Initially, I was quite satisfied with their professionalism and knowledge. However, over time I have experienced a lot of issues with a pair of Coach readers that were custom-made for me. I have asked them to replace a screw that continues to fall out, so they replaced the pair of glasses. This issue continues to happen even with the new pair. I am not satisfied at all. I should probably write this even lower than I did, however, my very first initial visit with them was superior. I truly hope that they get this issue rectified, or I will never return to them again. It has been the utmost waste of time. read more

Elisabeth S Swan, OD - Coach reading glasses - Optometrists Near Me - Fair Oaks, California

See all

I miss when this was actually Ms. Swans office. I had an appt today at 9a and got called 30 minutes before to cancel even though I had took the day off for appts and it's hard for me to take days off work. Very very unprofessional. read more

I have been a Dr. Swan patient for many years and have always have an annual checkup in December. I called about my appointment in October and was told I would not be seen until February. When I explained I have to go somewhere else - I was basically told "oh well". The office experience has been great; however, the lack of caring by the staff is disappointing. Sorry - this is poor customer service. It looks like we will need to take the steps to find a new Optometrist. read more

I am posting this review solely on the fact of being a new patient trying to schedule a first time appt. I called to make an appointment and the lady I spoke with was not very friendly at almost like I was a bother. I had some basic questions and a specific time of the week that I would only be able to come in. She practically gave me an appt a month away, only after bothering her some more did she offer to put me on the cancellation list. When she was getting my information she was very cold and did not make me feel comfortable as a new patient at all. I am sure that Dr. Swan is a great doctor and all but maybe she should have someone shop her office staff..... Unfortunately the woman I spoke with was my first impression of this office, and I will be canceling my appointment. I found another 5 star yelped office that was able to answer my questions and make me feel welcome vs a bother. read more

I have been wearing glasses and getting eye exams for close to a half of a century. This was by far the best! Simple, easy, professional, quick and no hard sell. Excellent. My very favorite? The camera to compare which glasses look the best. Plus the cost did not break my bam\nk. read more

This review is not about Dr Swan, but instead about her office staff. Their policy of not allowing you to use your VSP insurance between different visits is not VSP policy (for my insurance). When I called back to get it fixed, they were cold and basically acted like I was a bother. They didn't once apologize for being wrong. I have been coming to this office for a few years now because I really did like Dr. Swan, but because of this incident and the way that it was handled, I will not be returning. Update: I received a call from Dr.Swan's office and they ordered me a 90 pack instead of a 30 pack free of charge for my inconvenience. I do appreciate that they tried to make it better, but I still will be finding another optometrist. I hope they learned from my situation and they will credit all VSP insurance users their full insurance allowance in the future. read more

I came in to look at frames and order glasses. I didnt see Dr. Swan but im sure shes nice. There was a little bit of a mix up with my insurance so I was told I would be called when everything was worked out. Went in on a Saturday and its now a week later and haven't heard from them. The part that I am most disappointed in is that I called several times to check in and no one seemed to know what was going on... I say come to this place as a very last option... read more

Hey 4 pair of new glasses later I love Dr Swanns optometrist. Customer service is top notch and all four pair are flawless. I just recently received a pair of John Varvatos titanium lightweight they are like not wearing glasses at all they are so light. Also have a pair of safety glasses used for work and shooting. A pair of Oakley Double Tap, and a pair of Dragons. I couldn't be happier. read more

Scheduled an appointment and didn't have to wait more than 5 minutes to see the doctor. The exam was through and I felt she did not rush and really cared about getting to know me as her patient. They have a good range of glasses and sunglasses to purchase. read more

After our optometrist retired we had to find anew one, we are sure glad we found dr Swan. She and her staff make you feel right at home. The office is very clean immaculate and very spacious with a lot of selection They are all very knowledgable and have very state of the art equipment. Going to the optometrist was actually a pleasant experience this time Thank You read more

Dr. Swan has been our eye care professional for many, many years. She and her staff are wonderful, friendly, helpful, personal, and extremely professional. Love them. There is a fabulous selection of eye wear and the newest technology in eye care. We are always greeted by name and big smiles. You won't be disappointed with their service or selection of eye wear. read more

Contrary to one poster, I had an easy time setting an appointment. No problem there. Staff, including Dr. Swan, were all friendly and warm. Efficient and thorough eye exam and excellent assistance in picking out frames I found to be aesthetically pleasing on myself, working within the insurance options I had with VSP. A+. read more

Dr. Swan is by far the best eye doctor around. Have been working with her for years and never had a single issue. We've travelled around the country and never found anyone that even compared to her. Currently we drive up to Sac from the Bay Area to see her. She's simply the best! read more

Dr. Swan saved my life. I had come down with some kind of conjunctivitis that wasn't improving with antibiotics. I was in immense pain and couldn't see. She was gracious enough to see us at 5pm on a Friday, diagnosed my condition as viral and gave me the appropriate prescription. It hasn't even been 24 hours and I feel 100% better. She was gentle, caring, very professional and well-informed. Her staff are very gracious and helpful and the office is clean and welcoming. I can't recommend her enough. Thank you Dr. Swan!! read more

I didn't realize how great Dr Swan is until I tried out an eye doc much closer to my home, I was underwhelmed and am back with The Swan Family even though it is a much further drive and requires traversing the dreaded Sunrise Blvd. At least there is Fabian's next door to have a cocktail to calm the driving nerves. read more

I LOVE Dr. Swan and her staff and have been coming here for years. The office is gorgeous, the staff is so friendly and helpful and the doctors are thorough and a joy to be around. They help with recommendations of eyewear and the best bag for your buck and always make me feel taken care of. If you're looking for an eye doctor, look no further. Plus - how fun is it to tell your friends your doctor's name is Elizabeth Swan? Every time I go in I still hope to catch a glimpse of Captain Jack Sparrow read more

There are no words to describe what an amazing optometrist Dr Swan is! She goes above and beyond the call of duty in terms of her practice. She is professional, personable, and a lovely person in general. Her office is extremely clean, modern and professional, and she has great staff! I could not imagine ever seeing another optometrist because I wouldn't imagine there could be a better one! read more

Can't seem to get this office to keep to THEIR scheduled appointments. Trying to get my daughter a new pair of glasses. They have just rescheduled her appointment for the 3rd time. They keep scheduling & then calling to reschedule due to them changing THEIR schedule, AGAIN! Latest reason is after my apointment being reschedule (due to THEIR changing apointments schedule) they now are going to be having a staff meeting!!! I would hope at some point they realize by seeing patients this office is able to pay their 'staff'. Not holding out much hope read more

The doctor was very easy to talk to. The staff was terrific and the office is very high tech and stylish! I received excellent service shopping for glasses and even left with two name brands for less then $200.00!! I will recommend to everyone. read more

After several years going to Ophthalmologists to have my eyes examined, I was reluctant to go to a Optometrist. My insurance only covered Optometrists so I used Yelp and found Elizabeth Swan had favorable reviews. I have to admit that the examination was better and more complete then previous experiences. Her equipment is state-of-the-art and she explained the results of her findings and cautioned me on the fact I had early indications of Macular Degeneration. She gave me samples of a Bausch and Lomb product to hopefully slow down its progression. I was a little disturbed when I got my glasses that they were heavier then my old glasses. This may have been partly my fault because I ordered full width (executive) bifocals. That necessitated heavier lenses. When Dr. Swan found out I was unhappy she agreed to reorder thinner lenses with larger then standard bifocal. I agreed and just got my new glasses today. They fit perfectly and the bifocal works great. read more

Stopped by the office today to pay a bill. While I was there I asked to get my glasses adjusted. Now they fit perfectly and they even replaced my nose pads. Awesome customer service. read more

This office is great!!! We have insurance but does not cover glasses, but they bend over backwards to work with out budget for glasses. Also my daughter has broken and lost her glasses and they were very accommodating in helping us get new ones for her. We have been going here for over 8 years and have not had any problems with service or otherwise. read more

The front office staff sets the feeling for the rest of a practice. This office makes you feel welcomed and taken care of. Dr Kim saw our son and was very thorough with the exam. She too is pleasant and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this office! read more

Always happy with my care at Swan's. The girls are great, Dr. Swan is great. The choices are great. The environment is clean and relaxing... very happy I chose to leave my last optometrist, who I sincerely liked, to find another so good and closer to home. read more

I actually look forward to my annual exam. Everything about Dr. Swan's practice is the very best, from her expertise and friendliness to her entire staff and the comfort of the office. I heartily recommend Dr. Swan to all my friends, family and acquaintances! read more

This place is amazing. My husband and I have been to Kaiser optometry, Stanton and other local places and never had someone take as much care of us as Dr Swans office did. They really care about you and your needs. They explain everything to you in detail and open late on some days to make it convenient for us that work 8 to 5. Glasses came pretty quickly and no problems. Dr swan had found something on my husbands eye and she sent it out to a specialist to have then research more and then called us as soon as she knew what was going on. This will now be our primary optometrist read more

Dr. Swan might be OK if you have regular insurance or are paying out of pocket but we took my daughter there while she was under the Healthy Families plan and we were treated like 3rd class trash. We had to wait every time someone walked in the door, everyone who come in after us got taken care of before we did, and no one that they stopped helping us for had an appointment. We ended up being there for over an hour but only got about 10 minutes with the doctor. Now that we have insurance again for the entire family we will be looking for another eye doctor. No way will they get a dime of our money, or insurance, after treating us that way. read more

Swan Optometry is first class. This was the first time I had been and I was greeted as soon as I walked in. They explained everything and gave me options. All the ladies were really helpful. I will keep them as my optometrist. read more

I have lucked out, just moving to the area I went on the VSP website to find a Optometrists near my home. Coming from the bay I had my doctor but was not making the drive. Found Dr. Swan and was impressed when I received a text and an e-mail confirming my appointment. I went a little early figuring there would be paper work. There was and got to fill them out right away. ALL the girls that work there were very friendly and professional. They knew people's name and style of glasses, which I am impressed, they really take the time to get to know someone. Dr. Swan was awesome too very professional and friendly. Told me things about my eyes that my other doctor hadn't before. Took time to explain what was going on. I know my eyes are terrible but never felt like there was something wrong with me for having poor eye sight. (unfortunately my mom has poor eye sight too). Got fitted for glasses and contact. Made another appointment to have my eyes dilated. I am so relieved that I found Dr. Swan and feel so comfortable with her and her staff, makes moving to this area that much easier. read more

i would suggest this office to anyone. their staff is very friendly and helpful. i had my first exam & glasses picked out within an hour, and dr. swan was awesome! read more

Have been seeing Dr. Swan for many years now. She is very knowledgeable and has a warm and caring manner. Staff is also very friendly and helpful. State of the art equipment used to examine your eyes and the office setting is very clean & comfortable. read more

Dr. Swan and her staff are a delight! They are all very friendly and helpful. There is a great selection of frames, and if they do not have what you will want, they are happy to order it in! Thank you for being awesome! read more

I picked Dr. Swan's office and was very happy with my choice! When I arrived for my appointment I was immediately greeted by 4 different employees, all of whom welcomed me to the office and helped me get checked in. The staff is very friendly and nice and the office is professional and clean. They even have the latest equipment there for checking the health of your eyes. Dr. Swan was also very professional and nice. She was clear in explaining instructions for the eye exam and was very thorough in going over the results. One of my main problems is getting headaches with the computer screen at work and I had measured how far away I am from my monitor. Dr. Swan simulated that in her office by sitting me in front of a computer and measuring out the distance so it would be the same as my office. Then she had me try on what would be my prescription so that I could see the difference. It was a great experience all around and I would highly recommend her. read more
