Dr. Mitchell was a good doctor as far as I remember. But the current receptionist & billing know nothing about ins & are aggressive with collection. It seems the money is all they care about; zero customer service skills. Insisted I pay the full cost before being seen bcuz I hadn't met my deductible. I said I'd pay the Medicare fee schedule amount. Needless to say I wasn't seen. Medicare covers eyecare if there's a medical issue, not just basic eyecare. I've used Medicare at other Walmart eye clinics before w/no problem. It's also a filthy unkempt place. Won't be returning.

Dr. Mitchell is an excellent doctor. He takes his time and gives you a thorough exam. The receptionist is so friendly and accommodating. Hats off to Eyes over Carolina.

Love Dr. Mitchell! Been seeing him since I was a child. The staff are always very welcoming. They make the experience feel like you are family. Only downside is the small office, wait times can be long on busy days due to it.

Dr. Mitchell is AMAZING! He is very kind, patient, and personable! He explains each step and educates as he is giving the exams about what he is doing, why, and what it means!!! Myself and two sons have exams there. Also, Pam that schedules appointments is soooooooo sweet and very pleasant! She is very good and responding to messages and reaching out!
