However, there is a jewel in the crown and that is at 2601 S. tamiami Trail. Her name Jean Austin and she helped me with getting a new pair of glasses. It took awhile to find the right pair but her patience was unending. I found out that all the Center for Sight's have different eyeglass frame. This location definitely has the best choice and superb service.

From my very first appointment at Center for Sight over a decade ago through surgery and…read morepost-operative visits, I have been extremely impressed with this practice. The physicians are knowledgeable, skilled, and genuinely caring. They take the time to answer questions and explain treatment options to ensure each patient has the best vision possible. The medical care has been outstanding. I recently needed surgery and it was performed with exceptional professionalism, and everything went smoothly. The post-surgical follow-up has been just as impressive, with careful monitoring, thorough examinations, and a staff that is always available to answer questions. Everyone in the practice--from the physicians to the technicians and office staff--is friendly, courteous, and efficient. It is clear that patient care is their highest priority. I highly recommend this practice to anyone seeking outstanding ophthalmologic care. Center for Sight's expertise, compassion, and commitment to excellent outcomes make them truly exceptional.

I made an appointment for the Bradenton office 3 months ago on my way out of an appointment at the…read moreSarasota office, to be seen by Dr. Abrams. I asked twice about making sure it was for the Bradenton office which is closer to my house. The receptionist assured me it was on the books. However, when the day was approaching, last Thursday June 4, I had not received any notification to confirm this appointment. When i phoned the office they did not have any appointment scheduled for me at either office. However, this receptionist did seem concerned that it had not been scheduled as I see the Doc every 3 months. She worked her magic for me to be seen Monday June 8th, thank goodness. I think there is a disconnect with staff and scheduling in either office. I see other reviews that complain about staff. I could voice my opinion about the receptionist who did not make my appointment but I'd rather compliment the staff member who worked me in. I hope this does not happen again.

Dr. David Shoemaker owns Center for Sight which has an office in Venice, FL. My experience at that…read moreoffice has been extremely frustrating. I can never actually speak to a human being when calling. I had an eye infection and needed an appt right away. I was not able to get an appt on the phone, so I made one on their website. There was no option for an emergency appt that I could find so I had to choose the option for an eye exam. Then, I was billed for a full eye exam and since I had one a few months ago, my insurance didn't pay. I called the billing dept, waited on hold for 30", finally left a message to call me back. 2 days went by and no call back, so had to drive over to the office and found that although the office was open, no billing person was there to help me. I will be looking for a small locally-owned clinic to avoid the headaches of this large corporation.

My appointment was primarily meant to treat an infected cyst on a lower eyelid'…read moreI agreed to a basic annual examination as my ophthalmologist has retired. However, the doctor knew the one eye had blurring from the OTC medical ointment. I did not request a Refraction exam for which I was charged $75, and this is not covered by insurance. In 50 years of eye examinations, I never was presented with this kind of bill. My eyes were way overly dilated. I felt blinded by normal light, (even wearing dark classes). plus had a headache and nausea for 7 hours, even the next day. The vision examination was 20/25. 20/25 vision is considered good and very close to "normal" (20/20). But the doctor gave me a paper to take to the optician in their office. I have Intraocular Lenses that are multi focal. I do not need classes. I felt it was just a sales pitch. The cyst was treated at the end of the appointment. Please do not send the automatic apology. I will not return.
