    I was here two years ago and it was OK. I came back for an appointment and I just could not get…read morepast the dirty walls, the unbelievable smell of body odor all through the waiting room and the dirtiness of the carpet. Never mind the guy snoring loudly in the waiting room that no one seemed to want to address. I would stay away from this place at all cost. I've gone to low budget places, but this is lower than low.

    I went for an eye exam, I was there 13 years ago, they kept sending cards in the mail on how my eye…read morehealth was important to them, those glasses I could see everything clear and that was a long time ago. I had the exam, then after they asked if I wanted computer glasses, but never explained I could only use them on a computer, as I left she even said not to wear them driving. I can't even see my wall mounted TV 3 feet away, so all I can use them with is close 2 feet max clear vision. But they bill insurance over 500 dollars for glasses you cant see out of clearly unless it is 2 feet away, well how is that a full optimal pair of glasses? They probably costed 25 dollars to make. I will be writing the insurance company. I am 55 you cant tell me you cant make a pair of glasses where I can see everything clearly all the time. These are merely just reading glasses and I was never given any printout of my vision results, no report at all, very poor customer service! They should be ashamed.

    Herbal IQ was the first dispensary I ever went to and although I have visited a couple of others I…read morealways come back here! This 4/20 weekend they have 50% off of the entire store which is an amazing deal and great time to stock up! My favorite brand is Ayrloom and their Pillow Talk gummies put me to sleep, while their Rest vape will allow me a short window to shut my mind off so I can focus on watching a tv show or movie for a short while before it also puts me to sleep. I use the products to unwind at night and go to bed occasionally and they are beyond anything a doctor has ever prescribed. Ayrloom is at the party with giveaways, including uninfused drinks so that you can pick a flavor profile you like before purchasing the infused version. I grabbed the honey crisp which is nice and sweet like a yummy apple juice. I also got a cool trucker hat! Rove is also at the party ... they've been in business for 10 years out of California and working on getting their name expanded out here. Their product is very very very potent so it's great for those who partake a lot and have a higher tolerance (unlike me lol). Also at the party they had many other vendors with THC products and accessories but also artists with other nice products. Aside from the party, Herbal IQ staff is always friendly and eager to help. They also have online ordering for pick up or delivery. The store is nice and clean and a place I can trust.

    I ordered delivery for a specific time frame and it never came. no call or text message, either. I…read moregot a confirmation email as well so I'm not sure what happened. but only be ordering again. I heard people suggest Canterra.

    The first thing I noticed was that the store has a bit of a mold problem - there was a musty smell,…read moreand you could see visible water damage on the ceiling - definitely looked like mold. Something to keep in mind if you have respiratory issues. Still, I found the staff to be very competent and efficient. The optometrist was super friendly and got me in and out in record time. I was in for contact lenses. It had been about five years since I last wore them, and compared to the last time I went in for contacts, I was really pleased. They had me in a trial pair of lenses that day, as opposed to making me wait a couple weeks. I wasn't expecting to walk out with contacts, and it was a really pleasant surprise to do so. The guy who fitted me for lenses was thorough, and checked how they settled on my eyes three times. He also had me read an eye chart to make sure everything was kosher. He decided I needed stronger lenses, and promised to order a new trial pair (while letting me keep the first pair, which I guess he had to do, since my eyeball juice was all over them...). :) When you have astigmatism like I do, it's hard to nail down the exact prescription fix. In fact, sometimes you just have to aim for close. So at least he checked. He took his time making sure I knew how to wash, rinse and disinfect my lenses (I already knew, but he really wanted to make sure I had it down). He gave me an information sheet, and made sure to go down the list, making sure I knew what to expect in the first week with new lenses, and what to do if I fell asleep with them in or if things seemed off. He seemed to read my mind about trying to find ways to extend the life of my monthlies, and cautioned me against it. Lastly, he let me know that Turtle has a program that can ship me my lenses, which is cool. All in all, the whole experience was painless. A little smelly, but painless. Tip: If you have Independent Health, Thomas Turtle takes their Eye/Med insurance. This way your visit fee is reduced to ten bucks. If you go in for contacts, expect to be charged a one time forty dollar fitting fee, but it's waived for any future visits. For my visit, I paid a total of fifty bucks.
