Rude receptionist when I called today. What an arrogant attitude & apparently they dont want new customers with a front line like that.Ive never been spoken to like that and with the unemployment rate what it is.Id think they could employ someone with a personality & manners.

I was referred to Dr Lane when my lids sagged over my eyes. My lids were obstructing my vision. She said it would be easy and a quick recovery. It was none of the above! Im still having problems with vision and dryness. Cant wear my contacts and still have bumpy scars across both of my lids! Would never have her touch my eyes again!

Dr. Shiple should not be practicing medicine of any sort.He seemed reluctant to address my vision issues if they in any way deviated from his comfort zone. He failed to follow through with a consultation (with another physician to clarify possibly-connected issues), requiring two phone calls from me and one from the referring optometrist to initiate the first letter of inquiry (he'd stated specifically that it would be written and sent within the next few days. The actual conversation with the physician didn't happen until it was clear that the deflective "let's try this first" debacle -- which the referring optometrist characterized as "counterintuitive" -- failed excruciatingly, and he seemed to mischaracterize that conversation, not knowing that I had previously discussed it with the physician in question.His office visits were interminable, the first over two hours and the second nearly as long; his explanations were both condescending and rote (he gave the same descriptions nearly word for word, based on identical tests performed - and undoubtedly charged for - on both occasions.It was clear to me that he never intended to perform the procedure necessary, and that the second visit was a prime example of patient-milking.I found him contemptible. The other doctors in this practice seem, from these reviews, to be competent. Avoid this one like Covid.

Does not listen to patients' concerns. Fails to recommend different treatments for your eye condition. Has a very defensive demeanor with regard to questions.
