This office is so unprofessional! We had to book my daughter’s dentist appointment 3 months out. A couple days before her appt I called to confirm she had one because I did not get a call from them. I was told it was cancelled and I asked why wasn’t we called to reschedule…? She rudely said she don’t know probably because they short staffed and only one dentist is working 2 days a week. We sat awkwardly on the phone for a minute because she did not offer to reschedule so I asked to reschedule. At first she told me no because they not taking new patients. I informed her well you see we not new. We was there last year for her yearly eye exam. Then she reluctantly stated how far they are booked out. Again okay. Thank God my daughter is not having any problems that need immediate attention. So we booked another 3 months out. I called to confirm this appt and another rude staff member was pretending to not see this appt. After I confirmed time and date she found it. She asked if it was too early for yearly (Insurance coverage?) I stated no it’s approximately 6 months later. It’s like she wanted a reason to cancel. We drive over to Springfield for at least 3 different Dr appts because majority of the office staff in Decatur be so rude to patients. Now we have to go over there for eye appts. It’s really sad because the actual dentist is was pleasant and I’m sure they have no ideal so many customers are being ran off.

I’ve been a client here for years. Never any major problems. Seemed pretty played back. I Called in May to schedule an appointment with an optometrist. Was told I would need to be put on a list and they would call in June to schedule. I Called July 8th and was told there was never a list. Never going back again.

The only problem I have is the glasses become very scratched within months of getting them, following their guide line of cleaning. They are very friendly , courteous and helpful.

Took my daughter (12) for an exam and new glasses. Everything went great. We made an appointment, so there wasn't a notable wait time. Staff was super great and my daughter loves her glasses. The exam procedures went smoothly and she felt very comfortable the whole time. I was as excited as she was to pick up her new glasses 2 days later. Lol. She noticed an immediate improvement when she put them on. Thank y'all so much! We'll see y'all next time!!

**Edited to update *** After wearing my new glasses for a week, I experienced nausea and eye strain daily. I started to see spots in my right eye and I still am. I've had to wear glasses for over 30 years, so I know, this isn't normal. The office will only refund me for the frames, after their district manager looks them over. There's obviously something wrong with the lenses and now I'm out hundreds. Never again and I can no longer recommend. -Got me in for an exam fast. It was easy to pick out a pair of glasses and sunglasses with the nice selection. I would highly recommend Bard!
