However, it was after I brought my 4 year old toddler to her recently that prompted me to review her outstanding rapport with young children. My kiddo does not like medical visits of any kind. I thought he was going to be okay going in at first because of all glasses on display that got him curious and interested. But once we sat him near an examination machine and Dr. Ha started asking me questions about him, he knew it was yet another medical examination and started to bawl. Once he starts crying, it's not easy to calm him down. Dr. Ha immediately gave him attention and asked if he wanted to play some games, with numbers and letters. Told him that he will see a balloon inside. Asked if he knows his colors and to tell her the color of the balloon. I'm stunned that she got him to sit still (we're talking 4 year old here) for about 20 minutes for various exams. Highly recommended! On the phone, she said as long as the child knows their alphabet, they are old enough to get an exam with her.

I have no history that would indicate I needed the imaging and have never gotten charged extra fees at any other optometrist. 2. Sanitary concerns! They use a lot of machines in this office. There were multiple other people at the office at the time. I never saw Dr. Ha wipe off a machine before or after usage. She also tried to not give me my eyeglasses prescription even though I told her I primarily wear glasses. I had to go back and explicitly ask for it.

When I arrived, they greeted me at the door, the ladies were all very friendly. The techs were very knowledgeable. The doctor was very thorough and professional during the exam. I had a vision plan but didn't know much and the office staff helped me find my coverage and optimize my glasses based on my plan. For glasses, the office had a nice selection of frames and helped guide me through the process (I had not had Rx glasses before). Location was nice because they have a little parking lot which means you don't have to search for a spot and pay a meter like most places in Somerville. Highly recommend.

I won't go into great detail, but I've had a medical condition for the past month that has…read moreprevented me from driving. One of my requirements from the NJMVC to reacquire my drivers license is to provide them with results from a vision test. I don't use my glasses currently and I'm not required by the state to wear them while driving. I called SFE on Wednesday (5/8/19) to obtain the strength of my last prescription glasses so that I can replace my old and scratched lenses in order to properly perform my vision test. After filling out my release form, I dropped it off in person (as I was not allowed to fax or email it over). As I dropped it off (since I currently do not have the ability to drive) I requested from Wendi, the receptionist, that she please call me when the records are completed so I could coordinate with someone for a ride over to pick them up. She confirmed this by reading my phone number from my file out loud to me to check that it was still the same. Yesterday (5/9/19), I called the office around 4:45 PM to see why I haven't received a call to see if my documents were ready as I was promised. I was told in a very condescending tone that "they've been here waiting since 2:00 PM." When I asked over the phone why I didn't receive a phone call, I got a song and a dance about how "I never asked for a phone call". You literally read my number out loud to me. I'm not allowed to drive. Why would I lie about asking for a phone call? Not my fault she's unorganized and didn't write anything down. When I mentioned that I'm not trying to argue about this over the phone, again, I got a condescending tone of "well, they're here now". Nice. I have 45 days to submit all of my tests to the NJMVC, so I had no choice but to find a ride for this day. Once I walked in, without saying a word, I was handed an envelope with all of my personal medical records. No identification was asked for, no date of birth, nothing. She just assumed I was the correct person picking up my documents. HUGE HIPAA VIOLATION!! I said "that's it?" She said "yup." Unfortunately, my girlfriend was present for all of my recent trips and had to witness all of this first-hand...but on we go with our lives. Thank you Somerville Family Eyecare for all of the hard work and effort you've put into running your practice. I appreciate what you've been able to do to correct my vision over the past 12 years. Unfortunately, I'm not going to allow my records to be in the hands of someone so careless that they just hand them out to anyone that just walks in the front door. Oh, and I also don't appreciate the nasty attitude from Wendi. I was originally going to see if SFE could provide my vision test since I now have vision insurance for the first time in 4 years, but I think I'd prefer to go anywhere else.

My appointment today with Dr. Bargoud, very late in the afternoon, went well beyond an hour, yet he continually focused on solutions to my challenges. I'm grateful that we have such a fine practice here in New Providence.

After asking him several straight forward questions on behalf of my friend who had just been given their eye exam there, he was quick to dismiss all of then with short, muttered answers.

From the beginning I've always been impressed by the quality of care and services rendered by all doctors and staff. The office environment is bright, clean, modern, and inviting. They used to have a Keurig coffee station in the waiting room (before COVID-19). I believe that Dr. Corbin-Simon is the owner which would make this optometry practice a M/WBE. Highly recommend the added services to screen for eye health even though these services are not traditionally covered by insurance. OptoMap ($39) looks at the back of the eye, and iWellness ($39) looks at the layers of the eye. I requested both for a discounted price of $59. I found the optomap reading to be very thorough and illuminating although, but iWellness was not so simple to understand.
