Very professional care and great optometrists on staff as well as assistant staff…read more They staff got my husband in and out very quickly and got him fitted with his new glasses. Which it didn't take hardly any time at all for them to actually come in so we could pick them up. They have a great range of hours and they usually can get you in pretty quickly! They accept most insurance plans, and are great to work with on billing. Parking is super easy, as well as finding their location. Will be coming back for my pair of glasses and some prescription sun glasses for my husband!!

Listening to barking dogs during eye exams and while picking out very expensive glasses... it's just not a great experience. There are plenty of other eye doctors to go to in the 515.

I did sleep consistently in my contacts and ended up with corneal ulcers, but these docs were not at fault and took good care of me and I got the ulcers cleared up. The staff have been wonderful. Including the docs. I had Dr. Halstad(or something like that) she was awesome. And Dr. Lucia(or something like that, it's a woman) was also awesome. I have to get my eyes checked twice a year or more often, and it's been great here. I got my first bifocals here and they are awesome as well! It's clean. The staff is wonderful. Family friendly. Prices are good. I got mono vision contacts and love them. And I now take them out at bedtime. I even got prescription contacts that made my eyes look like wolves. And I've reviewed a lot of places. I know good and bad service. And in the(bare minimum of)15+ visits over the last 6+ years, never a bad visit. No idea where all the negative reviews are coming from. Lot parking.

He could not authorize me to pick it up, he could not email and ask them to release it via email or mail to him. Federal law does allow the release verbally and/or via email. The customer service help line was able to give us what we needed in less than five minutes. Please educate managers and staff on federal law.

I came by since my in-laws recommended them while we were here from out of town, and I wish Dr. Kahnk and his office were closer to my home! We may need to visit Ankeny more often just to get our regular eye care here.

My daughter was charged $39 for an eye photo and I wasn't charged for it. I was speaking to the front desk and I hear oops and the line goes dead. I wait for a reasonable amount of time for him to call me back because he had my name, my daughter's name and my phone number. No call back. I called to speak to the office manager. She will be out of the office til next week sometime maybe. I wasn't happy during my visit too. Didn't answer my questions and literally the fastest eye exam ever. In and out in 15 mins? Sounds great but I had questions. I was told they weren't doing eye dilation anymore because they have this new camera that didn't make it necessary I wasn't charged but my daughter was, even though they don't do eye dialation anymore. I really liked the old business but I have had enough of their just treating you like a number on an assembly line. Then hanging up on a person and not even having the courtesy to call them back.

My last appointment I scheduled at 4 pm and wasn't even seen by the nurse, no not the doctor, the nurse until 5:30pm. Then they have the audacity to ask you to show up 15 minutes before your scheduled appointment in order to fill out paperwork so that you can be seen by the doctor during your appointment time. If I can't even be seen by anyone for an hour and a half after my scheduled appointment don't ask me to show up early in order to keep on time.
