This has been, without a doubt, the worst customer service experience I’ve had. While the doctor has been great, the front desk staff has been rude to me on two separate occasions, which has made the overall experience extremely frustrating. During my appointment for colored contact lenses, I was given clear trial lenses to test. Based on those, I confirmed that I could see well and moved forward with placing the order. However, when I received the colored lenses, my vision was noticeably blurry—to the point where I couldn’t even comfortably use my phone. Now I am being told that I have to pay out of pocket for clear lenses because my benefits have already been used. I do not feel this is fair, as the issue only became apparent after receiving the final product. I made my decision based entirely on the trial lenses provided, which did not accurately reflect how the colored lenses would perform. Additionally, the doctor personally called me to schedule a re-check appointment, but due to a travel extension, I needed to reschedule. I have now been calling for the past two days and no one answers the phone. This lack of communication is unacceptable, especially when trying to resolve an issue they are already aware of. I hope Dr Clark reads this review.

Dr. Clark himself is really kind and great at his job. His front office staff is awful. The lady that answers the phone is rude. As other reviewers have stated. They refuse to schedule my family citing that others have canceled. We had been going here for years and now they can't see us all. Awful policy for those of us who travel from other sides of town to see Dr. Clark. What a dumb reason to lose 4 loyal customers.
I genuinely like Dr. Clark as a doctor. He’s very kind, professional, and takes the time to make you feel comfortable during appointments. I also don’t have any real issues with the front office staff; they’ve never been rude or unprofessional to me. That said, the overall office experience has been very frustrating. The phone is rarely, if ever, answered. I’ve been calling repeatedly for weeks trying to get my prescription with no success. When I do come in person, I usually end up waiting at least 40 minutes past my appointment time. The office itself is also tiny and cramped, making the long waits even more uncomfortable. It’s disappointing because I really do like the doctor, but the lack of communication and long delays have made it too difficult to continue. Because of this, I’ve decided to look for a different doctor.
Excellent experience from start to finish. The staff was welcoming, the exam was thorough, and Dr. Clark took time to explain everything clearly. I felt genuinely cared for and never rushed. Highly recommend!
Friendly front desk. Dr was very nice and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain everything he was doing. Only place we called that wasn't booked out for months. We were seen in a timely manner.
