Today was my first time at Itec. It was absolutely a terrible experience I have ever had. The lady in pink in the back doing eye exams was so rude and rushing me.

I deplore the lady named Angela who returns the patient's calls. Every time that I have talked to her she has been very rude. Also this year I have had three appointments, two for infections and the last for exam. Still have problems.

Front office personnels are rude. I asked them did they take Humana Vision Insurance. Front office person stated Humana doesn't have vision insurance. I'm sorry do you work for Humana miss big neck cause obviously Humana does have vision insurance.

The staff was nice but the doctor wasn't very patient with my child. Definitely not good with children. I will just have to drive 80 miles to childrens because I wouldn't subject him to that again.

Anita, office manager at ITEC is rude, unprofessional and condescending. If ITEC wants to keep existing patients/customers or acquire new patients/customers maybe they need to hire a more professional employee or offer employee training classes on customer service etiquette!
