That's rare these days and it's truly what separates them from your "buy 2 for $99" franchise type stores. Would never buy my glasses anywhere else.

Not shocked at all to find their yelp page and see that someone had the exact same problem as me…read more DO NOT come here if you need contacts. Went for an appointment yesterday to get a contact lens and glasses prescription since it was 2+ years from my last and I needed a new prescription to order more contacts. Called before my appointment to ask what my copayment amount would be and was told $15. Had my appointment (which was 30 mins late even though there was no one else there), and it went fine, Dr. Crump was nice but not exactly personable. After he diagnosed my prescription, he sat me down with Melissa at the front desk to get me a quote on contacts. She instead got me a quote on glasses and contacts and kept pushing me towards using my allotted insurance coverage towards glasses. I have glasses and my prescription barely changed for them so I didn't want to get new ones. I primarily wear contacts anyway, and my prescription for contacts was the same as it had been for the past 7 years I've been wearing them. When I told her I don't want to buy anything today, just wanted a prescription and quote, her entire tone changed and she became quite condescending very quickly. She then proceeded to tell me that I have a $60 copayment for a contact lens evaluation. I wasn't prepared for that and was shocked, because I literally called ahead of time to know exactly how much I needed. When I told her that, she said they probably hadn't run my insurance yet, which is HILARIOUS because the person I spoke on the phone (Her name may have been Lisa but I'm not 100% sure) with had to hang up with me, call VSP, and then call me back to tell me the correct copayment. Anyway, had to have my dad come by and pay it (we also decided to buy a 24pk of lenses bc I really needed them and they said the insurance covered it all but $20). We went home and I reviewed the invoice they gave me and was shocked to see that they charged me $60 for a contact lens FITTING. I've only ever had 1 fitting, which was when I was 14 and they have you try on the contacts and learn how to take care of them and such. I had no such thing done at this place. The doctor asked what contacts I wear, I said Acuvue Oasys and he said Ok. There was no putting contacts in my eyes or anything. So, we called VSP, who was shocked that we were charged so incorrectly. Not only for the "fitting" but also for paying $20 for lenses because I apparently had $80 more dollars of coverage towards contact lenses. My insurance representative also told me that they had sent an authorization over with detailed coverage information prior to my appointment, so there was no reason I should've been charged incorrectly. She called them but they didn't answer so she left a detailed message explaining the coverage and left a number for them to call us back. Shocker, no call. So my dad and I just went over and walked in today with our invoice and receipt. We go up to the desk, explain the situation to Melissa and Lisa (I think was her name), and Melissa rolls her eyes and says that you'll have to wait for Karen to get here, she can explain it to you better than we can. Karen walked in a few minutes later. I caught Karen in a couple lies that put this practice in quite a bad light. We start to explain the situation and bring up the fitting and how I've only ever had 1 fitting back when I first got contacts. She starts to say that well technically when you put contacts in your eyes it counts as a fitting. I NEVER PUT CONTACTS IN MY EYES HERE. there was not even an offer to try them on. Again same exact prescription I've had for years, so why would I need to have a fitting?? I told her that I did not try contacts on and to go ask the doctor if you don't believe me. She stuttered and said well you got a prescription. She next said "I don't know what to tell you, we charge all VSP users for a fitting anytime they get contacts." My insurance company told me there is no reason to get a fitting everytime you get a contact prescription, and that they will be investigating this office to find out if they are fraudulently charging both patients and VSP themselves. Karen proceeded to tell us that Melissa did charge us incorrectly for contacts and that I should not have had to pay anything for contacts because they were fully covered, and that all they could do was refund us the $20 we payed for contacts and charge it to my insurance instead. Overall will not be coming here again. Me and my entire family of 5 will be looking for a new optometrist, and have filed a grievance with VSP.

The eyeglass showroom is absolutely stunning, offering a wide variety of shapes, colors, and styles, including an impressive selection of designer frames and sunglasses. The staff were warm, welcoming, and worked together seamlessly like a well-coordinated team. Dr. Fry was not only professional and knowledgeable but also genuinely friendly and attentive. He took the time to answer all of my questions thoroughly and never made me feel rushed or like he was in a hurry to move on to the next patient. I was especially pleased to learn that Dr. Fry is capable of performing nearly all of the services an ophthalmologist can--aside from surgery--which gave me great confidence in the level of care I was receiving. The entire office was spotless, modern, and equipped with the latest technology, all of which appeared to be in excellent condition.

The lady "selling" me eye glasses stood next to me instead of allowing me space to look for myself. Additionally after review of what was a mistake purchase, I made a call to cancel my frames and requested a copy of my prescription. I was told under no certain circumstances could the prescriptions be emailed to me because of "HIPPA". Drove back to the eye doctor and requested a copy of my prescriptions. I was then only provided 1 of the 2 prescriptions... i had to go back in yet again to get the second prescription because they were trying to pull a fast one on me. As far as not being able to send my prescriptions electronically because of HIPPA the excuse doesn't seem valid to me because when I went in to physically pick them up all I told the front desk was my name. Wasn't even asked to see a drivers license or even check my date of birth. Doesn't sound very HIPPA compliant to me. Know your rights. Just because you see an eye doctor doesn't mean that you need to purchase frames from them especially when they have limited options. They should immediately provide you a copy of your prescription before ever trying to sell you on lenses and frames.

So, I don't think I'll be visiting him any time soon. Since moving here to East Tennessee ten years ago, I've had two eye doctors but neither really did it for me. I was without insurance for two years, and so when I got new insurance, I began my search. I wanted an established practice with a great reputation that was nearby. My search included Hardin Valley Eye Care and because it was nearest to my house, I made an appointment. The minute I walked into the office, I was encouraged. COVID protocols are still being practiced - 1st star; reception and staff were super friendly - 2nd star; I was seen at my appointment time instead of waiting around like other offices - 3rd star; When I met Dr. Travis Thompson, the deal was sealed - 4th star; and they have a large selection of frames - 5th star. I could go on with more stars, but they've already secured my business for years to come. I picked up my glasses today and I haven't seen with such clarity since my eye doctor in California. This is a classy, professional and welcoming practice which I have already recommended to others. So drop by and SEE if they are a FIT for your optical needs.
