The office got in contact with me twice before my initial appointment. The day before they asked me to called back to confirm (even though I confirmed it through text message). So I did. Gave them my information, and my insurance. The lady who I called back stated that if there were any issues with my insurance she will call back to notify me. Right?? I work at a clinic as well, and so when I trekked my way to the office and they told me my insurance isn’t applicable for coverage, I was shocked. In a professional clinic, you wouldn’t expect empty promises, but this office proved me wrong. I’m not going to judge the doctor since I didn’t get to see her, however this office should at least let get in contact with patients if there’s any problem so that they aren’t wasting their time commuting and waiting for the office to check the eligibility.
Very nice office, front desk staff was very friendly, the doctor was very nice & made me feel comfortable during my appointment.

Very clear very kind staff 10/10 recommendated
Verified patient
This office is deceiving and dishonest. After the appointment ended they charged me a pretty large amount for a contact lense test when I specifically asked for a regular eye check up and asked them if there were any fees or copayments. They said no other fees would charged and the doctor didn’t mention anything while she was seeing me either. At the end, after seeing my obvious disapproval for the charge - they dropped the price from by 1/4. This made me feel extremely weird since I thought I was paying for a medical service and it seems they just made up prices as they went. Complete dishonesty here which bummed me out since the doctor had great bedside manners. Just wished they were honest with patients!!!
