I've been a patient at Mill Creek Family Eye Center for over 12 years and have consistently had…read moregreat experiences. I even continued scheduling appointments here while living in Oregon because I couldn't find a provider I liked as much. Everyone, from the front desk staff to the optometrists, is friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. Whenever I've had questions, they've taken the time to answer them thoroughly and make sure I understood. I highly recommend Mill Creek Family Eye Center for quality eye care and excellent customer service.

The doctor and optical department were amazing and took great care of me (as always)…read more Unfortunately, the pre-testing staff were not so friendly. I was late to my appointment, and instead of being offered to reschedule, I was rushed into my appointment. The staff said they were "doing me a favor" by letting me still be seen, but I've never been treated so harshly at this eye clinic. This was after me apologizing for being late and even agreeing to do the additional (and out of pocket) OptoMap photos to speed up the appointment. If my late arrival was such a burden to the schedule, I would've rather just rescheduled.

I have very complicated eyes and see an ophthalmologist at UW for most of my eye care, but what…read moreopthalmologists don't generally do well are refractions. My vision has been much worse in the last year or so, so I finally bit the bullet and scheduled a refraction at Town Center Eye. Dr. Hamilton was fantastic! We chatted for a bit, and he took time to understand my eyes. He's the only optometrist I've had who explained why my vision might be getting worse and how exactly he planned to correct it. He spent a good amount of time really dialling in my prescription and assessing my visual processing. He was personable and knowledgeable. I'd highly recommend him! The front of the office was also very helpful and knowledgeable. They jumped right to helping me find the perfect pair of glasses. They have a nice selection of frames.

This review is completely about the sales, has nothing to do with the optometrist there…read more I went there asking about the price of a pair of eyeglasses. Amanda told me that my insurance covered the entire price, except for the cost of tier 3 anti-glaring/scratch at $120. (strike ONE) Now, I was thinking, what's the point of paying high premiums for great insurance if I still have to fork over $120 plus tax? Plus, I knew the add-on of tier 3 is optional. So, I threw out, "Why do I have to pay for the $120, tier 3? Can't I just get my glasses without that extra cost?" She said, I "had to pay for it." (strike TWO) So, to get this straight because I didn't want to misinterpret; I wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt before going on Yelp, I said, "Is this cost unavoidable? Is it compulsory." She said, yes. (strike THREE) At that point, I said, wow, Amanda really is trying to scam me for a commission. So, I made eye contact with her and 'asked' in a way she would know I knew, "Why can't I go tier 1 and pay $32?" (you're outta here!!!!) Her response: "Uhh, you can." WORD OF WARNING. If you bought glasses there recently and ended up buying the tier 3 anti-glaring/scratch because you 'had to'..... Well, at least it comes with a 2-year warranty, and you made the sales lady happy.

I went to the place twice in the past. When I first time went to the store, it was about over year…read moreago, the service lady (sorry, I didn't get her name) was so nice, she helped me with picking frames, I tried several of them. She was so patience, and very nice. but my insurance didn't have contract with them. The second time I stopped there was last Friday, because my glasses had been hit by something, and the shape changed little, and not balanced well on both sides legs. She adjusted it, and cleaned it very well including the pads, which I even asked to clean. My glasses is multi focus, after she adjusted it, I see things even more better than ever, I can see a lot better then before. I am so happy, and strong recommend the place.

First off, the optical staff, technicians, optometrist, are really good. They are nice to the…read morepatients, professional and as far as I can tell competent. They even caught a stigmatism that was missed by my previous eye doctor which made a big difference on how I saw things. Now where star were lost were: 1. I feel as if this clinic kinda nickel and dimes you. Of all the vision clinic's I've been to over the years, this is the only place I can't seem to go to w/o always having to pay for something out of pocket. If it's covered by insurance there's something that they say it isn't and it'll cost you. To top it off, their products are pricey with regards to frames, lenses, contacts, services, etc. My last visit I had at Mill Creek Vision for my annual preventative eye exam, but they got me out of pocket for contact lens fitting (which I thought was covered my insurance, but they claim it isn't), Anyhoo, afterwards I asked for copies of my glasses and contact prescriptions and took them to Costco and purchased all my hardware there (despite jumping through some minor insurance hoops to get my annual hardware allowance back-which I did). Gotta tell ya, definitely more cost effective going that route. 2. But the biggest loss of stars in my rating is due to their front desk staff. A staff that DOES NOT know the meaning of CUSTOMER SERVICE and lacks a certain amount of professionalism. They are very condescending in how they talk and treat their customers. I base this on how they were with me and my family and how I observed them with other customers while I waited. There is one or two who stand out. If you've been there you probably know who I'm talking about. Anyhoo, they will make you feel as if you are interrupting them, putting them out for "Doing their job". They don't always do what is best for the patient/customer so if you don't ask, or question something chances are it'll get overlooked, ignored and you might get over charged or something forgotten. It doesn't help also that they seem to rush you at check in and during check out so they can get back to finger blasting their keyboards or phones. Again based on personal experience. The first three appointments I was able to schedule me and my family for the same day. If there's availability why not? Last time I tried to do it and despite open availability they denied it. Their reason I was told on the phone, they CAN'T schedule more than two family members at a time. WHAT? REALLY? So I ask why not, you've done it before and they tell me that it's policy. I try and continue to ask specifics about this policy and I'm told again, it's their policy and something about cancellation issues. Yeah whatever, I figure they're just being lazy. Policy or not, kinda ridiculous that they can't accommodate two adults and a child on the same day...oh wait a minute they have! but not today. Then there's a test that they do that looks at the back of your eyeball. You'd think it's a test that SHOULD be standard to an eye exam. It is an eye exam after all...it isn't so it'll cost you since it's NOT COVERED BY INSURANCE as part of your PREVENTATIVE CARE. Of course you can pass and instead they dilate your eyes for free I think (or maybe that'll cost you as well, I don't know, but what I do know, I've had that same test in other clinics and it was covered by insurance). Trying to get them to explain results in dirty looks and a mean-girl attitude...an no REAL explanation. So the "face" of the business does not make a good impression and they obviously don't realize that it's just as important as the service provided. This would be my 4th appointment to this vision clinic, but the front desk staff attitude has been pretty much consistent through out. So me and my family will probably be on the look out for another vision clinic. Too bad their front desk staff doesn't have the same customer service skills their optical staff does.

Called and was put on hold for a long time while the staff was checking my insurance. She told me…read moreto call back because she could not verify my insurance. Be very aware that your treatment is based on how much money this office can get from your visit. I saw my insurance statement that they wanted to charge almost 4 times of the insurance allowance. Because they know they would not be able to get the money they want, they treated my eye exam very casually. The tech took two tests that lasted less than 2 minutes. The doc took less than 4 minutes flipping a few charts of 1 better or two better, then wrote my eye exam prescription, which is the exact same as the that of the eye glasses I wore that day. I spent a lot more time signing many documents and waited in front than the total time for the actual eye exam. Do NOT recommend this place to anyone. The practice can be defined as unethical!

I was in the waiting area and a technician entered. She asked for me and didn't introduce herself…read more In the room where we went, she began an abruptly worded interrogation. "Do you wear glasses?" (Look at my chart...I've been coming here for several years.) I didn't say that...but, began to wonder. I held up my sunglasses and informed her that I wear these and they are prescription sunglasses. Then, she asked if they are sunglasses. What?!? Didn't I just show them and state that? Her feeble attempts at communication went downhill from there. She doesn't listen. It's difficult when someone is only thinking of his/her next question and doesn't listen to your responses. Attitude is everything and hers was anything but friendly. I endured, but... When I'm around that sort of lousy customer service, I start to withdraw. I began responding to her unfriendly demands with brief responses or silence, if the question didn't require an answer. When I asked questions about the procedures, she became defensive...and her answers conveyed a condescending tone/attitude. During the part where she was asking "is number one or number two more clear", I was giving clear answers. She suddenly stopped and demanded to know if I had a problem with her. (Oh boy...here we go...) Her demeanor was totally confrontational and somewhat shocking. In response to her demand, I informed her that she was not being very friendly or welcoming. In an angry tone, she expounded that she is "the friendliest person in the office". (Then, the office is in serious trouble.) I laughed. It was ridiculous. Absurd! She suggested I have a different technician. I quickly agreed to that plan. She turned and walked-out...closing the door as she left. So...by then, I was sitting alone, waiting, and began experiencing a lot of anxiety. I wanted to flee the extremely uncomfortable scene...immediately. I did. I will never return.
