I made an afternoon appointment approximately four to five weeks ago for a general eye exam. This was a new patient visit. The day of my appointment I called to confirm as I thought it was a little strange that nobody followed up with me to verify I was coming in. I called them and a recording said the office was closed. I proceeded to go there anyway thinking maybe they were closed for lunch. When I got there they were indeed closed with a note on the door that said “Closed for Training”. Needless to say I was very angry that the staff could be so incompetent and unprofessional as to not call me and reschedule. On another note I should have realized there was something wrong with waiting so many weeks for this type of exam. Medical yes but a general eye exam? This practice is a waste of time. I do not recommend using them.

Dr. Smilen is very caring for the health and well being of my eyes, I've been with him for years until I got PRK surgery and he's been caring for my post op still. The ladies at the desk are amazing, friendly and will make sure your needs are met. Wide selection of glasses to choose from, some selections are insurance covered, as well as contacts are available.

Knowledgeable helpful doctor, kind and friendly. Horrible time management though, expect to wait way past your appointment time before you see him. For my past two appointments, I waited over an hour which caused me to miss more work than anticipated. The office staff and doctor didn't have any sense of urgency despite how long I had been waiting.
