Our family had been loyal customers for years. Dr.Quinn is a phenomenal physician, however, since…read moreoffice management has changed it is obvious that they now value profit more than patient satisfaction. I have both health insurance and Humana exam and materials vision insurance. My exam today was an annual exam to get prescription updates for both glasses and contacts. This is covered with a $10 copay with my vision insurance. I did agree for "additional" tests which I was told would be scheduled a few months later which would require the use of my health insurance at that time. However when I left my visit, without having the "additional testing" which I was told would cost $65.00 at a later date, I was presented with a $127 copay, and they used my health insurance instead of vision insurance. I didn't purchase contacts/glasses- and did NOT agree to any additional testing other than what I was told would be scheduled at a later date. Quinn eye center office mgt. chose to use my health insurance instead of my vision insurance adding one item (which I had NOT previously agreed to not been informed of cost) claiming they were "saving" me money. When I attempted to resolve this issue, speaking with both Christine and John Michael, I received 2 different rationales for this cost. I cannot recommend an eye doctor who charges a $127 copay for annual eye exam when the patient has vision insurance that would cover these items with only a $10.00 copay. After appointment, I called my Humana vision insurance representative who indeed told me that both contact and eyeglass prescriptions are included in their annual eye exam with only a $10 copay. It is very sad because we have been loyal patients for years. I CANNOT in good conscience recommend them any more.

Pay attention to your credit card charges/statements and random charges being submitted to your health insurance without patients approval and authorization. 3/28/2025 - First billing scam/issue. Had appointment on 3/28/25, eye where dilated by dr., was incorrectly billed and credit card over charged. Used my VSP vision insurance, w/ copay $10. Dr office billed a subtotal of $50 for 3 line items. My credit card was charged $120.00. Dr ended 3/28 appointment early and requested a follow up refraction appointment one month later. Dr. Office refunded $120 back to credit card. And then charged my credit card $60 even though invoice subtotal was $50. Patient paid $60 in full at time of service. 04/28/2025 - Second billing scam/issue. Had appointment on 4/28/25 with Dr. Starlings for the 3/28 appointment she ended and then requested a follow up exam and refraction. On 04/28/2025 Dr. Starling completed refraction, new contact rx issued, new and trail contacts ordered. Dr was fully paid at time of service. On 4//29 one day after my appointment, Dr. Starling dropped me as a patient! WTF, what horrible service and experience. Next Dr. Starling, canceled the new contact rx she wrote the previous day, cancels my trial contacts she ordered, and has her front desk tell me that they are refunding for the services they rendered. I questioned and complained that the 4/28/25 $45 copay was a second copay being charged for the first visit on 3/28 which Dr. already collected the copay when processed under VSP. Early on 04/29, I spoke with Lauren from Dr. office about 04/28 charges. At that time I asked Lauren if my VSP insurance was listed and billed. Lauren confirmed yes it was for 3/28 DOS charges. I asked Lauren if my Florida Blue Insurance was listed on my account profile. Lauren lied to me telling me no. I advised Lauren my VSP is the only insurance Im using and should be the only instance listed. I asked her to please remove my health insurance information from their system if listed. Next, Lauren said my health insurance wasn't billed for 04/29/25 DOS charges. According to my health insurance, Dr Starlings office billed my health insurance $80 of my copay 04/28 and then billed me $45 as patient responsibility. Why am I and my health Insurance being charged a second co-pay on a secondary follow appointment and services originally postponed by Dr Starling on 03/28/2025 until 04/28/2025?

Furthermore, the prices are on point, nothing is to expensive, and yes, they send there glasses to a lab.

My lenses started to deteriorate almost immediately after walking out of their shop. A few months later, after they had gotten to a point were they were just getting unusable, I came back to UO to see what could be done about this. I was basically told there was nothing they could do and, ha ha, if I actually HAD gotten the anti-glare coating, they would have been covered by a warrantee. So there was no "warrantee" for the lenses in general?!! I guess that's tough luck for me. Awesome... This place sucks.

She said her family comes to Gainesville Vision. I have been only pleased and highly pleased at that by the professionalism and service of the doctors and their staff here. The eye exam was thorough yet quick and the doctor was very good about answering questions for me. I am involved in a variety of sports so this presents specific concerns (and also is why I insist on Oakley frames because they're about the toughest in the business). What type of variable tint would I need for soccer in bright sunlight or should I just get separate Rx sunglasses? When I am platform diving, I obviously take off my glasses so is the instant transition from corrected vision to uncorrected and from sun-filtered to not something to worry about? Other doctors have seemed unable or unwilling to really delve into specific sports-centric vision issues with me but this one did, and did so gladly. She was simply excellent. When I came back to get the frames I selected when the glasses' lenses were ready, the technician involved was equally professional. When I ran into some issues with these frames playing soccer weeks later, they had time for me again and ended up sending the frames back and getting news ones which worked better at no additional cost. I never felt rushed or like I was causing an imposition for anyone here but instead that they take all the time necessary to ensure each patient's needs are completely met. Very impressed with the entire business.
