I guess I'm glad that I received such appalling service from the office of Dr. Nancy Opara & Assoc (namely Lester Eisenberg) in Feb 2021 (read my review if you dare), because I was able to make an appointment with Dr. David Weber & the wonderful staff at The Eye Zone!
From the 1st phone call, I was treated by cheery, professional people. I was informed to wait in my car until phoned to come upstairs. This is normal & acceptable in these times. Upon my arrival, I was greeted by a staff of 3 smiling people. I was asked to wait in the entry while a woman took my temperature. The doctor & staff never stopped smiling!
Dr. Weber did make a comment that I felt was not at all PC, but we got over it. He thought that because I had a Hispanic surname that I didn't speak English so he spoke to me in Spanish. When I told him that I don't speak Spanish, I speak English, he commented that my English is very good. I was born & bred right here in Dallas, my surname is my ex-hubby's, I told him. My Dad's roots are Scottish/Irish! When in doubt, please refrain from comments that trigger one to feel patronized. But, my dad would probably have made the same kind of blunder.
Anyway, we did get past that... he escorted me to the exam room, asked me to be seated, asked me to describe any problems I'm having, did not rush me or pressure me, made lots of silly jokes, gave me a cute little paper to cover my eye (he must be a hit with kiddos) and assured me that they are very vigilant about their sanitation processes. When I seemed to change an answer to a previous question, he re-checked my vision to get the most exact data he could. Our visit lasted over an hour. He then escorted me to a kind woman who helped me pick out my frames. She picked out the perfect frames for me! The cashier who checked me out told me I have fantastic insurance, which made me happy! We all laughed and visited a minute before I left.
When my glasses arrived. I was treated in the same manner, start to finish. I wish I had paid more attention to the woman's name who assisted me, she was very professional and yet very friendly at the same time. They informed me that my glasses came with these sun shades for outdoors, but since I need my glasses for reading the doc said, use them for reading on the beach! It will be a long year before I get to enjoy their company again, but I urge to check them out. It will be a nice experience.
Customer service is almost always hit or miss, people can have 'off' days, but this group seem to be happy all the time. read more
