    Good place for an eye exam. The staff is pretty friendly; however, 2 staff members are very knowledgeable and helpful in the optical area

    Doctors are good and caring but the business model provides abysmal customer service. It's near…read moreimpossible to get a person on the phone, the prompts on the phone take you to the wrong line or to dead ends or to mailboxes that don't get checked. The absolute frustration in trying to accomplish the simplest things makes it worth looking elsewhere that has more personalized service. WIth ReFocus having bought several practices, it isn't easy.

    My husband and I had an appointment for a cataract check with Dr. Amanda Dinsmore in August 2026…read more Had the same appointments the year prior. The prior appointments were billed out correctly. This year my husband's was billed out correctly, but mine was billed as an eye exam. I called the office and spoke to someone in the billing dept. She was extremely rude and told me that I should have realized I was getting an eye exam. I sat in on my husband's appointment and it was done the same way as mine. Dr Dinsmore offered us new scripts but really only a slight change. Informed her we did not come for that but we there to see how our cataracts were progressing. I received a bill for $60 and then another one $194.53. We will NEVER use this practice again and will inform everyone we know about our experience with them. The year prior Dr Dinsmore told me to schedule an appointment w/a new person who specializes in macular degeneration. We had a visit w/this woman who I proposed the question: does my husband have macular degeneration. She responded no but he could be a candidate for it. I should've known then to leave this practice, but I gave them another try. That was my mistake.

    Took my 91 year old mother-in-law for her eye exam. First, Gregory was outstanding;. He was so…read morekind and more than helpful as she is wheelchair bound. Kudos for making this visit as easy as he could. The office is absolutely not set up for patients in wheelchairs and we used her smaller one. The office was crowed and there is way too much furniture to comfortably navigate. The outer office waiting area does not have a wheelchair "parking" area. Now onto the eye exam . . . without Gregory, it would have been hard to complete. The equipment for the pre-exam portion is not handicap friendly. Luckily, this patient can stand for a short time. For one portion, her wheelchair wouldn't fit the area and she had to move to the chair. Now onto the actual eye exam, I knew that she would have to move to the chair but how do people who can't get out of their wheelchairs get eye exams? This really made me think and I want an answer to this? Let's discuss picking out new glasses for the wheelchair bound patients. Ugghhhhhhhhhh. There was no good spot for this either. We were in the way of everyone and there was not comfortable location for her to see in the mirror. The kind employee had to keep bring over the table mirror for her to see the glasses. Felt rushed to complete the process due to space constraint. This is not a great location for wheelchair patients.

    They have always been mediocre, but my last experience sent me over the edge. I made the mistake of…read morebooking a remote optometrist appointment at their facility. I made my desire for daily contacts known to everyone I spoke to, including the optometrist, and was given two samples of daily contacts to try out before placing my order. I placed my order on the phone, only to receive monthly contacts. When I called them to see what could be done to correct their mistake and get me the daily contacts I was under the impression I was ordering, I was dismissively told that "most people order monthly contacts" and that my only option was to book yet another appointment and pay full price again. I found the lack of any sort of willingness to correct a mistake on their end to be inexcusable. I submitted a patient relations request, but unless they send me what I ordered I will not be coming to any MyEyeDr location again.
