Everything about the visit was great except the provider did not listen to what I was telling him. His diagnosis didn’t cover any of my issues I described to him, and then they kept trying to push for me to get glasses that I did not need. The office team was great, but I wasn’t heard at all by the provider

Friendly staff. I've picked this optometrist from my Blue Cross Blue Shield website. However, my insurance was not accepted. I'll look for a doctor in-network next time.

Loved the doctor, I normally always purchased glasses at a box store so the price quote was much higher than expected even with insurance. It felt a little strange to be told I should accept the store promotion rather than use my insurance for the better deal. When questioned the price dropped hundreds but was still much higher than what I paid at the box store for something comparable, I do not know if the doctor is a different organization than the eye glass sales in the same office.

Dr. Schneid is one of the warmest and most attentive doctors I’ve ever met. He didn’t rush me for a second—he listened carefully, explained things clearly, and gave me the kind of thorough eye care I’d been looking for. You can tell he truly cares about his patients. If you want a doctor who makes you feel comfortable, valued, and well taken care of, I couldn’t recommend him more.
