Words do not describe my happiness with Dr Snodgrass and staff at NF Cataract & Surgery Center. With my eye problems I was hesitant to go forward with the mono-focal procedure but they gave me the usual eye test, I answered every letter (20 20 vision)!

This was one of the most important decisions in my life, at 62 I thought I was destined to struggle with glasses for ever. Not only was the surgery and incredible success, the care and treatment by the professional staff and Dr. Snodgrass was amazing. "Life altering" is the only way to explain what this surgery has done for me. I would highly recommend Dr. Snodgrass and his team.

I wish I could zero stars. The lady I dealt with named Kathy was extremely rude. I paid for an eye exam and have ordered multiple pairs of glasses and years worth of contacts from them. My dog chewed my glasses and since my insurance for glasses was already used this year, I needed my pupillary distance in order to buy some cheap replacements elsewhere until I could use my insurance with them again.
She not only would not give me the glasses prescription but tried to give me my contacts prescription without all of the needed info. When I asked for the Bc and diameter for my contacts prescription she gave me more attitude and then went to the back for ten minutes trying to find it when it should have been on the prescription they handed me. What's the point of paying for an eye exam if they won't give it to you? I will never give them my business again and advise others to do the same. They do not care about their patients, only about profits.

My husband and I have been seeing Dr. Snodgrass for our various eye issues for at least 20 years. I would not trust my eyes to anyone else. Yes, I have had to wait awhile several times over the years, but it's a busy practice and I plan for it. The office staff is always professional and kind. I'm not sure I understand the comments about being changed $50 for your Rx if you don't buy your glasses from them.
I only just bought mine from them this year for the first time (because of the great selection), and for years had gotten my lenses/frames elsewhere. Never charged anything. Husband either. Never any hidden fees. Highly recommend, and Dr. S will continue to take care of my cataracts, dry eyes, & other issues. One last thing; if your kids can't keep their hands off of expensive frames, that's on YOU: not the person who works there having to do your job. "They're kids" is no excuse.

Friendly, professional and knowledgeable staff willing to go the extra mile to answer questions and provide information. Dr. Gray is exceptional in his patient communication and technical knowledge. Every interaction with this group was five star plus.

Coming off the heels of the last review, it seems that they are having major issues with scheduling, which looks like has been happening for a while. I made an appointment a month ago, came in, and waited about an half hour. I asked the people at the front desk, who were very nice, when they thought I would be called. They checked and said I would be next. I sat down, and the people in the back promptly called two other people, so I informed the staff that I could not wait any longer. Most of the patients seemed to be a bit older, so if you are taking a small amount of time off from work to get an eye exam done, this probably isn't the place to go.
