    I had an extremely frustrating and disappointing experience at Southwest Orlando Eye Care…read more Before my appointment, I completed all required paperwork and provided my insurance information in advance. Yet when I arrived, they couldn't find my insurance in their system. After unnecessary back-and-forth, they eventually located it -- something that should have been handled before I walked in the door. It only got worse from there. Once they realized I needed a full eye evaluation and assessment of my scleral lenses, they informed me I had been scheduled with the wrong doctor. My options were to either wait another hour or reschedule entirely. Since I had already driven an hour each way, I agreed to wait. Then I was told the doctor only spends 20 minutes per patient -- and that if I actually needed scleral lens fitting or proper evaluation, I would have to come back on another day. At that point it became very clear: their priority was protecting the doctor's schedule, not providing patient-centered care. There was zero ownership of the scheduling mistake, zero attempt to accommodate the situation meaningfully, and no concern for the fact that I had invested two hours of driving time. Healthcare is supposed to be about patients. Instead, I felt like an inconvenience to their calendar. This was a complete waste of my time. If you value efficiency, professionalism, and being treated like a patient rather than a scheduling problem, I would strongly suggest looking elsewhere.

    We contacted this office in an emergency situation, and not an established customer, in hopes of…read moregetting a same-day appointment. The receptionist said that their schedule was full, but that she'd ask the doctor if he could squeeze me in. After inquiring, she asked how quickly we could get there, as the doctor agreed to see me right away. I was relieved and grateful that he was willing to see me. After arriving at the office, we filled out paperwork and were quickly called back. We first met with Victoria. She was so kind and helpful with my situation. She asked pertinent questions, and did everything she could to keep me as comfortable as possible. She performed a few tests, and was patient and caring in doing so, as I was very uncomfortable. She was able to resolve my concern, and went to get the doctor to complete my exam. Shortly after, Dr. Nowell came in and completed the exam. He was also very kind, and he confirmed that there were no additional concerns. Overall, I was so appreciative of my experience with this office. The doctor and his staff were compassionate and kind, and they performed a thorough exam that I was relieved about when we left. I will gladly return to this office for future routine exams, and would recommend them to family and friends. If you are looking for an eye care provider in the area, consider this office!
