The cataract surgery is 100% covered by my insurance. I spoke to a manager there and was told pay the $200 or be dropped as a patient, instead of working with me. My eye with the cataract is very blurry and in need of immediate surgery, but all Regional Eye Center cares about is money. They are doctors and have to take an oath "To first do no harm." But I guess it is ok to harm when a paltry $200 is involved. I suggest avoiding them for any of your vision needs. George Snider

My family and I have gone to Americas for the past 15 years in 3 different cities and for the past…read more8 years we have been going to the Joplin, MO location. We have had excellent friendly care and prices that we could afford. I had an issue with my vision in 2007, got an appointment, not sure I would have gone right away but since I had the eyecare club I knew there would be no charge. Good thing, because Dr. Chronister saw I had a tear in my retina and he and his staff got on the phone to get me to a specialist. That proved to be slightly difficult since it was Christmas time. They did not stop until they got me an appt. because you see, if you don't fix a tear your retina can detach and thats as serious as it gets. I have told this story many many times until December 2012 with praise for this location and its staff. In December 2012, I once again had an issue with my vision that had started a couple weeks prior but was busy and put if off but made an appt. with Americas for Dec 29th Saturday. Once again, Dr. Chronister and his staff saved my eyesight. 1-I wouldn't have bothered during the Christmas season to go but they make it easy with convenient hours and the eyecare club, exams are free for 3 years. 2-I had a detached retina by the time I got there and again, Dr. Chronister and his staff did not stop for 3 hours calling and trying to get me in somewhere because there was no doubt I had to have surgery to repair or lose my eye. 3-They assured me every 15 min or so that it was going to be okay that they were working on getting me taken care of-and during this time they were seeing a heavy load of other patients but still took the time. they had to get me to a specialist/surgeon in Kansas City since there were no available doctors and/or equipment in the joplin area due to not having been replaced since the tornado. Anyway, I am sorry I didn't write this review sooner, have moved to Kansas City for a job, won't hesitate to go to Americas Best here but will probably drive back to Joplin since Dr. Brian Chronister and his staff there are awesome, which means they are professional, knowledgable, friendly, affordable. So give them another chance or visit for the first time and see for yourself. And a big thank you for everything to the Joplin staff.

OMG. AVOID AT ALL COSTS! I saw some decent reviews and made…read morean appointment to update my eyeglass prescription. I picked out frames and had the glasses made at EyeMart in Joplin. After the glasses were made, they were completely UNusable because the prescription by Lacy Hale was disturbingly WRONG. When I returned the glasses to EyeMart, even the sales crew knew the prescription was off and couldn't be correct when they compared it to my old prescription (which Ms Hale was given at my appointment.) I had to make a new appt with a different Optometrist ($100) and have my glasses re-made. This cost me TIME and MONEY. The new prescription from a different optometrist is fine. I was upset and asked Hale Vision to refund my appointment cost ($40). Her receptionist refused and was RUDE on her behalf. I wrote a letter explaining my dissatisfaction and mailed it to her office. I received no reply. I was then billed $118 for "remaining charges" as Hale does not accept my insurance. Last week, I took my insurance claim form to Hale Vision on Thursday to submit it myself. I was the only customer in the office. The receptionist told me I would need to return on Monday, 4 days later. "It was a lot of paperwork." Literally, it is filling out the prescription and signing the form. I called Monday to pick it up. The first 2 phone calls were not answered at all. I left a message with my phone number. My call was never returned. I reached the receptionist on a 3rd call late in the afternoon. The claim form is not signed. "I think she took it home with her." "She is not in the office today, she had an emergency." I was told to check again tomorrow. Based on my experience Ms. Hale is not prepared to run a practice alone. She needs supervision. My prescription was wildly INCORRECT. She and her receptionist have been unprofessional in dealing with me. I believe she is intentionally delaying her signature on my claim form because I justifiably complained. Once I receive the insurance claim form, I will immediately pay the bill I just received; not before. GO ELSEWHERE!
