I stumbled upon The Eye Doctors at Walmart in Eden Prairie and won't go anywhere else to have my eyes or the girls eyes examined. I know it's Walmart and many of you might not like Wal-mart. The eye practice is independently owned by Dr. Viker. The store where the frames are sold is Wal-mart but you can take your prescription to another eyeglasses store, if you so choose.
Five Things I Like About the Eye Doctors:
1. The price! It's less than $80 to have your eyes examined.
2. Dr. Viker is good! She worked for years alongside a M.D. and has experience with a variety of eye problems. Furthermore, she is not afraid to refer you a specialist if she feels it is beyond her ability. I witnessed her doing that just yesterday.
3. Time! Dr. Viker takes time with her patients. She is so good with the girls, really engages them and sincerely seems to care about them, remembering them and their interests. While little c had her examine, she taught the girls about astigmatism, near sightedness and far sightedness, and how you become an optometrist. She's not in a rush to get done with you.
4. Right! She does things right. When I ordered my contacts most recently deposits quickly adhered to my lenses. Dr. Viker reordered them twice for me, thinking it was just a bad batch and eventually went with a different manufacturer.
5. Kind! Yesterday I witnessed Dr. Viker giving one of her patients her cell phone number because she was not going to be working the following day. She told her patient she'd just be out and about doing errands and not to hesitate to call her on her vacation day.
Dr. Viker is a little secret. Maybe I should have put her under my Sarah Saves heading! Normally finding something affordable means I have to compromise on quality. This is definitely not the case when seeing Dr. Viker, she's a steal!
Go visit her; you won't be disappointed!!
