This new location is clean and cute. Staff is amazing! EXTRA SPECIAL SHOUT OUTS TO ANDRE T. AND…read moreSHY!
I found my home LaserAway, and honestly, the company is quite lucky because this is the first time I have had a positive experience with a LaserAway since buying my packages more than a year ago.
Unlike the Arlington location, which is incredibly racist, inconsiderate, and unhelpful, I walked into this location today feeling like I was a member of the family.
But before we even get to that, let's talk about the pre-appointment vibes. I called earlier this week to make an appointment, hoping they had something available for Thursday. Luckily, they did. I spoke to Shy and I knew from the moment that she answered the phone that I liked her. She was so pleasant and so sweet, nothing like any LaserAway corporate or center representative. I've ever spoken to. We made the appointment, she provided all the necessary information and I was set.
So, today, I drove down for my appointment. Unfortunately, there was a game, which made parking a little complicated. I called the center and Shy answered the phone. She was so nice and accommodating and was so focused on me getting there safely over anything else. Luckily, I ended up parking at The Estate garage around the corner, which only charges five dollars per hour (in case you ever run into the same issue).
I got there shortly there after, and was greeted by Shy with a smile. "YOU MADE IT!" she said. Her response honestly threw me off, but in the best way. I am so used to feeling like just another number, or worse, a bother to those at the Arlington location, this was such a welcomed way to be received.
She checked me in, offered me a refreshment, then told me my nurse would be with me shortly. Less than two minutes later, out came Megan, who was also great. Megan walked me through the whole process, as they do, and got to work. She was very thorough and did a good job of asking questions and explaining various things before, during, and after.
Then came check out, I checked out with Andre T., who was such a pleasure! Andre helped me book my upcoming appointments, and confirmed some information for me. Our entire interaction and exchange was extremely professional, kind, cordial, and inviting. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.
I thanked Andre and Shy for their kindness and explained that this is nothing like what I had experienced before. Not from Amanda Holmes on LaserAway's corporate team and definitely not from anyone at the Arlington location. Even though they didn't have to, they apologize for me having negative experiences before, and asked that I please come back to them for a better experience. They didn't even have to. By the time I walked back to my treatment room, I had already made up my mind that this was going to be my new spot.
I am incredibly thankful for my experience today and every team member that I interacted with. Thank you for humanizing this experience and me, providing exceptional customer service. See you next week!
