Doctors check everything out and make sure you are physically ready for surgery, as well as mentally. They explain everything that happens and will go in depth if you want. The day of surgery, the team took great care of me, making me very comfortable awaiting my turn. The procedure was professionally handled, and efficiently completed. It was also effective as I now have 20/15, coming from 20/50. So no more squinting to read road signs! And I get to wear my sunglasses whenever(if you have to wear glasses, you know this is a big deal). The instructions for post op care are clear. And when I came in for my post op appointment, the team was top notch. I can't thank Pacific Cataract and Laser enough. They really have added significant value to my life! Thank you!

I have to say the whole process was amazing! Staff was kind, procedure was simple. I could already see the next day! I was expected to be around 20/40 which I was happy with but after full healing I ended up with 20/20! I believe these results were due to all the testing they did to make sure I was a good candidate. Plus the skill of the surgeon along with having the best laser technology.

Not having to take contacts out before bed, to avoid getting water in your eyes while showering, or even adjust your glasses during physical activities- I can't believe this is how everyone else has lived all along! Two days after my appointment and I was feeling well enough to do Bloomsday. The only thing I regret is not doing this sooner. The entire team at LasikPlus did a great job with communication, scheduling, and answering any of my questions. Specifically, Dr.Iwanyk who performed my procedure, told me exactly what was happening every step of the way and I felt reassured the whole time (and by whole time, I mean ten minutes). If you are on the fence, do it- you won't regret it (worst case, have a conversation).

The entire staff and physicians were extremely professional to work with. Malinda was very informative throughout the entire process. Everything was thoroughly explained to me. Dr. Claypool was fantastic with my preop and postop visits--very informative! Dr. Sturbaum also saw me preoperatively and performed the procedure perfectly. I know there are other laser treatment centers that might be a little cheaper, but seriously, it's your eyes! I work in the medical profession and know when someone goes above and beyond what is expected, and everyone at Empire Eye does exactly that! I absolutely recommend them without hesitation!

I left there feeling like I finally found a good eye doctor. My wait was 45 minutes past my appointed time, but they had quite a few severely disabled folks being seen and that made them run behind. Seems to be the norm for the larger doctor's offices anyway, so it wasn't a big deal to me. You do have to have patience in these places. I got to watch TV while I waited so that helped pass the time. The facility was exceptionally clean and well maintained. Staff at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. They have a high call volume and the lobby was quite full, so that told me they're quite busy which means: very good doctors!

BUT the "glaucoma eval" was 45 mins. late and was a joke -- basically just an unneeded vision check. Then the consult was 2 hours late and the surgeon decided he didn't want to the procedure we were there for that day. We ended up staying in a hotel overnight after he tried to talk us into something else entirely. The procedure worked, as our primary eye doctor was sure it would, but we were completely underwhelmed by the surgeon's "info" and recommendations and the prescription for the follow-up eye drops was never even sent to the pharmacy! All told, this office cost us 4 hours of waste time, $150 for a hotel, and a lot of confidence. We will NEVER go there again.

The ophthalmologist at Seattle Children's Hospital and multiple optometrists after that all missed it. Spokane Eye Clinic Valley did an *amazing* job. Dr. Ellis caught the double-vision right off the bat, and was able to give me a prescription for prism glasses that fully correct that, my astigmatism, and my near-sightedness. Her professionalism, kindness, patience, and knowledge, as well as that of her staff, was quite refreshing. She made sure my prescription was exactly what I needed, and even made the necessary adjustments a month later (commonly necessary with new prism lenses) without charging for the visit. Now I have my 3D vision back, and my double vision is gone! Alongside that, the office staff and opticians are all friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. They worked with my insurance, and handled everything wonderfully. I cannot recommend Spokane Eye Clinic Valley more highly. Quite simply put, if you have *any* eye troubles, you NEED to see Dr. Ellis. She and her staff are the best of the best in my experience.

I got there at 11 am and had all my forms completed. The girl gave me a packet and told me to go sit in section D. From 11:05 to 11:50 am nobody acknowledged me and nobody told me they were running behind. I waited and waited. I did not end up going to my appointment because I did not have another hour to go and sit around. Terrible place - they were not like this but they were bought out and now run by a different group. Go somewhere else. I am hoping they do not bill my insurance for this since I did not leave anywhere past the waiting room. The girls who came out did not apologize, did not take accountability, and just stared at me when I asked why I was not notified of the delays.

I'd been told "come in if you have any issues!" So I did, but was not told that this would be considered a new visit - and it was charged to my insurance company and incurred an additional $50 copay that I was never informed about until I got the invoice in the mail. It would seem like if you have a strong reaction to something that happened during their treatment, you would be seen without it incurring another charge. OR at least you would be informed of such. The glasses that my husband and I ordered from them scratched easily despite paying extra for scratch protection - and I only ever used the cloth given to me. After shopping around we realized we could have saved hundreds going elsewhere. Also keep in mind that one of their employees is "hands on" - that is will touch your shoulder, arm or get into your personal space. While I'm generally really easy going, it happened often enough and bothered me enough to have to ask to have someone else help me - the request was granted, but the nurse I spoke to acted like I was being unreasonable for making the request, and i had to continue to make the request every time I came in - apparently it was not noted in my file. I hate giving negative reviews, but thought it might help others to share my experience. I will be taking my business elsewhere and encourage others to do so as well.

She asked me what my prescription was, found that they had samples, and provided them to me after purchasing a box of contacts, exactly what I needed! When I arrived at the store, a receptionist warmly greeted me and explained that Megan would be right with me. I sat in their lovely waiting room for a minute before Megan got me my samples and ordered me a six-month supply, all for tremendously cheaper than I had paid for that same box at other stores in the past! Megan solved a major problem for me in minutes and with great kindness and respect. The customer service at Northside Vision Center is truly fabulous, and they've made a lifelong customer out of me!

Dr. Rebecca Jangula is great. However, staff member Mary manipulated me into an unwanted, unauthorized $39 procedure that my insurance would not cover. I never authorized any extras.

I won't be going back or referring anyone to them. $39.00 just cost them way more in lost business
