Great doctor but choices for frames aren’t as many.

While the doctor was wonderful, I felt quite mislead and uncomfortable with how the payment for the appointment was handled. I came in specifically for an annual check-up and verified at the front desk that I wouldn't get charged for anything else. When it came to paying for the appointment, the woman in the front desk typed some numbers, took my card from the table, and directly inserted it to pay WITHOUT telling me the details of how much she was charging me or what I was being charged for. When I intervened, she explained some additional costs that were NOT communicated to me whatsoever. Partially on me to question every little thing they do to ensure its within network -- but never in my life have I had my card literally taken and inserted to pay for an unknown amount. Extremely rude. When I gave my feedback, the woman did not apologize. You can have a better experience elsewhere, and save yourself some time and money.
