The doctor really listened to the issues with my eyes and explained what was going on with them. I kept having to go back to get the exact right contact to get used to my changing eyes. He was very patient. I appreciated his kindness.

Five stars!! This is the first time I left comments on google map. The eye doctor (forget his name) is very nice and check everything in details! He even gives me instructions about how to protect my eyes and side notes he is pretty funny. The store manager is very nice too! He helped clean my boyfriend’s eyeglasses without charges and replace some parts of it, clean all the dirty green parts in the frames!
I would say this is the best one in Gainesville since I have been to several other glasses store… Feel like they only want u to pay the money and leave.

Do not go here. I went in for a routine contact exam due to my rx being expired and my vision wasn’t as good as it used to be. The dr first said my vision shouldn’t be changing at all at my age (this is incorrect). The dr also incorrectly jumped my rx up too high in both eyes (which I found out after seeing a new dr), he also insisted I had a focus issue and over the course of 2 weeks had me try two different (and new) contacts. After several days using each I told him my vision was worse than when I went in. He then told me my problem was too complex and he couldn’t help me anymore.
I ended up going to a new dr (shout out to alachua family eye care). My vision issue was immediately and easily fixed and I now see great. My rx only went up slightly in one eye, less than he said it did. Nothing was complex about it.
On top of the issues with my quality of care here, this place was in network with my vision insurance. They told me my vision insurance didn’t cover this type of exam and I had to pay for an exam that is usually covered. After my frustrations with the quality of care, I called my vision insurance asking why they won’t pay for this anymore and they told me they never received a bill and the exam should have been covered.
Do yourself a favor and see a different dr. I highly suggest Alachua Family eye care.
