Terrible experience with them today. They were rude from the get-go and ANY question I had visibly…read moreannoyed them. They told me I was required to sign their "Permission to Treat a Minor Child Without A Parent Present" form. This made no sense to me as I am the mother, and I was present. When I asked for a regular "Permission to Treat" form, the office manager not only told me "no," she asked, "Would you like to cancel?" in a very "I'm done with you" tone." She said she was tired of "arguing with me" about having to sign the "treat without a parent present form." Really? Why are you arguing in the first place? Just produce the correct form! I'm just a mom seeking care for my child; I don't want or need a stressful encounter with a manager with a chip on their shoulder. They actually managed to engage in other discourteous and unpleasant behavior, but you get the idea. This is hands down the rudest, most uncaring, and most problematic experience I've ever had at a doctor's office! If you don't mind being treated poorly and being required to sign non-sensical forms, I guess you'll do ok here, but it's not for me. I will never, ever set foot in here again!

Special thanks to Teresa and Rene for, once again, helping me find glasses that are perfect for me and make me feel confident wearing them.

Here is what happened to me today, 28 February, 2023L When I made an appointment by phone for an eye exam two weeks ago, I specifically asked how much it would cost. I was told by the very friendly voice of "Wally" that it would be $189.00 He then asked me if I had Medicare and supplemental insurance. I said yes, and then asked how much of that Medicare would pay. He said 80% if I had met my deductible. I went ahead and made an appointment. I called back a second time and asked Wally to confirm that it would be $189. He confirmed. When I showed up today for the appointment I asked Wally again how much it will be. For a third time he said $189, and I gave him my Medicare and insurance cards. After doing this and before going in for the exam I thought I had better confirm the price one more time because I didn't want to get stuck with a surprise bill. This time he said that it will be $189 "If you pay in cash today" and $249. "if you use Medicare," and you have to pay today $79.00 for "non-payment service." I protested, saying that he didn't tell me all this the two times I talked with him on the phone or when I asked him the first time when I came today for the appointment. He denied everything. This is the typical "Bait and Switch" tactic. I asked to see Dr. Crowder because I wanted to register my complaint with her. She came out and sat down with me, but explained that it was $189. "if I paid cash," but $249. "if I used Medicare." I said I was not told that until just now. It didn't make any difference. I said I would post a review. She asked me if I would report it to Medicare. I said I would. As a taxpayer, I do not believe it is fair to charge one amount for a cash price and a higher price to Medicare. BEWARE! Paul M.

First, much of the appointment was completed by the medical assistant, which was fine with me. It doesn't take a doctorate to have me cover my left eye and see which line I can read. =) After going through that process and figuring out why my new prescription was, my eyes were dilated and I was moved to the waiting room for it to take effect. After a few minutes I was taken to another examination room and saw Dr. Seefried. He checked my eyes and talked with me about any questions/concerns that I had. Lastly, I visited the contact lens expert (I don't know what they call that position) to get new lenses to try out. Everyone, from the front office staff, to the medical assistants, to the doctor, to the contact lens expert were friendly and professional. I was treated respectfully by all employees that I encountered and am so happy that I switched to this practice!
