    I have been a patient of Dr. Sika for 24 years. He is an excellent physician and the only reason I…read morestayed with this practice as long as I did. I had an appointment scheduled 9 months ago and confirmed it when I received a text reminder on December 27. Today, I drove 40 minutes each way, arranged childcare for my 2- and 4-year-old, and arrived on time--only to be told I did not have an appointment. The front desk staff rudely and repeatedly told me that her manager "called and canceled" my appointment on January 6, 2026 at 3:30 PM. I received no phone call, no voicemail, and no written notification. I even checked my phone records through my service provider, which confirm no incoming call at that time. Despite this, the staff member continued to insist that the call was "documented in the system," with no apology and no effort to resolve the situation. This resulted in over 1.5 hours of wasted driving, unnecessary childcare arrangements, and a completely avoidable disruption to my day. Dr. Sika is excellent--but this office's front desk staff and scheduling practices are unprofessional and unreliable. After 24 years as a loyal patient, I will never return to this office. A practice that cancels appointments without actually notifying patients--and then treats them poorly for showing up--is not worthy of anyone's time.

    Phenomenal group of doctors. Been a patient for 65 years, 4 eye surgeries. Their group of doctors…read moreare the best of the best!

    Extremely surprised at the positive reviews. It's possible my experience is not the norm, but it…read morewas very stressful. Was not able to schedule a flow up. The doctor would not answer any questions. The person who helped me select frames was not polite and acted like I was stupid when I asked basic questions about pricing and my insurance. Receptionist was rude on the phone. They also took a 5 day vacation for Labor Day? Will absolutely being making the switch back to my family optometrist and make the hour long drive as it was clearly worth it. Hoping this is not a normal experience. I have never left a negative review at any doctors office before in my life. The experience was that bad.

    While I really do like Dr. Dowd and his staff at the office, the care I receive from the doctor as…read morewell as the convenience of location, I can only give 2 stars. After eye exams are complete, you are required to make payment before you leave. I questioned why it would not go through my insurance, and was told I only have a co-pay. Flash forward two weeks later, I received my insurance claim showing what they covered and how much I owe out of pocket. A difference of $105!!! Huge difference!! I call the office to question that and was referred to another number for billing questions. I was told they had not yet received the payment from my insurance and I could call back in a week or so if I didn't get my reimbursement. A second call to billing 3 weeks later, I was told they have not received the insurance payment and to call back in August (a month and a half down the road, my insurance sent them a check 5/26). I questioned why the office made me pay all upfront without sending to insurance and was told that some office staff don't know how to collect. So easy to take the money from the rip, yet a long and winded process to get my money back! My advice is if you want a good eye doctor, go see Dr. Dowd but DO NOT pay all upfront or you'll be in hounding them for a refund.
