A
GOOD
INITIAL
VISIT
TURNS
INTO
A
HORRIBLE
OVERALL
EXPERIENCE!!
My
first
visit
to
the
Toronto
Eye
Clinic
was
10/25/2022.
I
took
my
elderly
Mom
for
a
full
eye
exam.
She
had
the
Ocular
Coherence
Tomograpy
test
followed
by
the
standard
eye
test
with
Dr.
Peter
Spear.
He
was
professional
and
knowledgeable
and
seemed
quite
genuine
about
Mom's
eye
health.
I
decided
to
order
her
glasses
at
the
same
time,
one
stop
shop.
The
staff
members
assisting
us
were
helpful
so
I
decided
to
fill
my
prescription
issued
by
another
Doctor
and
hadn't
yet
expired.
(under
11
months)
THIS
WAS
A
TERRIBLE
MISTAKE
ON
MY
PART.
I
have
worn
glasses
all
my
life
and
I
had
never
experienced
anything
like
this
before.
Progressives
were
suggested
for
me.
After
2
attempts
there
was
something
still
not
right
with
my
glasses.
I
voiced
my
concerns
to
the
staff
and
subsequently
it
was
escalated
to
the
Manager(I
believe
her
name
was
Nadei)
or
something
similar
to
that.
She
verbally
humiliated
me
in
the
presence
of
other
customers
by
raising
her
voice
and
accusing
me
of
abusing
their
customer
service
policy.
Instead
of
trying
to
resolve
the
issue
of
why
my
glasses
were
not
working
for
me
she
was
busy
attempting
to
upsell
thinner
more
expensive
lenses.
Horrifying
and
disgusting!!
It
was
the
most
unprofessional,
disrespectful
and
condescending
behavior
that
was
ever
directed
to
me(
a
paying
customer)
Nadei
was
unapologetic
for
her
behavior
and
now
I'm
left
with
glasses
that
are
not
serving
me
welI.
My
Mom
purchased
her
glasses
here.
I
also
referred
my
brother
after
my
initial
visit
and
he
had
his
eyes
tested
and
also
purchased
glasses.
They
were
both
horrified
that
I
was
treated
with
such
contempt.
Despite
the
despicable
experience
I
decided
to
book
a
thorough
eye
exam
with
Dr.
Peter
Spear
on
May
11th,
2023.
I
had
all
applicable
specialzed
tests
and
standard
eye
exam.
Prescriptions
were
issued
for
glasses
and
contacts.
The
Reception
Desk
offered
to
order
a
trial
pair
of
contacts
for
me.
Against
my
better
judgment
I
said
yes.
It's
June
18th,
2023
and
I
have
yet
to
receive
a
call
from
the
Toronto
Eye
Clinic.
I
followed
up
3
weeks
ago
and
was
told
only
the
left
contact
came
in
and
they
were
waiting
for
the
right
eye
and
someone
would
call
me
when
it's
ready.
Still
waiting...
As
with
glasses,
I've
also
worn
contacts
for
a
long
time
and
I
know
for
a
fact
that
ordering
a
trial
pair
does
not
take
over
a
month.
I
believe
the
Reception
Desk
was
instructed
not
to
proceed
with
the
order.
Again,
they
offered.
If
you
were
to
add
up
the
amount
of
money
spent
by
my
Mom,
brother
and
myself
it
would
be
in
excess
of
$2000.
The
experience
has
left
a
bad
taste
in
my
mouth.
This
is
definitely
not
the
way
to
increase
your
customer
base.
Customers
are
the
backbone
of
every
business.
The
manner
in
which
I
was
treated
tells
me
I'm
of
no
importance
to
this
establishment.
I
will
not
lose
sleep
over
this
terrible
experience
but
I
felt
compelled
to
share
I'm
trying
extremely
hard
not
to
think
that
my
skin
colour
had
a
role
to
play
in
how
I
was
treated
but
perhaps
that's
a
reality
I
need
to
consider.
