I am extremely disappointed with the level of service I received at this office. During my initial…read morevisit, I waited nearly an hour before seeing the actual doctor. The provider was unable to give me a definitive diagnosis, only what they believed the issue might be, and prescribed medication. I was then instructed to return in 5-6 days for a follow-up, which required another $50 copay. Unfortunately, the follow-up visit was even more frustrating. I waited approximately 40 minutes before being taken to an exam room, only to be moved back into the waiting area because another room wasn't available. I then waited an additional 30 minutes before the provider returned. After paying another $50 copay, the only recommendation I received was to purchase an ointment sold by the office, and I was told the damage to my eye is permanent. Between my two visits, I had a very frustrating experience with the office over the phone. I brought my concerns to the attention of a staff member, and she assured me that she would look into the issue and call me back. Unfortunately, I never received that call. That left me feeling as though my concerns were simply brushed aside rather than taken seriously, and it gave me little confidence that the issue would ever be addressed or corrected. While the staff was courteous and professional during my visits, the office itself appears to be disorganized and possibly understaffed. Long wait times, poor communication, lack of follow-through, and the overall handling of my care made me feel like my time and money were not valued. I don't recommend this location based on my experience. I will be contacting my insurance company to discuss whether these services were billed appropriately, and I am also considering filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau because I left feeling that I paid for a second visit that provided very little additional care or value. I hope this office takes these concerns seriously and improves its scheduling, communication, and accountability so future patients don't have the same experience.

My first time seeing an eye Dr since grade school. Had to finally get glasses due to my T2…read morediabetes. I was given an eye test and then rushed into a room to try out glasses. The "dr" very quickly went over options for lenses and even though I had questions she rushed out and just suggested to get the transition lenses. They said they had package deals. I ended up paying $500 for glasses that I can only see out of the top half. The lower half is too fuzzy. I was going to go back and complain but I researched the frames they sold me and found them online for like $40, would have been $175 with the prescription lenses. Such a ripoff and clearly only interested in selling extremely overpriced glasses. Will never be stepping foot in here again, neither will my family.
