    In February, I called to schedule an appointment for March 31, 2025 at 3pm with Dr. Eric…read moreKuykendall. The woman on the phone confirmed that that day and time was available and that I was now scheduled for it. I put the date and time in my phone so that I wouldn't forget. Fast forward to March 24, I scheduled 2 hours off at the end of my work day so that I can attend my eye appointment scheduled for March 31 @ 3pm. Then today, March 31, I arrive at the office @ 2:55pm and give the receptionist my name and information. She then proceeds to tell me that I wasn't scheduled for today, that I was scheduled for May 11, 2025. I told her that that was impossible as I had double checked with the woman on the phone, put the appointment information in my phone in the calendar app, and even took time off to make the appointment on time. I also told her that I chose this day and time due to needing prescription safety glasses because I work in the aviation industry in a safety sensitive position. I asked if someone had rescheduled my appointment and failed to call or message me, to which she replied no. I don't care what she said or what is on their computer scheduling system, I know what the woman told me back in February. I don't like to be lied to. I will not return to Eyecare of Claremore.

    I have been here on 3 occasions and everyone always has a cavalier attitude and comes across like…read morethey really don't care if I give them my business or not. The optometrist I saw also seemed very unprofessional and laidback. Several other office staff came across as mildly condescending. I finally gave up and went to another Optometrist's office in the area and was treated with total respect, which is exactly what I'm accustom to. They also have this carefree attitude that, if your issues aren't resolved this visit, you can just stop by later. Never mind the fact that they're not open on weekends so you have to take time off work to come in. But that doesn't matter right? As long as the customer is the one being inconvenienced? My point is they don't empathize with you, or show any concern for your problems and simply have a self absorbed happy go lucky attitude when this is a "service oriented profession".

    For those of you who have "difficult" eyes, who need more than to be handed off to a surgeon (or…read morejust need to find the right one), need a local doctor to help you through pre and post op, I highly recommend this office. I am 62, have had severe myopia (all of my life), and like a lot of people with this condition I dread visits to eye doctors. I have been warned that when and if I had cataract and lens implant surgery, my options would be very limited (warned repeatedly my eyes would require a very, very skilled surgeon, just the right lens implants.....). Dreaded the visit that said.... well, you need surgery. Tried going directly to surgical centers, but honestly did not understand most of their options (new technology, some doctors say they do lots of the surgery you need, only to find out, not so much). Last year I had rapid onset of cataracts, vision in my left eye started to go very fast, right eye vision was all I had left, and I needed someone to help me figure out what to do next. Two of my neighbors recommended Dr Claflin, so went in, dreading again the "your eyes are going to be tough, you need to visit a specialist or surgeon," talk. This office was just what I needed; wonderful equipment, very well trained techs, and a lot of experience working with the major surgical centers in Colorado. My eyes were digitally mapped, followed by a very well thought out briefing on my eyes, exactly what caused my myopia; the shape and thickness of my retina, risk factors for any surgery and a comprehensive review of the technologies for solving my problem(s). What impressed me the most was Dr Claflin did not recommend a technical solution, he went through the list of surgeons he knew who handled eyes as myopic as mine, and made a recommendation, set up all the pre and post surgical visits, coordinated with the surgeon, and answered all of my questions about surgical options (twice after hours). Basically made a decision I have been dreading all my life seem obvious, with no drama and just fabulous post operative care. The beauty of this office (for me) was after surgery, my eyes were mapped again, I could actually see how well the surgery went, and how it affected my retina (not at all) by comparing pre and post operative imagining. This team spent a lot more time with me on what to do next than I expected, and Dr Claflin even opened his office on a day off when I exhibited a post surgical symptom that could have been the start of a retinal problem (was not). Saved me lots of travel and concern. Could not have made a better choice. Love this office.

    My husband and I came for eye exams and glasses. The staff, over the phone and in person, were very…read morefriendly and made us feel comfortable through the entire experience. The office was very nice as well. They had used technology that I hadn't yet seen in other eye clinics, and it made the process much easier.
