Report
My husband had his Ray Ban frames break while he was in the middle of a 12 hour nursing shift. We had to bring him his old prescription glasses very late at night and this is the correct protocol according to Lisa the manager at Wilkinson Eye Center. Everyone should have their "old" pair with them is what I was was told told by Lisa. While my husband struggled to read patients charts, IV bags and Meds, and his glasses that cost nearly $400 were falling apart he was "supposed" rely on the old pair.
What an insensitive way to run a business. I asked for a new frame to be ordered so they ordered a new frame, but nothing else. Didn't offer a different frame, or a backup frame. Nothing. Will not be returning after this.

Right on time for appointments. Delightful staff, kind, helpful, patient, knowledgeable, and friendly. I've been going to this office since they opened and before (still on occasions) that the Pontiac for a combined total of 60 years. Highly recommend them for your eye care.

Messed up my script and "corrected" the wrong eye. When brought to their attention, they became offended and acted as though I didn't know what I was talking about. I then had a worker try to "trick" me and take me out front for an eye check to make an example of me in front of other patients in the waiting area. Very unprofessional and rude. I've never gone back and now HAVE to wear glasses at all times, rather than just reading because now, the good eye has been ruined from this script.

I was able to get an appointment fast; it was quick and painless. I only wish they had a larger selection of frames but fortunately they helped me find a cute pair! It took about a week to get them back. No complaints from me.

Dr Dustman is most likely the best I have seen. Takes great care to be as exacting as possible in her practice. Save your money. Don't go anywhere else. Absolutely best in the business.

I recently had cataract surgery with Dr. Wilkinson, and am very pleased with the results. Also, I got new glasses needed with the changes after surgery, and am so happy with these glasses. Now my mid-range, close range and distance are all very clear, something I hadn't experienced in awhile. All the staff have been very kind, and they accommodated my need for getting the glasses quickly, since we're moving out of state soon. I am totally happy with the whole experience.
