    I had cataract surgery in both eyes. I was treated with respect and compassion. All of my…read morequestions and concerns were addressed. I felt cared for and my surgeon Dr. Michael was great. He took the time to explain the procedure before I went back. I would definitely recommend them. Scheduling with Sarah and transportation with Jeffery were also handled very efficiently, very kind.

    The waiting room is beautiful…read more The first time I went there, they ran us through like cattle, 10 at a time to be taken in the back and then out the door and then the next 10. it didn't feel very personal. They they not really interacted with me. They just said, open your eyes. Be still. I was informed by them five years ago they were the only ones in the state that does the surgery. So I had to do it with them. They charged me $1880 for their facility fee. On top of my copay. My insurance won't pay their facility fee. This fall I had secondary cataracts that had to be removed Again they told me the same thing and recharging me the same price I called around, talk to my insurance and found a minimum of 10 other doctors in this town that will do that surgery and charge my insurance without me having to pay a huge facility fee... I don't think it's fair, especially to the elderly who are living on Medicare. The people the front desk were very nice.

    I came to Anchorage in 1979. I went to Alaska Eye Care Center when they first opened. Back then…read morethey were the chic place to go, now, all the original founding doctors are gone, replaced by money hungry grubbers. Gone are the carpeted floors and quiet, spacious exam rooms where the doctors took time to LISTEN to you took the time to answer questions and just plain worked with you. The assistants were all polite and all the assistant pre-doc exam rooms were dark, quiet and private. Now it's a Walmart conveyor belt shakedown business. A bunch of women who, being foreigners, tell you what to do, and when you attempt to explain something, they look at you with glazed eyes, giggle, and ignore you to get the pre-exam done as quickly as possible. The doctors' exam room are small, harsh cubicles with no warmth at all, the doctor who dealt with me machine-gunning questions getting the exam done in as short time as he could, his schedule marked out in 30-minute blocks. The sales associates want to rush you through to buy something, and when you think about making a decision they huff openly being impatient. The one assigned to me was openly rude. I got my prescription and left. Sadly, Alaska Eyecare Centers have fallen far indeed since Dr. Diane Thanephon and they others where there. Sad.

    My Ohio driver's license expires in December 2025 and Ohio requires an Acuity and a Horizontal…read morefield test by an eye doctor,, For us seniors over 65 years old, A friend from the VFW in Wasilla recommended Eye care Stopped in yesterday and had a 10 AM appointment next day, I explained to the desk lady, showed her my paperwork showing what tst I needed and I also showed the young girl who qas doing my test, who I thought was the Dr, , But found out differently, , I felt very rushed, the reseptnest also told me she would tell me what my test was going to cost but I was rushed into the room to start the test while she was looking it up for me, Anyway, everyone was very nice but very rushey - rushey, My bill was $660.00 , I was very imbarrest , felt like I was swindled, The test at the DMV in Ohio is free but I was in Alaska and at the recommendation of a friend I am sorry for letting this happen,

    Ok, so i have mixed feelings. The eye doctor was fantastic and there was no wait time as I walked…read moreright into my appointment, but the woman in the glasses department was a little too pushy and it made me leave to buy glasses elsewhere. I have been wearing glasses for 40 years, so I know how to go into a store and pick them out on my own. It felt very much like the young lady was commission based, so she was pushing glasses on to me. It was just too much. I explained, I'm having Lasik done in 2 months, so I just need something to hold me over for a few weeks.. not a $5-$700 pair of glasses combination she was pulling out.. I became so frustrated, I just left and purchased glasses online for a fraction of the cost (also when I mentioned that as an option, she made it clear that was basically tacky and it hurt my feelings a little and she can't promote it.. well no kidding when I got them for $123 with the lenses where as what she was trying to sell me was $300-$400 glasses + $150 lens and then a $320 appointment) for a 2-month pair. With that being said, the doctor was truly AMMMMAZING but I don't need to feel like I'm buying a car when I'm browsing the eye glass selection.
