Dr. Came in didn't listen to anything I had to say had to repeat myself with the symptoms I was having. One of the symptoms I'm having is headaches said vision and headaches have nothing to do with each other. I think that was a. Complete bs statement but hey your the professional. When I left upset about waiting so long and not resolving my issues they have me pay for a charge they said the insurance doesn't cover. If there is a procedure you are going to do and it isn't covered by someone's insurance let them know ahead of time so they have the option to accept or decline. Will never go back!
Here is a truly nice thing: Unlike another provider, Dr. Smolyar did not try to up-sale me for a surgery for my other eye that has a cataract but not to the point that it is a problem. It may need surgery later or it may not, time will tell. Another point is their lenses to correct for astigmatism was 3/5 the cost (which insurance does not cover).
Very happy with the results and very happy I chose to get a second opinion with Dr. Smolyar. This office is not ran like a corporate machine trying to squeeze you. Everyone at the office was helpful and friendly, and not in a fake way.
Your review numbers great, if you do not like the review just delete it. SMH! I have called and went to the office to complained and gotten no where, obviously we have a lack of customer service care. I get my eyes checked, pay my 50$ copay, then I get a bill from this company for another 60$, I go to the office and am told that was for them to test me for My prescription, I’m sorry that what I came in for, I nor anyone I have spoken to have never been charged extra on top of the visit to figure out my prescription.
You may keep Deleting the messages and reviews but until someone talks to me, I will continue to give the review.
The office staff were efficient and helpful. Knowing that I was apprehensive they made me feel calm.
My eye exam went well.
The surgeon explained the procedure to remove the cataracts. Scheduling was very easy.
