Eye care was great, but follow up by staff regarding a referral for vision therapy warrants a "0". I ended up changing providers to Spartanburg Vision.
Dr. Powell is fantastic. Take your prescription and leave. Go somewhere you’ll be treated as a valued customer by professionals that know exactly what they’re selling, who will answer questions and actually know the lenses, coatings, transitions etc. This place, you’re just $$$$!!!
I never thought this place would treat there patience how they treated me, my mother, and my son. If there was a negative option I would put it. My mother made a appointment upon arrival she was told there is no appointment schedule for her that she would need to make another and it wasn't time for her to be seen, but if she wanted to be seen she would have to pay out of pocket because her insurance would not cover it. I was there and my son also. Hearing that I said ok I need to reschedule me and my son's appointment to. At the time we were supposed to be new patients. So we rescheduled. When she showed up to her appointment they told her once again it's not showing she made a appointment and she was a no call no show for the last. Not only was my mother done like that me and my son was treated with the same thing. I never got a call from them n my mother either. Each time a appointment was rescheduled we was told that we never rescheduled and our appointment that we did had we were a no call no show. We made sure the appointment dates were correct because we were giving appointment cards. Even showing them the appointment cards they said it's still not showing in the system. We were threatening by them saying if we don't leave they would call the police. We left and found a better place.
The eye exam was perfect but stopped there. I went to select glasses and was told to look around and feel free to try them on. She disappeared. My eyes are dilated and cannot see but told to look for glasses and how much my insurance would pay. I can barely see the glasses and there is no way to see the price of the frames. How much my insurance would pay was irrelevant at that point. You would think someone trying to sell glasses would offer assistance but not here. She didn't appear again until the ladies at checkout called her over for my paperwork. Get you exam here but do yourself a favor and go elsewhere if you want any assistance with selecting glasses. Only want your money.
