Time for the annual eye exam and my wife picked this spot since it's nearby our house, and the doctor is Asian. Thought it was easy to make the appointment, but as it turns out, we had to wait a few weeks before the first available spit. It's either they are doing pretty good business, or weekend spots are hard to get. However, we find it very easy to check in when we arrived. The staff was pretty friendly and checked us in pretty quick without any delays. Maybe it has something to do with our appointment being at 10am. Nevertheless, the staff did their job. Surprisingly, the doctor was able to see us at about 10:05am, which is remarkable! She was pretty friendly and helpful, answered all the questions my wife and I had. And really took her time to examine us. I was afraid my vision is going out of whack as I get older. Luckily it hasn't gone worse since my last eye exam so I don't require new prescription glasses at this time. My wife's vision is still pretty good, but she got a new pair of reading glasses to help her with reading magazines and newspapers. And they are easy to deal with on insurance too. The staff explained to us about our co-pays and helped my wife with a pair of reading glasses that fits her perfectly. We only paid $15.00 out of pocket for them which is cool. I'd definitely recommend anyone looking for an eye doctor to see Dr. Chen. read more

dr chen is very rude she doesn't know how to talk to people will not be taking my son back to her be careful becayse she has a mouth that will make you come out of character, however, never had a problem with Vincent. He's good at his job. read more

A bit pricey and also they won't give you your prescription. I understand if they give you a prescription you can go somewhere else, but everyone else does it. read more

This receptionist that works at this location has to be the most rudest, absurd employee that I've ever spoke to. She kept over talking me when I'm trying to explain that she does take my insurance. She refused to speak to my insurance company when they called her. And then on the second call that my insurance company and my myself were on she abruptly hung up on both of us. If this is the start of an experience of going to this optometrist, I can only imagine what the visit would be Take your business elsewhere. If i was able to score 0 i would have READ THE OTHER REVIEWS. THAT WILL CONFIRM HOW RUDE THIS OFFICE IS read more

Dr. Chen is a true professional willing to spend as much time as necessary to explain your eye care. Although Dr. Chen was not treating my stye, she took the time to explain why we get styes and how to avoid them. Dr. Chen has always given me the correct prescription. I have never had a problem. It is a delight to deal with this practice. Vincent. the Optician in that office, goes the extra mile fitting me with glasses that are good for my skin color and head shape. He even fixes my non-prescription sunglasses when they become loose. I highly recommend Dr. Chen. Maureen B. read more

Justine Chen is a terrible optometrist! She is completely unfit to help any patient. Her rude demeanor is very unprofessional. My experience with her office was very poor. The receptionist was rude and condescending. I would never recommend anyone be treated by her. It was a waste of my money and time. read more

It's not even worth a star. My first time. I came in with my two kids one of them is 18 months. My toddler was trying to play when the stuff told rudely that he can't play he should sit down on a chair and play,A 18 month old toddler??? Ppl who have kids will understand that a 18 month old will never sit quietly and play. Plus that man in the front desk just kept on telling how I should not bring a toddler with me. Everything was just shocking to me the way he treated me the way he spoke to me. I left that place right away will not recommend it to anyone. I was ignoring the reviews but I witnessed it myself. Lesson learned. read more

Nasty they have always been but this time I asked for my eye glasses to be made that mine had broke first the dr said no she wants to do the eye exam because of liability then she said she was not doing it for free in other words she wants to make money on the eye exam in order for me to get glasses she said Justin will call me He said you can do it but April 30 because of the pandemic only 4 people were working on the lab he said it very rude and it was a lie I called my insurance preferred care partners and eye care ask was the lab working they said yes and I can order glasses no problem they gave Me another eye dr in north Miami he was super nice said come in give them the prescription and they will oder read more

I recently went to see Dr. Chen for the first time & she was very professional, nice & kind. She took her time with the eye exam & answered all of my questions. The office staff is awesome & very friendly. I was very pleased with the service I received & highly recommend Dr. Chen. read more

My husband and I have been going to Dr Chen for years. She has always been excellent. I've been wearing glasses most of my life. We go out of our way to go to her because we've consistently had great results. Vincent is above and beyond excellent with his knowledge and expertise in picking and ordering glasses. Over a lifetime of wearing glasses I've experienced glasses coming back from the lab with wrong prescriptions, lens cracking, glasses malfunctioning, and more. If there's ever had a question or issue with a pair of glasses from Dr Chen's office it's been handled quickly and professionally. If I could rate more than five stars I would. read more

I truly wished I had checked the yelp and seen all the horrible reviews before I went. And if I could give NO stars, I would. This office and its staff are horrific. The details of my many dealings with them are too many and to long to type here. The final phone call was the last straw as when I tried to explain to the Doctor the many issues I was having she cut me off, would NOT let me explain and then asked me to pick up the glasses and not return, as if this comedy of errors was MY fault, absolutely incredible. In 50 years of dealing with Doctors office's or business this is by far the worst experience I have encountered. Please stay far away from this establishment!!!!!!! read more

Great service, very professional and extremely thorough. I've been having to go back every quarter for a follow up as I am being monitored for a family gene. Love the care she gives. I highly recommend Dr. Chen. read more

I've been going to Dr. Chen for years, and I've never had any issues with her. She is professional and courteous. She does the job thoroughly and always takes time to answer my questions or listen to me even though the office is usually busy. read more

Extremely rude staff my mother an elder ask for frame prices the female receptionist said to check herself that each Frame has the price !!! I asked the male morning attendant to checked for my benefits I asked for a copy said he couldn't give it to me is for in-house use I said I have been in the past to other locations and his responses was ""he doesn't care what others do !!!i addressed the situation and advised him that is not the way to treat new customer he responded "" I treat people whichever way he wanted .. Dr Chen witness the behavior was passing by at the moment ...very disappointed experience to be the first time ...Dr Chen explained my mother her diagnosis my mother requested the Dr to talk to me for better understanding she never turned to me she said ""yeah she can explain everything to you ... Very sad that in this stage where there is so much competition and how employees feel entitled for the owners to treat people in whichever way read more

I have never been treated so rudely in my life! My father went into have a plastic piece fixed on his glasses. He was talking with a young lady, when a rude arrogant person at the desk yelled it will be 3 to 5 business days. My father did not realize this person was talking to him. The rude arrogant person yelled at my father again " it's going to be 3 to 5 business days do you want to leave them or what? My father I'm sure stood up for himself as best as possible and ended up leaving. He was also told to never come back! If something would of happened to my 75 year old father on his way home I would be beyond writing a bad review on Google. I decided to try and contact the place of business and this arrogant person was incredibly disrespectful to me on the phone and hung up on me. I called back and requested to speak with the Doctor herself and was hung up on again. I will be speaking with my insurance provider and continue to write negative reviews. There is no reason to ever treat anyone the way we have been treated. I definitely have some tact so I will not go into calling that person any other derogatory names. I hope Dr. Chen decides to contact me herself. I would appreciate and I'm looking forward to that conversation. You just don't treat people like there animals. I know my father and he might be a know it all but he definitely did not treat them the same way. read more

I'm never coming back here again, dr. Chen was rude and not treated well for my daughter and grabbing my daughter head hard so she could see her eye vision, dr. Chen talk back in a rude way, don't have a welcoming love relationship for patients. The front desk is horrible and takes forever to get the glasses prescription. The worst experience read more

Awesome customer service & accommodating! Vincent is perfect with his reasoning for style!

This is my second appointment. The first one the doc was not in and after an hour waiting it was rescheduled for this week. It is 38 minutes since I arrived and still waiting. read more

Dr Chen is a fantastic eye doctor, gives a quality eye exam and communicates well!! Love this office, it is comfortable and welcoming! Vincent is the best when it comes to picking out frames, he is very honest and takes the time to make sure they are the right frames for your face and comfortable to wear!! read more

Horrible experience. I'm still in a state of shock. They took my money, $99.00 cash but didn't provide me with eyeglasses I can use. I'm struggling for 2 months to get my money back but they refuse. I feel robbed.Incompetent people . Extremely rude facility read more

I've been a patient of Dr. Chen for at least 12 years and I can actually say she is courteous and very professional, and her office staff is more than accommodating when it comes to appointments and any other matter! It's unfortunate that some individuals have given this office and Dr. Chen horrible reviews when in fact this office and Dr. Chen are very good at their jobs! I personally have witnessed an incident where some of these individuals have demonstrated bad behavior and used inappropriate language towards some of the office staff, and I've always said nobody should have to put up with bad behavior and inappropriate language coming from ANYBODY! Please keep in mind in today's society we have a large percentage of people that think that the world revolves around them, I call it the ME and ME society (It's all about them)! So, don't always believe what you read are the true facts when it comes to some of the negative reviews! read more

My daughter has been going to Dr. Chen since 2005 wouldn't trust her precious eyes to NO ONE ELSE! Dr. Chen is awesome and the staff is great. I have called them in the last minute numerous times thur the yrs for contact for my child (sounding like a crazy woman I'm sure)and they come to the rescue every time. read more

THE ABSOLUTE WORST! I made an appointment with this office as they are in network. I arrived for my appointment (on time) ... 1/2 hour later I was called in by a doc whom I assume was Dr. Chen (she didn't bother to introduce herself)... we raced through the vision exam, did not allow me to explain my concerns and special considerations. Any time I tried to discuss anything she would cut me off. Then suddenly, "this is your prescription"... I asked her "for what?" as we hadn't discussed any of my special concerns which would certainly affect the type of glasses I need. She still would not adequately explain what this was for, but said only "for your glasses, discuss it with the optician". Optician? Huh??? Then when I tried again , she rudely accused me of interrupting and not letting her explain. This woman is curt, rude, abrupt, and non communicative. I lost it, stormed out, announcing to the waiting room that this was 'the worst doctor I'd ever been to.' I have been seeing an ophthalmologist for 20 years with whom I have a great rapport... he talks, explains, shares... I want THAT from a doc, and will not accept less. read more

Terrible office staff. The person on the phone is rude and lacks basic communications and customer service skills. The person who does the glasses is trying to sneak his own business interests between office and insurance. I've been with them for three years and I am switching providets because of him. Too bad for Dr. Chen who is a wonderful professional. When you go to a doctor you want to feel better, and her staff makes you feel worst. Not worth the headaches! read more

Dr Chen was arrogant and impatient. I was not impressed with her on my first visit a year and a half ago but the gentleman who runs the office and fits you for the glasses is exceptional so I did return for my eye exam this year. Big mistake!! I should have listened to my initial feeling. I will pay for another eye exam this year, as I am not confident that I got a good exam from Dr Chen. I will get a 2nd eye exam and purchase my glasses elsewhere. read more

Over the years I've gotten several pairs of glasses from Dr. Chen and they were pretty good. But this last pair was poor. I went back several times for adjustments and a re-examination but they said the the prescription was OK and just live with them. But it wasn't. Finally I gave up and had another pair of glasses made at another place. These were fine. read more

though I was pleased with the examination by dr chen when I went back a few months later requesting a minor repair on the frames I purchased there the man at the desk was incredibly rude and nasty...wanted to charge for repair. went down the street to another eyeglass place they happily did the repair and did not charge me read more

My wife and I have been going yearly to Dr Chen for at least 3 years now and we could not be happier. Dr. Chen always takes her time with us and answers any concerns we may have. Its very easy to make an appointment and wait time averages 15 to 20 minutes. I actually look forward to my yearly eye exams (for some reason or another I enjoy getting my eyes dialated). A+++ read more
