Disappointing Experience at Boshinski Eye Clinic I was hopeful for a change from the usual big-box eye care chains when I visited Boshinski Eye Clinic. Unfortunately, my experience was far from positive. From the start, I was met with unexpected hurdles. Despite needing an updated prescription, I was informed that my insurance wouldn’t cover contacts or glasses for another three months. While I understood this policy, it felt frustrating given my immediate need. The eye exam itself went well, with the doctor providing helpful information. However, the issues arose afterwards. Upon checking out, I was presented with a hefty $150 bill. The receptionist explained that while they couldn’t process my contact order, I also was not eligible for my annual eye exam. After the exam took place. Had I known this beforehand, I would have saved myself the time and money. The clinic’s pushiness was another major drawback. They aggressively encouraged me to schedule a future appointment requiring my medical insurance and were insistent on me trying the brands of contact lenses they promote, rather than the one I’ve used for over 15 years. Their behavior bordered on rude, especially when I asked for sample lenses. The overall atmosphere at Boshinski Eye Clinic was unpleasant. The staff seemed disinterested and condescending during subsequent phone calls. I cannot recommend this clinic based on my experience.

I had a great experience with Dr. Debra Boshinski and her staff. This was my first time visiting, my former eye doctor moved away and his practice went corporate. I prefer to deal with independent health care. The exam was very thorough as was the explanations. Glad to have found this place!
I wanted to find an eye clinic that could protect my eyes from being affected by my type 2 diabetes, as well as vision correction, and would accept my insurance. I think I found it at Boshinski Eye Clinic. Dr Bill explains everything in plain language, without rushing through the visit, and has a sense of humor. Unlike some other reviews on Boshinski clinic that I read on Google, the staff was friendly in my experiences. I liked that Dr Bill evaluates my situation, then advices how to proceed. I am put off by other clinics that seem to push expensive tests that are not really required.
My wife and I drove approximately 350 miles round trip from Seaford, DE due to our trust and faith in service provided by the Boshhinski Eye Clinic. Our previous experience with either, Mr. or Mrs. Boshinski, has always been great. Since moving to Delaware 10 years ago we have failed to locate a local eye Doctor that offers service that even comes close to that provided by Boshinski. Failing to locate a good eye Doctor after multiple attempts we elected to drive the long trip and it was certainly worth while. After 10 years we now have the best eye glasses since moving. Furthermore, Dr. William Boshinski identified my wife's eye problem that had been overlooked for several years and assisted my wife in finding a resolution. Oh! Complementing the Boshinski Team is a great and very friendly staff that makes one feel like family. Guess anyone reading this would have to admit my wife and I are completely sold on the Boshinski Eye Clinic and for good reasons. After all, eyes aren't cheap so why should I settle for 2nd best when Boshinski Eye Clinic is available.
I had a fantastic experience at the Boshinski Eye Clinic. I am a 58 year old man who has never worn glasses. Dr. Boshinski's assistant Jill performed several tests and was fun to work with. Then I met with Dr. Bochinski and he performed more in depth analysis which concluded with a prescription not only to help me see better but to correct some problems I have in my right eye. His attitude and personality matched his professionalism. He answered all my questions and provided a great deal of information. Dr. Bochinski knows his profession and his "bed side" manner was incredible. From there I went to pick out glasses. I then met back up with Jill who assisted me with picking out the right pair for my face and overall look. Jill was sincere and genuine in helping. I was actually embarrassed with with the daunting task in choosing but Jill commented that the the most enjoyable part of her job was helping patients choose glasses! The other girls in the office Jessica and Amanda helped as well giving sincere suggestions as if they were my best friends offering advice. From start to finish, this whole process has been truly a great experience.
