One Price Optical

The good doctor in charge of this practice has since seen fit to further demonstrate his remarkable lack of professionalism by providing details of my horrifying visit to the online community which I feel are a violation of my HIPAA rights. I have taken a screen capture of his comment and will be consulting an attorney acquaintance to pursue this troubling matter. I also intend to bring local and social media attention to his unapologetically racist policy barring non-​English-​speaking individuals from his practice. Completely unbelievable.

This place is horrendous. The doctor is an old man who is extremely prideful when he shouldn’t be. The patient form I filled out said that they don’t accept patients who don’t speak English. I was disgusted by the discrimination that takes place at this establishment. I would not recommend this place to anyone. The doctor is very rude and when you ask questions he gets defensive and assumes you’re trying to say he’s wrong or something. He kept cutting me off when I was talking and walked out of the room and refused to treat me because I had a question about my glasses! When it comes to my health I believe I should be able to ask questions so I fully understand. I am DISGUSTED by this doctor and the way this place is ran. Ps I waited over an hour for my appointment and it’s not like he was doing anything. He was sitting with the receptionists and talking while I was clearly waiting patiently for my appointment.

I went to One Price Optical 2 days ago after I went to Tyson optical. At Tyson, I was examined by an assistant and charged $ 45.00 for the refraction exam. I wanted a second opinion and went to One Price. I was seen by a doctor of optometry and sure enough, his findings were different than Tyson’s. Just the lenses only were close to $ 600 at Tyson, at One Price $ 200 including frames. Two days later, I got my glasses. A big thanks to Todd for his patience and to the optometrist who examined me!

I scheduled my appointment here because I found it on my VSP site and its also really close to my home. I have to take off work early to make my appointment, for some reason this area doesn’t have any offices open on Saturdays. I went in for my eye exam in an effort to make sure my eyes were healthy and to check if my vision had worsened.
My intention wasn’t to purchase any glasses that day but certainly take home my prescription. First of all, they couldn’t find my sheet with my insurance info, it seems it was shredded the night before by mistake but before we knew this, the receptionist claimed I did not have VSP or wasn’t eligible. I told him there was no way. I’ve only used my insurance once this year and that was to order my contacts since VSP gives you $ 150 allowance. So he stood corrected and later apologized.
This Doctor according to the Patient form i filled out, does not accept patients that don’t speak English! How outrageous is that considering this is Florida and its blatant discrimination. He also wouldn’t prescribe eye drops for my sensitive right eye, I have never met an eye doctor that didn’t prescribe drops for inflammation! He says he can’t check corneas or eye infections bc its medical! He literally said, he wasn’t trained for that and that he would lose business!
I pretty much wasted my time at this place. I’ve scheduled another appointment in Ft. Myers who is a cornea specialist.
