Doctors and front desk were very professional and good but the part of the glasses were not good at all. Started off rude when we told them that the glasses were crooked, said the insurance wouldnt pay yet took the money + out of pocket money, and gave us the WRONG glasses; nothing like we had saw the first time.
Would not recommend at all. I went in for an appointment at 9 am and did not end up leaving until 12 pm. It was very frustrating and I kept informing the staff of how long I’ve been waiting and all they would do is give me the runaround and say I was either one patient away or next. This wasn’t true, there were still several people going in before me that got there after me.Once I got into the room to see the doctor, I informed her of how long I’ve been waiting and asked if they usually schedule that many people. She became offended and did not even apologize for the wait time, instead blamed it on the administration. She also informed me that there are 4 doctors and 4 patients scheduled every 15 minutes throughout the day (total of 60 patients every hour). I waited a whole 2 1/2 hours just to see the doctor for a total of 5 minutes. Would not recommend unless you like wasting time.
The wait time is terrible. There is too many doctors in one tiny building with Not Enough waiting area. The place is old and not very clean. The receptionists are surrounded by a lot of clutter. If you have an appointment then you should not have to wait 2 hours. I realize that it’s about the money. The more patients are seen a day, the more money they make.
I have been a patient at South Texas Eye Center for a couple of years, and I continue to be satisfied with their service. My last visit was in February and as usual wait time was minimal. Thank you Dr. Reddy for your continued professionalism, attention, and care. You are truly amazing!
