When they call you a day before an appointment you've waited 2 months for and say they're canceling…read moreon you because THEY DIDNT DO THEIR PAPERWORK ON TIME FOR BILLING.... it becomes pretty clear the incompetency is real. Decided to schedule an appointment elsewhere, hoping some other place might have their crap together.

The house was built in the 1950's and it retains its original ranch house feel with a cute porch and a large orange tree out front. The office has two examination rooms and space for contact lenses and frames. The long list of lifetime patients attests to our our hometown vibe and excellence of care!

An amazing office--best optometric care I have ever seen. It…read morehelps that this is a very friendly office and everyone seems to be so wiling to be of assistance. It helps even more when I feel like Dr. Krieger is the best optometrist I have ever had in my 68 years. She explains things so clearly and is very thorough in her evaluations and is just a very warm person to have as an optometrist. I would place this office in the highest category of excellent optometry offices.

I would recommend going to a different eye doctor, unless u want to step back in time to the 80's…read more I did not feel that I received a complete exam, and the Modesto office is more of an afterthought, all I heard was how everything was in the Turlock office. I could go on and on, but I would plainly recommend a different doctor.

I do NOT recommend this crazy and dishonest "Optometrist." You only need to read halfway through…read morethis review to come to the same conclusion. Her Modesto facility is disgusting. Dirt, yes dirt on the walls, the inside is deteriorating and it smells of old animals. Her examination room consists of an old barber chair for her patients to sit on and ancient optometry equipment. She doesn't sanitize equipment either before it touches your eyes. She is not upfront and honest about service costs and bullies money out of you. Read closely...MY EYES DO NOT REQUIRE DILATION. That has been confirmed by a team of other Optometrists. She will demand that your eyes be dilated because she knows you drove alone. In order to avoid dilation she suddenly announces "Well then I have to use a special machine on you and it's $25 extra." Surprise! With the $15 copay and the $25 service fee I'm at $40. And she demands cash but doesn't tell you until it's too late and you have to go to the nearest bank. THEN she announces, I have astigmatism and she has to order samples of contacts for me to try on AND her exam fee is $150. It gets better. She then proceeded to INSULT my surprised reaction to her ridiculous fees, fees which she claims my insurance wouldn't cover. THEN tells me if I have a complaint to make it directly to her and not the insurance company. Oh don't worry, I'm going to the company AND the internet. It gets EVEN BETTER. SHE CALLED MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND BILLED THEM FOR SERVICES STEALING MY YEARLY BUDGET FOR CONTACTS AND GLASSES SO SHE COULD GET PAID. Even after I asked her to stop the examination because of her dishonesty in charges. I didn't ask for my prescription. Thankfully my insurance provider reversed the fees. She's not getting paid a dime. Her joke of a practice needs to be shut down. Hopefully this review helps future patients make an informed decision of doing business with her.

Waited almost an hour and a half for a scheduled morning appointment, missed another appointment…read morescheduled for 3 hours later due to the delays. Staff dodges questions about scheduling, refuses to say when you will be seen other than "next", and claims patients cause the delays by "asking questions", then suggested I come back tomorrow, over an hour drive each way. Perhaps to enjoy another 1.5 hour wait? Doctor is telehealth, not in person. Waiting room is very crowded, lots of kids playing. Not enough chairs for all the people waiting. Usually Costco eye offices are well run and efficient, not like this at all.
