Love Dr. Burkhart, excellent interaction
I get a thorough exam from Dr. Burkhart and am completely satisfied with it. I like frames that are rimless on the bottom only and you do not have many for women to choose between. I found one men’s frame that I liked on me but the side pieces looked too industrial for me to select them.
Eye exam and doctor were great. Getting new lenses was the worst experience I’ve had. Order placed 12/21/2022. Called back in mid January to check status and was on hold for 30 minutes waiting to see if they were in. A week later I came to office and a helpful person at the desk said she would follow up and let me know where they were. She said there was in issue at the lab and they were remaking them. I stopped at the office the first week of February and after checking with the lab, the were being packaged for shipping. I picked up glasses the following day. The didn’t seem correct, but I was told to try them a couple of days. Still not good. Came to office on 2/13/2023 to ask them to be checked, and I was told they were a prescription for distance, which I didn’t ask for. I was clear when placing my initial order that i needed computer glasses. Now, I am waiting again. I paid nearly 2 months ago for a product that I still don’t have. During the initial month-plus wait, no one ever c
Dr Burkhart is wonderful, but the new IPad system is terrible. He spend more time clicking the IPAD, than he does talking to me. He should not have to worry about billing. He should just be concerned with me and my eyes.
Customer service and quality care
Professional and kind
Being a person that has lived a total of 3 days in IN, I felt like I knew the doctor and the excellent staff for years. People that use your services are lucky the minute they walk in the door! Sincerely Danny Susick
Thorough examination, friendly service.

Was treated with respect and problem was fixed.
The staff and Dr. Burkhart have always been great. The only thing that I think can be approved upon is the wait time. For me the neuropathy and arthritis are killers if I have to sit very long.
