Communication!! I…read morehad an eye exam done on September 24 as I lost my glasses in the lake. Dr. Gannon was great. After the eye exam, I ordered a new pair of glasses at the front desk and I was told it would take 10-14 business days before the glasses would be available. That is a really long time to be without glasses, especially if you see as poorly as I do!! On September 30, I received this text from the Vision Center South: "Hi Douglas --------, this is Eye Partners, P.C.. We would like to communicate with you via text. Reply YES or Y to grant us permission." I immediately responded "Y", thinking that an additional text would come to notify me of the arrival of my new glasses. Today, October 15 (21 days later), I walked into the Vision Center South to check on my glasses because the 10-14 business days have passed. Although I have received no other communications concerning my glasses, I was excited to find that my glasses were on the shelf there in the office and I was able to get them! I was extremely disappointed to find out that my glasses have been on the shelf on the office since I received the first and only communication from the Vision Center, on September 30th!!! You would think someone in the office would reach out to notify you that the glasses were ready to be picked up! It seems that "processing" is more important than "patient care", and both need improvement.

I finally asked her why she was being so rude and that just made it worse. Come on people!! If You know if you have a rude person working for you,don't let them deal with customers. I work in sales and she wouldn't last a second. I'll never know if their services are any good because I never made it past the rudest person I've ever came in contact with. So unprofessional. I reported her to the main office but now I've heard lots of people don't go to this location because of her. Why would they continue to employ this woman? We decided not to patronize this company at all because of the woman at the wetumpka location. Still shocked she has a job dealing with patients and the general public. They're more polite at the drivers license office. The bad part is,she was the boss at that location,or so she said when I asked to speak to the boss. If this is true,the main location knows what kind of person they have running the Wetumpka location and won't ever get a penny from my blue cross. That's how rude this woman was!! Really.

Ever go to an appointment and have to wait 45 minutes past your scheduled appointment time? If…read moreyou're looking for that, go to River region vision source in Millbrook. I go there every six months and the last visit I waited 45 minutes past my appointment time. Had another appt last Tuesday and I watched 12 people go into the back, another 10 come in were agin seen and I was left alone. I asked why I was still waiting and they said they didn't know where my paperwork was but would look for it. After 10 min waiting, I left. The manager Sarah called me and wanted to rebook my appt. I asked why? I'm never seen on time. She said it is Doctor Vrostos policy that all patients are seen based upon their scheduled appointment time even if they come in 25 to 30 minutes late. What that means is if you have a 10:10 am appt and you come in 30 min late, say at 10:40 am, they are seen immediately. Pushing everyone else behind. The staff stood around gossiping for 20 minutes waiting for all these late people to show up and when they did, they were behind. What a dumb way to run a business. Sara the manager explained to me the Dr stands firm on that policy and refused to let me talk to the Doctor. She went on to say Dr V Never calls patients for complaints or issues. She then agreed that they did not respect my time or me as a patient. It's basically a waste of the Doctors time to deal with patients. I was shocked and could not believe she told me that but she told me not to wait around waiting for a call back because she will never call you back. So the manager was 100% correct a week has gone by and I've heard nothing from the doctor. You know the doctor is great, and if you only go once a year, maybe it's OK to wait that long out for an appointment. But when you go many times a year, it is totally disrespectful to be treated like that. I've already found a new doctor already have an appointment.
