I have been a patient of Dr. Teague's for over 40 years and he has always been fantastic. However,…read morerecent experiences with the front staff and the general operations there have me and my family looking for another eye doctor. I was erroneously booked for 2 appointments on the same day a couple of weeks ago (with email and text confirmations). I didn't realize this until right before the first appointment and couldn't get anyone to answer the phone to confirm which was correct. I drove to the office on hold the entire drive of 10+ minutes only to find when I went inside that my later in the day appointment time was correct. None of the staff were on the phone when i arrived so I have no idea why no one could answer the phone. When I arrived for my later appointment, I waited over 45 minutes in the waiting area and was skipped by at least 4 other patients who came in behind me. All were taken back for their visits before me including at least one to see the same doctor I was waiting for. Then after my appointment, even though I informed staff I was in a hurry and wanted to simply pay and take my prescription elsewhere, I was forced to wait another 20 minutes before finally being checked out. In this time, someone came in of the street with an issue with her glasses and was helped by one of the check-out staff ahead of me. Another family member arrived last week for her scheduled appointment and was informed that the scheduling system cancelled her appointment and that she would have to schedule a new one. No one apologized and they refused to work her in at her scheduled time.

I can't say enough good things about Kaluzne Vision Care... they are amazing!…read more I originally selected Dr. Kaluzne and his team because they were the only optometrist in the Winston Salem area to offer Optomap, a digital health picture of your eye that is saved and allows them to compare changes between visits. Well worth the small extra fee. When I first started using contact lenses they included some much needed, hands on lessons on putting them on. They reached out to me a few days later to see how things were going. When they learned I was still struggling they asked me to come back in so they could give me some pointers and practice with them watching. SO helpful! They are dedicated to outstanding customer/patient service. From their overall demeanor to their willingness to help with insurance to their happy personas... they make every visit to the eye doctor a pleasant experience. Their dedication to quality is noticeable as you enter the building too... super clean and well kept with nothing out of place. Twice now I've developed eye infections over the last few years. Both times, despite being on a Friday, they were able to work me in for a quick medical visit and get me prescription drops so I would be good as new by Monday.

I had one of the most stressful and upsetting experiences at this eye exam, and I feel it's…read moreimportant to share. It all started with a 45-minute wait past our appointment time in the lobby, where there was a person screaming nonstop. This was never addressed by the staff, and it left my school aged child terrified--she wouldn't let go of me and just clung to me the whole time. During the appointment, the staff asked me in front of my child whether she was "jealous of her older siblings" and making up eye problems just to get glasses. This was not only inappropriate, but it made an already uncomfortable situation worse. Then, when the doctor finally came in, we were told my child needed glasses to see properly. We were told that our insurance would cover the appointment 100%, but they didn't cover anything because the office had processed the insurance incorrectly. I called multiple times, left messages, and eventually had to send a letter to get someone to address it. When I finally received the bill, the staff was extremely rude and told me it was my fault for not providing insurance that would cover the exam--despite being explicitly told my insurance would cover it fully. In the end, I'm left paying for an exam that was emotionally draining for my child and should have been covered by my insurance. The whole experience was frustrating, and I was really disappointed by the lack of professionalism from both the staff and the doctor. I would highly recommend finding a different eye care provider. We will not be returning to this office.

Due to the pandemic, you are required to call and make an appointment, they will not let you in the building without one. Mask are required & sanitizer is spread out throughout the store. Now as far as service goes, the gentleman on the phone who made my appointment was not too friendly and seemed to be in a rush. Maybe they were busy, I get it. Day of my appointment, the one woman who was helping customers had me sit at the same desk as the people who just left (literally), so no sanitation of seating here. I wasn't able to get my glasses because my perception was on my phone. (They do not accept virtual perceptions) But you are allowed to get your prescription faxed to the store. I'm also getting lenses because I have frames I want to use. I think those two things turned the woman helping me off because once I said those things she got up gave me the card to get my prescription faxed & just started walking to the door (mind you I'm still sitting down at the desk) I had more questions to ask. So I got up asked her while she basically escorted me out the store. Then stopped at the door and started telling me more information. Ma'am! Why didn't we just go over all that when we were sitting down. Didn't ask if I had anymore questions or if there was something else she can help me with. I didn't feel like my services were wanted there. It's weird cause I received lenses for my frames here before (frames I did not buy with them again) and the experience was a lot different. I'm now re-thinking my decision and I might go some where else. They get a 3 star for the CDC regulations, but their customer service really needs some work.

Pros: the office is clean, staff is nice and prompt, and we're usually in and out in a timely manner. Since Covid, they ship contacts straight to your house since of office pick ups. Cons: a while back I had to cancel my December appt because I had Covid, and they weren't able to schedule me again until March. After a few dialogues they did provide sample packs of contacts until that time. Fast forward to this year: I had a baby and missed my yearly deadline (somehow they send reminders to my husband and not to me). But anywho-another 3 month wait for an eye exam and refusal to provide any sample contacts. We now have appointments made within 2 weeks at another facility. Fortunately for them they're doing great business, however it's unfortunate for their existing and long term patients.

They were clearly running behind but refused to acknowledge it or communicate that honestly. The eye doctor had a major attitude and was rude from the start. When I asked questions, she was uninformative and dismissive, and it was obvious there was little to no customer service training. Another major issue was the insurance information. Their website states they accept my insurance, but once I arrived I was told they do not. One person said they might only accept it for the eye exam, while glasses would most likely be out of pocket. The information was inconsistent and misleading. Between the long wait, the doctor's major attitude and rude behavior, and the misinformation about insurance on their website, this was a very disappointing experience. I would not recommend sending anyone here.

I explained to Mark exactly what we wanted and he did exactly as we asked. I was impressed that he didn't try to "up sell" us at all. He listened and it was greatly appreciated. The exam process was very simple- done via telemedicine. The only downside was that the doctor had a very strong accent and it was difficult to hear him sometimes. Overall- very good experience and I would recommend them to anyone looking for glasses.
