    I went to this establishment expecting top treatment from a specialist, but I was sadly…read more disappointed by almost every aspect! First, my intake was ignored, as I had written down all of my allergies to not only medications, but food coloring as well! The drops used to dilate my sensitivity eyes were loaded with yellow dye #5! I noticed a white clouded effect in my vision for many hours past my 2:15 p.m. visit, well past 11 p.m. along with swelling and itching and redness that lasted into the following day! I looked up the drops used for dilation and found out they contain the dye. The woman who did my intake put the drops in minutes later! That was the beginning of my nightmare. The doctor questioned why I was using two eye drops for glaucoma when I don't have it. My previous eye specialist had me on them for years for a Condition in my right eye, after my retina tore, to keep the pressure down. This doctor wanted me to go off them for several weeks to see if the pressure went high, indicating glaucoma? No. I know my last doctor was treating me for something different. Then it came time to discuss eyeglasses. My insurance allow me one pair of glasses per year at ZERO CO-PAY! With anti scratch, tinted lenses and even progressives for nothing extra! The woman at the desk insisted that I was wrong, saying, "your insurance never gives you a free pair!" Well, yes they do and I got a pair last year for free, all the bells and whistles! Even a trip focal is covered, zero co-pay! So, I just called my insurance provider and requested a printable copy of my vision benefit and it's in black and white, FREE! BEWARE! They gave me a list of only eyeglass/ opticians they use and told me I had to pick one of them! My insurance company said, "you pick a good place you're comfortable with and takes our vision plan (most local places do!) and we'll cover the glasses 100%!" Yay me, yay to my insurance company! Thank God I knew better! Find another reputable eye specialist!

    2 hours waiting and 5 minutes with the Doctor. I have been going here for the last 2 years. Place…read morewas jammed and overbooked. I will be finding a new doctor.

    A thousand dollars for an eye exam and the cheapest glasses. That's crazy. My insurance paid for…read morehalf and I the other, and that is still double of what I paid for my Coach glasses and an exam at my last place. The eye exam was okay and a bit stiff. The lady who helped me pick out my glasses was the best part of the whole experience. She was very professional and personable. The glasses selection is small and limited. Overall, I wasn't impressed and the up-charges soured the experience for me. I won't be returning.

    I had been seeking an eye doctor - and while on a walk in my neighborhood - happened by Dr. Muller…read more I never met her - she might be great - but the experience I had with her greeter - front office was abhorrent. I walked in - smiled and asked about the doctor - The lady up front - never once looked up at me. I asked 3 THREE times as to the cost of seeing the doctor - she refused to answer except that it was covered by medicare - I still wanted to know the cost - as I'd been to a doctor this year and didn't know if they covered more than one visit. She finally responded - and then stilll never having eye contact with me - I asked when I could get in to see the doctor - after another moment of NOT looking me in the EYES - I turned and left - THEN she looked up from what she was doing. How rude - how suprising - how disappointing - I'm sad to never have even met Dr. Laura Muller. Please train your staff to show some manners and kindness - shocked at how rude - I find Tampa to be so gentile / NOT Dr. Muller's front office staff!
