I called 4 times and got hung up on every SINGLE time. Also I was given a surgery date that was then canceled last minute. I was yelled at and treated poorly and as a person with autism I'm pretty sure that's a full on crime. After my surgery I don't intend to continue as a patient at mass eye and ear or mass general. The doctors are smart but their attitudes are meh and very questionable but everyone else is super rude and disrespectful. Wouldn't recommend this place

Great at wasting your time!…read more When speaking with the person that makes appointments I was assumed that they take VSP. Upon arrival for my appointment, they informed me that they are out of network for VSP. I mentioned that the person that scheduled my appointment assured me that they take VSP, they said then said that they do. They told me to pay for the appointment then and they would give me a receipt that could be submitted to VSP and VSP might reimburse some portion of the visit. Obviously, they are out of network and don't take VSP. What a waste of time. Not fun getting jerked around either...

I tried this clinic out because I needed a new eye doctor and glasses prescription…read more The tech was friendly, but the eye doctor himself was dismissive. He wrote a prescription without talking to me about astigmatism. I can't wear my glasses without getting dizzy. When checking out, the desk staff was pretty rude. Then I got a reminder to attend my follow up? For what? They automatically scheduled me for two appointments without checking my schedule or asking me to attend. It feels very paternalistic, doesn't feel like I was involved as a participant in my care. I didn't feel comfortable there and won't go back. Why should my insurance (or a patient) pay for appointments every three months if there's no ongoing treatment?

Pearl Vision and Dr. Paul V. Hamel are working the system and I will never go back to either one…read moreagain, just on principle! I went to Peal Vision/Dr. Hamel in February 2016 as I usually did in the beginning of the year for my glasses/contacts/exam. In years past I never had vision insurance, so I just paid out of pocket, but as of 1/1/16 I had vision insurance, wohoo! My first issue is when I went to use my vision insurance the sales associates were telling me that I didn't have those benefits available, that EyeMed didn't cover that etc. Since I am in charge of the employee benefits at my work and I was the one who researched and spoke with the new vision carrier, I knew otherwise. So I left there with only my exam and ordered my contacts. I went somewhere else to use my frame allowance, which went through the insurance no problem, btw. So a few weeks later I received my explanation of benefits from my vision insurance, no issues there. Then a few weeks after that I received an explanation of benefits from my health insurance carrier. It was for an eye exam that I supposedly had in March with Dr. Hamel, NEVER HAPPENED! Pearl Vision/Dr. Hamel submitted a claim to my health insurance (because they pay for an eye exam once every two years) after my vision insurance had already paid them for the exam in late February. Timing is not just coincidence, my vision insurance cut them a check on 2/26/16 and a claim was submitted for a fictitious exam the first week in March!?!?! I reached out to Dr. Hamel's office and they referred me to the Pearl Vision billing office. I spoke with someone in their billing office in April, who told me that the double billing of the exam was an error and would be reversed. I gave them some time to process the reversal at the end of June checked my claims with both carriers, NO REVERSAL. So I called and left a message at the billing office @ Pearl Vision on 6/21/16, they never called me back. Funny though...I called my insurance carrier and filled them in on the issue and surprise Pearl Vision/Dr. Hamel is going to actually process the reversal of the claim, shocking since the carriers can dump providers for things like this. I will never go back to Dr. Hamel or Pearl Vision ever again. Just another example of how the health industry in America is screwed up! I bet Dr.'s get away with this crap everyday and we pay the price in increased insurance premiums!

A few years ago she performed PTK on one of my eyes to remove some scarring, and most recently she performed cataract surgery on my eyes. The results have been awesome. I could write about her great bedside manner and sense of humor; of course I could try to state what a great eye surgeon she is. And I could try to convey the precision and attention to detail she brings to her work. Instead, I'll point out how I have run into numerous people who came to Doctor Wu AFTER another eye surgeon had messed up. I met two such people during the last month, including one just this morning. She is the doctor people such as I will tell you you should have seen. She is the doctor the other doctors say you should go to next. Your eyes are two of the most important things in your life. Entrust them to the best eye surgeon. Ed L Natick, MA
