First time coming here. They was able to accommodate me with a very high prescription. The doctor i saw was super sweet. It was some.wat crowded but judging from my experience.eye one love's this place. But the wait wasn't long at all. My entire visit including a detailed eye exam with a complimentary pair of contacts was less than an hour read more

Great eye doctors, great staff; consistent service and very friendly. I have been a patient for years.

This office accommodated me as I visited NOLA for the Super Bowl. I realized I didn't have enough contacts to last me the entire week. They were able to get in touch with my optometrist from back home and provided me with great service. The doctor even interacted with me even though I was not an established patient. That is rare!! Thanks so much Dr. Johnson and Staff. read more

Was given a clip board with paperwork and told to sit down and fill it out I asked about co-pay and was told she didn't know First tech verbalized her disappointment that I was still wearing contacts and delegated my butt to the "time-out" church pew in the middle of the hall. I had to ask TWICE for directions to water to wash my hands. Doctor was impatient and passive aggressive which resulted in me receiving a TOTALLY USELESS prescription. I had to demand and then INSIST that I get a damn receipt for $100 co-pay that miraculously appeared when it was time to leave! I would caution anyone considering treatment at this prescription FACTORY! This office is manned with uneducated rude, entitled staff and needs a total deep cleaning to get rid of the dirt and dust bunnies! read more

Primary Eye Care gave me the most thorough eye exam I've ever had. For the first time, it felt like I was sitting with my primary care physician--not just getting my vision checked, but having my overall health considered through the lens of my eye health. My doctor took the time to explain everything in detail and made thoughtful connections between what they saw during the exam and how it could relate to my general well-being. The entire staff was friendly, professional, and made the experience smooth from start to finish. I walked away feeling seen, heard, and truly cared for. Highly recommend Primary Eye Care for anyone looking for more than just a routine check-up. read more

Dr Johnson has been my family doctor for many years we love going to the office the staff is very nice and helpful I send all my co- workers they and there families. read more

I called about my appointment for tomorrow and got talked over and yelled at because I asked questions. I needed to know why I wasn't informed ahead of time about an insurance issue. I forgot to ask the lady name but whomever schedules the appointments are extremely rude. read more

Parking isn't ideal, but that's the only thing that didn't go smoothly during my visit. I made an appointment over the phone, arrived on time, was seen after very little wait, and everyone was helpful. It was my first eye appointment in many years, but now I'm going to visit yearly for a check up. The interior is very beautiful! read more

Staff is friendly enough. Very busy office. I felt the doctor was very thorough and attentive. Staff took COVID precautions seriously. I would visit again. The only thing I did not appreciate is the contact fitting price of approximately $70 on top of copay and no notification before the appointment. I do not understand why I have to pay the equivalent of a box of contacts for me to try a pair of contacts. I guess this office softens the blow by deducting the fee from your insurance allowance. read more

I called to see if they had my contact prescription in stock. The lady who answered was extremely rude. She kept cutting me off. She told me she couldn't check over the phone I would have to physically come if I wanted to know if they had my prescription in stock. "I am no where near the contacts so I am not going to go look". Frustrating to have an unpleasant and useless conversation. read more

Great, warm, friendly, and professional staff. First time patient, felt like I've been going there for years. Any and every question I had, they answered. All in all, a great experience and I believe I have found my new regular eyecare provider. Keep up the great job! read more

Unfortunately I had a very rude encounter with whom, I have come to find out is the owner of this establishment. Instead of saying, "We made a mistake and should have scheduled your follow-up before you left" or "We should've let you know that you have to schedule your follow-up on your own," I was told " We don't do this for clients". I would have been fine with either because miss communication happens and they were very busy that day. She was scolding, belittling and down right nasty in her responses to me. She questioned me with sarcastic laughter and snickers when I said I was trying to see my doctor for an eye ulcer follow-up. Instead of educationing me on thier policies and means of operations, she was, for lack of better words, an "ass hole about it". I try to frequent black establishments because I love giving business to my people and keeping our money in our neighborhoods, but this will be my last visit. I had another incident during my previous eye exam here when the practitioner completed my eye exam with my contacts in and told me I have good vision. I said I know my contacts work great that's why I'm here for a re-up. She said she didn't know I had contacts in and then asked me to take them out to redo the test. Afterwards she gave me a prescription that was lower than my current contacts and I asked, "How can that be possible? Did my eyes sight get better? " She asked me what I meant by that. I provided her with my prescription for both eyes and she responded, "Oh! I guess we can go with that." I was uneasy about this but have had my eyes stay the same for the last 2 years so I went along. Very weird but I've come to the conclusion this is not the doctors office for me. With today's incident and my previous experience, I can't and will not support this establishment. read more

Glad to see social distancing and masks being observed by staff and patients. Everyone was courteous and helpful. Love the decor and great repurposing of older buildings. read more

I have been coming to this place many years me and my kids I've never had any problems the staff is awesome and Dr.J is the best

I've been coming here for years, everyone is always very professional and friendly. Recommended Dr. Johnson to my daughter and now she and her daughter are patients also. read more

Dr. Johnson and her staff were incredibly welcoming, professional and efficient. She was very personable and seemed very open-minded. Her office is also incredibly aesthetically pleasing if it matters to you. My wife noticed it and I asked Dr Johnson about. She said she does the decorating as a hobby. read more

Wonderful! I'm here visiting and my boyfriend forgot his contacts, these kind women stayed AFTER CLOSING to help us out. They were so kind and accommodating and literally saved our trip. read more

Professionalism and great customer service. I went there initially because it is close to my home and because they take my insurance. I am so happy we found them. Top notch optometrists and support staff. A great selection of glasses. Honest and fair business practice. read more

I've been going here for about two years. The pricing for my prescription contacts is very reasonable compared to the significant mark-up elsewhere. The office is comfortable and staff is very attentive. Dr. Johnson is committed to her patients and it shows. read more

Dr Johnson and their staff are amazing. They are very friendly, courteous, and caring. Dr. Johnson went through the extra effort to find me affordable contact lenses. Not only that, I was moving to California soon after my appointment and she personally went through the extra effort to call me and ensure I got my lenses.She did this even knowing I was moving to CA and thus would not receive my services again. Great people, great service, great knowledge and patient care. Best eye appt experience I have ever had! Highly recommend! read more

We Found this eye doctor from my insurance website while my wife was looking & we couldn't have found a better eye doctor! This office is simply amazing from the friendly staff, quick service, and amazing follow ups!! I think I have found my family eye doctor for the foreseeable future. read more

Super friendly and helpful staff. Typically short wait times and everyone is working hard to serve you. Family environment for sure

I was visiting from out of town and had a problem with my contacts. Dr Johnson and her team took great care of me!

Dr. Johnson has been my eye doctor for 22 years. 22 years ago, I missed my appointment with Dr. Johnson (this was the appointment to find out if I had Glaucoma or not) it was so important that I received medicine and a treatment plan, that she drove to my house to get me...and we've been together ever since! I highly recommend Primary Eyecare!!! read more

See all

This was my first visit. The staff were friendly and attentive. Dr. Thurman was awesome.

It breaks my heart to have to leave this review. I strive to frequent Black owned businesses, but this place is a no for me. From the poor phone service, to the actual owner that acts in a very non professional manner! My daughter was scheduled for an appointment at the Washington St location. I called an hour before the appointment to confirm, and was told that the appointment was scheduled for the Broad St location. I was confused as to why, and the receptionist informed me that they no longer have a Doctor at the Washington St location. So when was I to be informed of this change? No call, text, email, no communication at all. As I asked questions, I was rudely spoken to as if I had done something wrong. To be treated with so much disrespect, is unbelievable. I would definitely recommend this establishment get more professional people that actually knows how to speak, get more organized, and definitely get the office as a whole, more training as it relates to customer service. Beginning with the SUPERIOR! I wanted to be able to brag about this establishment, but unfortunately I can't. Instead I would not recommend to anyone! read more

Great customer service. Had a new patient exam that took just about an hour to get in and out. Everyone one was really friendly and helpful.

Primary Eye Care has been my provider for glasses since I was a kid. The services are good but they move kinda slow. The good thing is you get next day pick up for your glasses read more

This place is cozy & beautiful. They offer awesome & swift services & have the most friendly staff! I only wish they would accept online appointments considering the long holds via landline... read more

Never got past the poor phone service. I'm sure they loose customers before they gain them.

This is such a great place. I live on the north shore, but work in NOLA and needed to go to a place near my office. Dr. Johnson and her staff are all very friendly, the office is super cozy ,and everyone is attentive. Highly recommended. read more

I wish I could give no stars that would defiantly be more fitting. They are extremely unprofessional and a complete waste of time. The Dr. lacks customer service or people skills. Staff don't give any information and they are not on the same page. One told me one thing dr. come back and say something else. They couldn't even find my sons chart. It was almost time for lunch so I was locked in and everybody just stood at the door ready to leave. So I wasn't able to get his glasses or prescription because they claim he never had an exam. COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME!! read more

Very professional and fast service. Dr. Johnson was great and the staff very friendly. Thank you.

By far the best eye clinic I've dealt with. Staff is very nice and extremely helpful. Most thorough eye exam I've received. I get my contacts and glasses there. Recently I called about an eye infection and was seen within an hour of the call. Highly recommend. read more

Thank god for this place!!! Best service ever. I flew into New Orleans for a cruise and forgot my contacts and only had the pair of daily's in my eyes which wasn't going to work for a 5 night cruise. I only had 4 hours until the cruise left so it was a very short window to figure something out. I called right when they opened and they were so happy to help. They had my contacts ready very quickly and I went by and picked them up so easily! It was very fast service and everyone in the office was so friendly, nice, and eager to help me. I can't recommend this place enough! read more

I called in a panic hoping they could fix my very expensive Anne et Valentin eyeglasses that I just sat on! They took me right away and after making sure I knew there was a risk of breakage, fixed them perfectly! They did NOT charge me for this service. I so appreciate their professionalism and graciousness! Looks like they are a very busy practice. I can see why! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! ~Laura B. Chicago, IL read more

In response to the agency's comment regarding patients' responsibility, when you call and told the rep ( your tech) is out sick and it takes 3 weeks to get a response - THAT'S POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE ‼ & That's with me calling once or twice a week. Check your facts. This is an example of how your office reacts instead of professionally responding to customer concerns. read more

In an early morning mugging, I took a fall and broke my glasses. I called several places and everyone was booked until after the weekend. These guys were booked as well, but squeezed me in after I told them my situation. They were very efficient in dealing with a full waiting room. However, I was treated with courtesy and professionalism at every step. The Optometrist took extra care to make sure my eyes were not damaged in the fall I sustained and even set me up with some sample contacts so I could see things during my vacation. These guys took a bad event and helped turn things around! read more

Great office!! I was recommend by friend Kasey. The staff was very polite and I so appreciate their professionalism and graciousness! Dr. Johnson was so nice and sweet, listens to me and carefully tracks the changes in my vision providing me with the perfect prescription for my vision. Excellent customer service. read more

I recently visits this office with my 5 year old son. The service was great but the policies in regards to certain procedures are a contradiction to what my insurance states. The frames were under warranty as long as you have all the pieces which was impossible due to the frame breaking at school and he was not in my care. Her staff clearly stated if you don't have all the pieces they can not and won't be have to replace the frame. I spoke with my insurance company while in their office and found out that was absolutely positively not true. I had them to give me a prescription for his lens and will be patronizing another optometrist. I won't ever visit this office every again. read more
