible ramp…read moreoutside his office, you can tell he cares to make his practice within reach for every person who passes through his doors. His office is like many other offices in Webster: a renovated home. Inside the entrance, there's a quaint waiting room with an aquarium, magazines, photos, and a countertop where reception and officework take place. Leading in, you can view all the glasses he offers--from state-administrated frames from MassHealth, to a selection of modern styles and varieties. Just around the wall from the waiting room is where Dr. Zak helps you get the right fit on your frames and makes sure they are a fit for you. When I went, Dr. Zak made sure to make my visit just as long and informative as I needed. I asked about contact lenses, and he told me how casually I could purchase my preferences online based on my previous prescription. I asked about eyesight concerns, and he helped me realize warning signs that I was lacking. He checked my old lenses and my eyesight and quickly figured I needed little change. Overall, I felt that he knew how experienced I'd been, having gone to optometrists most of my life. But, I felt that he was willing to take as long as I needed, or go as in-depth as I liked, to make sure I felt my eyesight health was being addressed. His receptionist was friendly, though I've forgotten her name, and I've returned many times for replacement lenses from my outside manufacturer. Dr. Zak treated each time with the care of the first, making sure my glasses fit, and that the prescription was comfortable. He wouldn't want me to run out the door as if my new pair of glasses was ready without adjustments. While he's not in his office as much as big chain optometry, I feel that he is always available for help when he can, and is ready to call back like a treasured doctor-patient relationship. Overall, I'm impressed with the care Dr. Zak provided me as a patient, and I'm surprised nobody's reviewed him before, much less provided photos. I'm sure he's worth your trip if you have a choice to go anywhere else.

I am/was a long time patient at Forgues Eyecare. I initially saw Dr.Mark Forgues for many years,…read moreand now have been seeing Dr Matt Forgues for over 5 years. I liked both doctors and was happy with their care. My satisfaction with the office staff has been steadily declining over the past 2 years, however. Over the past month I have tried repeatedly to get my records sent to a specialist for a necessary procedure. The office now uses an answering machine and does not respond to my messages. I've called multiple times over multiple days. No response. They've lost themselves a good patient.

I would like to start by saying that my family has been going to Forgues for decades. We have…read morealways been happy, that is until our last few experiences. The office staff has gone way down hill. Not providing necessary information regarding the cost of services and glasses, refusing to schedule an appointment for my daughter who is having trouble seeing due to an overdue balance that we didn't know about. Heartless and rude would be the best way to describe the people I have dealt with. The word inept also comes to mind. Dr. Forgues is an excellent doctor but due to his office staff I will be looking for a new eye doctor.

Needless to say I was groggy for both. All I wanted to do was order a pair of back up glasses. The prescription had not yet expired, which they admitted but they said they recommend I come in.

I made an appointment with this office. Very friendly staff and the eye exam was ok. My issue is…read morethat they said that they were in network with my insurance company and they were not. They called me up and said that I owed an additional $80 because "it was a diabetic medical exam and that it went to the deductible. I called my insurance company and they said that they were not in network and that the billing code was correct. They actually billed the insurance company an extra medical fee, which was rejected because it's included in the coding for the original eye exam. The practice was not in network at the time of my exam and tried to bill me the out of network fee. The other issue is is that the doctor will not give you your paper prescription for your eyeglasses until you buy the eyeglasses from them. I asked the doctor for my prescription and he said that when I picked up my glasses, he would give it to me. I have never had this happen before. As far as my prescription itself, I'm still not seeing very clearly.
