I recommend you find another eye care place. Alpine eye was not good. They were rude and when I…read moretried to say my eye was not healed and I didn't think another surgery was a good idea (2 weeks apart) they ridiculed me and charged me $100 dollars because I canceled. Not good at all.

I had my first eye exam at Meijer a little over a year ago…read more I was hoping to be able to read without reading glasses. The first trial contacts were good. I could read, but, not see well at night. Well, I shouldn't have said anything, cuz, he ordered another trial pair, but I couldn't read! When I told him to go back to the 1st trial pair, he sat in the chair, flipping my card over and back. Over and back. He couldn't find the 1st prescription! He ordered another pair that were not right! When I went back, I was told he retired! I told the clerk to just order me the 1st trial contacts. She couldn't find it! I said to just call the company that they were ordered from. I was told that they would know! Or even have the prescription! So, a new eye doctor, at the same Meijer in Three Rivers, says; I am going to go a different way. I CAN NOT READ WITH THEM. So, I spent my money on an exam for nothing!!

If you're already headed west out of Gaylord anyway, this Meijer is very conveniently located…read more This relatively new store has spacious aisles, and the low Meijer prices we've come to love. The produce section and the dairy section are miles apart, which encourages one to walk through the entire store for "just the basics," but then, you often see something else that was on your mental shopping list, or find something that you didn't realize you needed until you saw it. There is a Subway at the front of the store, near the produce section. Just don't let your glove box catch fire in their parking lot! Their employees will get in trouble if they don't follow company policy to help you out.

The staff here is friendly, they have a nice selection of frames. The frames can get quite pricey,…read morebut that's to be expected. They took my insurance and did my exam, the eye doctor was very nice and professional. They allowed me to place a deposit (half) on the frames/lens build we made, and I paid the rest when they came in. I was told it could take up to a week for the new glasses to arrive, but they were in within only three days! The staff was wonderful as they fitted the glasses for me and gave me a care kit with wipes and info about the lens coatings. The ONLY thing keeping this from being a five star review is that it's a difficult location to get in and out of, it's on a busy corner with lots of traffic and multiple lights.

The staff and doctor have communication issues. I asked for transition glasses for reading and…read morecomputer work. They did not dilate my eyes and there were no eye tests. The doctor always looks away when talking to you. When I received my glasses it included distance, and the vision area was as thin as a pencil, I would have to turn my head to look slightly to the left or right. I took them back, revisited the doctor, they expanded my vision area, but still could not get them right. I even gave them my current glasses as an example both times. After the 4th one hour round trip to their office, I returned the glasses for a refund. I would not recommend this office for your vision care. Were also about $100 more than any previous offices I have used in the past 20 yrs

Dr. Christopher Gilmartin is a superb optometrist. He has a sterling education and decades of…read morepractical experience. He's thorough, methodical, professional. But what I find most valuable is his practical advice to help patients preserve their eyesight. He takes the time during an examination to explain to a patient what they're doing right, where they're running risks, and what they can do going forward to safeguard their vision. That's invaluable information, particularly for someone my age (67), who wants to keep their eyes working properly, and avoid painful and costly repairs.
