    Professional, friendly office. Been our family eye doctor for years. Good selection. Very accommodating, especially in an emergency.

    I love Dr R Purnell and his son Dr S Purnell. They are the most wonderful eye doctors! I highly recommend them.

    Hello everyone, I am writing a review to provide my experience during the visit to this office…read more(Clifton location). I have been attending this clinic for a long time, and had no issues until yesterday. I came in due to discomfort in my left eye. The doctor stated that I will need to use a medication based on the diagnosis. However, the pharmacy never obtained the prescription. When I called the clinic, I was told they would speak with the doctor and call me back. I never received a call back. Today I called the clinic for a follow-up. The individual I spoke to told me that the manager will call me because this was an urgent matter. Once again, I did not receive a call. Eventually, the pharmacy informed me that the prescribed medication was over the counter; however, the doctor only instructed me to use it at night and did not provide a specific timeframe for use. When I called again for clarification, I was told the doctor was unavailable and that I would need to wait until Monday. Overall, this was a negative experience that I do not wish on others. For individuals considering this clinic, I strongly recommend confirming that prescriptions are sent to the pharmacy, asking for clear instructions from the doctor, and addressing any questions you may have. Unfortunately, the clinic's limited support for the high cost is unacceptable. Thank you. (No updates as of now 11/21/25) Hola a todos, estoy escribiendo esta critica para compartir mi experiencia durante una visita a esta clínica. He estado asistiendo a esta clínica por mucho tiempo y no había tenido problemas hasta ayer. Fui debido a una molestia en mi ojo izquierdo. El doctor indicó que necesitaría usar un medicamento según el diagnóstico. Sin embargo, la farmacia nunca recibió la receta. Cuando llamé a la clínica, me dijeron que hablarían con el doctor y me devolverían la llamada. Nunca recibí respuesta. Hoy llamé nuevamente a la clínica para hacer un seguimiento. La persona con la que hablé me dijo que el gerente me llamaría porque se trataba de un asunto urgente. Una vez más, no recibí ninguna llamada. Eventualmente, la farmacia me informó que el medicamento recetado era de venta libre; sin embargo, el doctor solo indicó que debía usarlo por la noche y no proporcionó un limite en cuando tengo que parar de usar el producto. Cuando llamé nuevamente para obtener aclaraciones, me dijeron que el doctor no estaba disponible y que tendría que esperar hasta el lunes. En general, esta fue una experiencia negativa que no deseo que otros vivan. Para quienes estén considerando esta clínica, recomiendo encarecidamente confirmar que las recetas se envíen a la farmacia, pedir instrucciones claras al doctor y aclarar cualquier duda que puedan tener. Lamentablemente, el soporte limitado de la clínica por el alto costo es inaceptable. Gracias.
