I've been coming to this location for over 10 years. Dr Gerald Thompson is my Optometrist. Now his…read moredaughter Dr Kathryn Thompson is the owner though I still see Dr Gerald Thompson. Plus all of the staff are friendly and helpful. I recently had a problem with my right eye which scared me. I woke up with sticking and tears streaming from my eye and I had problems seeing clearly from that eye. I thought it would soon go away but it didn't, it actually got worse. The following day I went into Thompson Eye Care but Dr Gerald wasn't there so I saw Dr Kathryn. She was super helpful and gentle with my eye. She ran thorough exams and explained everything she was doing. By the time she was through my eye felt a bit better and she called in prescription which I picked up that night and I was told to return the next day. The following day my eye felt better but still had the same symptoms this time I saw Dr Gerald who greeted me and told me Dr Kathryn apprised him of my problem. He ran a couple tests and took photos and he explained what he was seeing. He asked me some questions which made me realize that I had wiped my eye with a tissue and it scratched my eye. This caused the discomfort and an infection. This is the reason I have been coming to this place for my eye care. This father/daughter team is super able to make me feel taken care of. Over the years I have had my eye problems handled effectively, they are both patient and helpful. I actually know a couple of neighbors who also come here and they both love their services.

I am very satisfied with Dr Katherine Thompson and her staff. She gives a thorough exam, without…read morerushing you and the exam Includes blood pressure screening. Dr Thompson listens and reviews my notes from previous years. Tanya and the other staff are all pleasant, knowledgeable, experienced and have worked there for many, many years. I am not an easy patient/customer and I highly recommend this practice.

Ever get so frustrated after doing your due diligence to make sure a place not only took your…read moreinsurance but had a doctor and appointment available? Yeah, me too. I set up my appointment well ahead of time, did everything I needed to do online to expedite the check in process. Thinking it was going to be a fast appointment. However, when I showed up, I still had to fill out several pages of paperwork and provide my insurance cards. Once I filled out my forms, I went back to the desk and was told that I didn't give them my correct insurance card. Funny, because the card I gave you said Visual right on it. Once that was over, I was then told that they didn't take my insurance. I'm calling bull on this. I did my research before hand. Searched for a doctor nearby on my insurance website, this place showed up. They then tell me that I could go up the street to another location and they would take my insurance (that was a bold faced lie, I went to another location and was told the same thing). Plus, I scheduled this appointment for a Saturday so I didn't need to take time off work to attend. I was told that I could pay out of pocket and then submit a claim. But why would I do that. You are making me do you work, because I wasn't here for just an exam, but to get new glasses. Sounds an awful lot like a scam. No thank you.

I was there at the Saturday April 11 9am son and i we seem dr. Gonzalez for few years for eye…read moreexam yearly. but Saturday April 11 9am dr Gonzalez was mind nasty. He asked me how i was with my glasses. i started to answer that unfortunately i didn't use my glasses for a year because when i walked, i saw a hole on the floor. he did not like my situation because i was not happy with his prescription. i told him, how am i going to be happy if i can't see with the lenses, and he replied, if not, then you can go to another doctor. for me, that was not professional because he does not listen to his patients, how they feel. he charges for the service; it is not free. i pay for my insurance; it is not given to me. i do not pay a doctor to be treated badly, but for the medical service. if he didn't sleep well Friday night, it's not to take it out on his patients, not because of the medical service. I spoke with the manager she only listened to my discontent i know she can't do anything just listen to the customers i pay for them to help me with my health, not for them to mistreat me as if they are providing the service for free. he needs to learn be more empathy listen those patients concern. the day was words experience in my life early in my life 9am he md but he needs to respect patient not unrespect people his doing the service for free. the staff very nice

The lenses on that machine were dirty and it was difficulty to see through the foggy lenses. Please clean those more regularly. Other than that, it was a successful visit!

I highly recommend Dr. Summerfield. This is my second positive review in a couple years. I have…read moregreat confidence in him and feel safe in his care. His professionalism and skill are exceptional. He sets a high standard for ophthalmology. He saved my eyesight and went above and beyond to find a solution to my vision loss when another doctor couldn't. I am so happy I found Dr. Summerfield. His offices are well equipped, beautiful and the staff well qualified and helpful. You might have to wait a little, but believe me - it is well worth it!

Mywellness eye appointment today:with Washington eye Institute…read more in Greenbelt Maryland. My appointment was at 2:15 PM Today Tuesday December 2, 2025 I received the standard text a few days prior to confirm my appointment which I did. The day of don't forget to arrive 15 minutes early for your appointment today Text arrived too. I arrived for my appointment promptly at 1:50 PM, which is 25 minutes before my appointment. I checked in at the desk and was told to have a seat some one would call you back soon. I noticed the waiting room was pretty much totally full with almost every chair taken. At 3:30 PM, I was finally called to the back where I was escorted and told to have a seat and they would be with me shortly to take me to the exam room. Apparently the process at Washington eye Institute is similar to waiting for a Disney ride. So approximately 3:45 I was escorted to a room where they began running some Tests and After one Test. I was told I'd have to wait as the next machine was being used. This process took a while. Finally the machine was Available and after that test was told to have another seat in the hall again and they will call me to another room. At approximately 4:20 PM. I was escorted to another room where they performed another eye test and I was given eyedrops to dilate my eyes. Then I was escorted back into the hall and told to wait where other patients were waiting wondering who would be the next lucky patient to go back to another room At this point, I struck up a conversation with other patients whose appointments were at 2 o'clock and 2:15 PM and such patients becoming quite irritated with the long wait. It's interesting. They want you there on time but seem to have no regards for your time once you've checked in and paid your co-pay At 4:50 I was escorted to another room where they told me to have a seat and the doctor would be in shortly. Finally at 4:55 PM the doctor came into the room and proceeded to give me an eye exam. At this point I voiced displeasure and that this had happened before and I thought the office was very unorganized with respect to scheduling and long waiting time. if there was a staff shortage and knew there would be a long waiting period they should' contact the patient to reschedule or offer them the opportunity to reschedule. The doctor was apologetic and told me to see the office manager when I checked out. Upon checking out I asked to speak to the office manager, Her name is Dana and I was told Dana had left earlier which I find interesting that she's not there to try and coordinate the chaos with how late the appointments ran. The lady checking me out, asked me if I had sunglasses since my eyes were dilated. I looked out the window and said well it's dark outside. I don't think I'll be needing them. . The first time for me is ignorance. The second time is stupidity on my part as this isn't the first time I've had this issue with Washington eye Institute running very late. I will be looking for a new ophthalmologist and I Will NOT be patronizing Washington Institute in the future. I am done. In closing, if you like long Disney wait time rides, make an appointment with Washington eye Institute in Greenbelt Maryland.

The reception staff were polite, welcoming, and knowledgeable, making the check-in process smooth and efficient. The doctors were kind, professional, and took the time to ensure everything went well during my visit. Overall, it was a positive experience from start to finish. I'll definitely be returning and would recommend them to others looking for quality eye care.

One improvement I'd suggest is handling insurance checks and paperwork prior to the appointment, as this seemed to be the biggest delay and really set my schedule back. Also, please be aware that the streets around the office are currently undergoing significant construction, which added about 15 minutes to my commute due to blocked roads. I'd recommend giving yourself extra time to account for this if you have an upcoming appointment. That said, the staff were all very friendly and professional, which helped balance out the waiting frustrations. I was seen by Dr. Patel, who provided an exceptionally thorough eye exam and gave me helpful recommendations for my eye care moving forward. Overall, while the wait time and construction were drawbacks, the friendly staff and quality care give me hope that next year's visit will be smoother and more efficient!
