Dr. Hill was my eye dr years ago when he was in Costco. I wasn't aware that he was still in town, I…read morejust knew Costco had decent prices and changed drs quite often. I was in need of a contact renewal and I called different offices that were quoting me $250 for an exam and a contact prescription which seemed outrageous to me when I paid around $100 without insurance in the past for the same thing when Dr. Hill was at Costco. It was actually a Costco employee who told me Dr. Hill was still in town and just had a different location at Eyemart. I called and was quoted roughly the same price I was use to paying previously, which was terrific! The pricing was a wonderful find, but knowing I would be seeing a great dr again was, without a doubt, the most important aspect for me. I have been to two other optometrists the last couple of years since seeing Dr Hill, and none have compared. Today I had my appointment with Dr. Hill and he was so gracious and thorough, as he always has been. He actually listened to my needs and adjusted my prescription appropriately. I left smiling because my sight was so much better than when I arrived! The last dr I had seen somehow missed that I needed my prescription adjusted. Not only did Dr. Hill help me today, he helped my brother also who was in need of glasses. My brother hasn't been to an optometrist in quite some time, and he requires glasses for driving. His glasses had broken and he tried taping them together to get by until he could find a reasonable dr to update his prescription and get some new glasses. When I mentioned my brother's situation to Dr Hill and his assistant, they got him in this afternoon right away. My brother sent me a photo of his new glasses with a big smile, which made me smile again. I will be back! Thank you so much Dr. Hill for helping me and my brother out and being so kind and accommodating. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone needing an excellent and appropriately priced optometrist.

I have called over the span of one week with mulltiple messages. No one answers the phone or…read morereturns calls. Terrible customer service!!!

If you are Looking for great care for your eyes in Redding there are a few good choices, but in my…read morehumble opinion, Riverside Eyecare is the best. They are located in a beautiful building on the banks of the Sacramento River adjacent to Cypress Ave in Redding. The facility is large, clean, modern, and well laid out. On the bottom floor are the physicians, Ophthalmologists, Dr Michael Sumsion and Doctor Sean Sumsion. Not only are both of these guys great physicians, their bedside manner and interaction with patients and family is fantastic. Very down to earth, patient, and happy to explain things. I have seen both of these docs, and I would put them as some of the best. For reference I see physicians at both UCSF and Stanford and this practice is at that caliber of professionalism and competence. Upstairs is the Optometrist, Dr. Jordan Evans. He is truly one of the nicest people I have ever met. He is so kind and patient. I was trying to switch from just eyeglasses to Contact Lenses and my experience with him and his awesome staff was phenomenal. They were not in a hurry to move me through, they took the time to educate me, ensure that everything fit right, on multiple appointments. The bedside manner, caring, and interaction are all outstanding in my humble opinion. I am definitely a fan!

Everything. Called me the day before my appointment and said referral expired. We can get you in…read morein 4 months???????? Then lost glasses and Called TWICE on a Monday. Left urgent messages. NO RETURN CALL. Went in person just now... of course closed for lunch. I will NEVER RETURN

I found someone else and I have an appointment so I can at least clear up the dry eye diagnosis properly. That gave me no confidence in the outcome come of my eye health.

While several staff members were courteous and professional, aspects of the exam were concerning. While waiting for the appointment, I became overwhelmed by the level of noise and conversation in the clinic by staff. Staff gossiping about patients, one another, etc... Just like hens in the henhouse ... I thought about leaving. During my exam, I was met with comments by DR. BAGGA such as, "Why do you have your eye closed?" and, "You should be able to see -- it's only an irritated eye; you just need saline." I am on General Assistance and cannot afford an eye lubricant. In addition, there were noticeable exchanges of side glances between DR.BAGGA and other staff, which conveyed JUDGEMENT t rather than support. These behaviors, though subtle, had a significant impact on my sense of safety and comfort during the exam. I share this not to criticize the entire practice, but to encourage greater awareness and sensitivity toward patients who may be experiencing sensory overload. DR. BAGGA a more mindful and respectful communication style would greatly improve the patient experience. I left ... and I STILL cannot afford an eye lubricant. I will NOT be back for care.
