So I got a text my glasses were in for pickup. I was near the mall so I ran in to grab my glasses and get on with my day. When I walked up to the store, there was a wait. There was an elderly couple, a lady, and a hipster looking guy. I stood and waited for approximately 15 minutes before writing this review. The couple waited about 10 minutes of the time I was here and then said, “forget it let’s go somewhere else.” They left. Then the hipster guy took their chair. He sat there for probably a good 5 minutes before anyone working in the store looked up and acknowledged him. They had his glasses ready. One of the employees waved him over and handed him his glasses out of the drawer. The lady and I stood and waited still. We are still waiting at the time of this writing. A nearly 25 minute wait just to pick up a pair of glasses and not need to speak to doctor or tech is ridiculous.
They were absolutely amazing with me and my five year old! Dr. Cassidy went above and beyond to make sure my prescription was right and to make sure contacts were comfortable. All the girls up front were so kind!
Considering I was late for my appointment, and all techs were with clients, as soon as someone became available they still took me. Very nice people, all of them!! It was my first eye exam, EVER!! And Im 51!! I was helped with my frame choices, told what was covered and what wasnt. Very delightful experience!! Definitely recommend EVERYONE TO GO SEE DR. TAVEL AND CREW!!
Nice clear, no pressure atmosphere. The staff were friendly and even got me in 20 min early. They allowed me too browse around at their great selection without trying too get me to buy the most expensive pair of glasses they sold. Overall I was very satisfied!
When I first arrived for my appointment it wasnt really what I thought it was going to be for an optometrist office. I was about 15 minutes early for my appointment and it was completely crowded where at every station one of the assistants was helping another customer. I had to wait a little longer than expected but after my name was called everything went in a pretty fast progression. I got my eyes checked, picked out frames, and scheduled everything to be picked up when ready at an affordable price! so to say that I was pleasantly surprised by an Optometrist office that was right inside the mall is an understatement! I would recommend Dr. Tavel to anyone needing an Optometrist.
Everyone I met was pleasant and very helpful. The doc took the time to explain things to me and made me feel comfortable. I really felt like everyone was there to help me get glasses.
The Dr here is fantastic, and very thorough. She’s also great at keeping the whole place moving along smoothly even though it was a busy time of the day and I had to be seen more than once, which was entirely my fault, I put one of my contacts in inside out. The staff was very thoughtful and attentive and listened to me when I explained why I needed new glasses even though my prescription hadn’t changed and I was there for contacts. And even though I had gotten my current pair of glasses from a competitor, they did what they could to make them work for me while I wait for my new contacts; and worked to get me the best deal in order to add a pair of glasses that better fit what I need.
Absolutely the best staff I have ever met. I actually very much enjoy our time spent there. The Optometrist Dawn has the best sense of humor and is some that keeps you laughing through the process. A++ crew.
Dr. Dawn is amazing. Really impressed by her knowledge and friendliness. As a fellow female healthcare provider, I can recommend her with utmost confidence.
I highly recommend this place. I havent experienced a more thorough physician than Dr Cassidy. She is absolutely wonderful. Very thorough, wonderful with patients and even staff interactions. I referred my own mom to her. I wont be going anywhere but her from now on. She even showed me ways to easily adjust to progressive lenses since these are my first pair.
They always have great staff, very satisfied with every visit. The eye doctor was really great. Always have great service!!
I have diabetes which can cause eye problems. I thought my exam was very thorough! The staff was helpful and friendly.
Dr. Tavel is very friendly environment!Very welcoming and helpful. I highly recommend you try them out!
Dr. Tavel is wonderful with children, very knowledgeable and caring. She’s was made to do what she does! Very pleased with our visit. If you’re looking for a great eye doctor, dr. Tavel and staff are the way to go!
Theres enough employees to get you right in and get the ball rolling. Everyone seems to know what they are doing and Dr. Cassidy sure knows her stuff. She has helped me more in the past three years than all the other eye doctors put together. THANKS!.
Staff was so nice and helpful! Dr.Dawn was very informative and kind, helping me get EXACTLY the prescription I need.Thankful for the help to get rid of blurry vision and headaches. 🙌🏻
The staff was exceptionally friendly & helpful .Dr Dawn is very thorough & takes the time to explain everything while keeping the wait time to a minimum for people waiting to be seen, very efficient ..Highly recommended
The service was great, even with COVID restrictions. I had no wait time. The doctor was very friendly and gave a lot of information. I love the fact that my progressive lenses were not going to cost too much and that both the Dr. and the staff went over the proper way to use them. I am on the Healthy Indiana Plan and the selection of frames covered by HIP was very good. I walked out with an order for glasses, the exam, progressive, ad transition lenses for just a little over $100 out of pocket. This is definitely my optometrist from now on!!!!
Dr. Cassady is always a wealth of knowledge when it comes to your eyes. She always points out when coupons are available. She is a genuinely caring provider.
I was very pleased with all aspects of my experience with the staff and Optometrist at Dr. Tavel in the Markland Mall!
I was awesome my eye exam was thorough and they were very helpful helping me pick my glasses out
Dr. Cassidy and her staff are incredibly friendly and helpful all the way around. They have a good system for getting you in and out. The are very efficient without making you feel rushed or like youre missing something. Dr. Cassidy herself is very knowledgeable, and knows how to explain complex things simply so her patients can understand. Thank you all, keep up the great work!
Everyone was unbelievably nice, efficient, and gave me all the information I needed to know while I was there! The doctor was very knowledgeable, easy to talk to, very good at her job. I will be coming back to Dr.Tavel in Kokomo any time I need eye care/new glasses!
The staff was amazing and very informative! I highly recommend this establishment.
The nicest staff I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I’ve already told my family to switch to Dr. Tavel.
Thorough eye exam and extremely friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable staff!
Everyone at Dr Tavel is so friendly and welcoming! Customer service is spot on and the doctor is very personable!
The entire staff was very friendly and professional. They were very helpful in assisting me in the exam, picking out of glasses as well as answering any and all questions that I had. They were having computer problems when I was there, however, that did not stop them from doing their jobs. Hats off to the entire staff there in Kokomo, IN. I would recommend them to anyone that needed that type of care.
The doctor and staff was by far the friendliest and most helpful I have ever dealt with. I have finally found the one my family and I will continue to go to. We were all very comfortable and confident our exams were done right.
Great customer service, friendly team, knowledgable and helpful doctor.
Fast Friendly Service! They listen to what I wanted on my glasses unlike the place I went to last year !
Pleasant and knowledgeable staff. Great optometrist. Comfortable atmosphere. Great experience all around.
Great place great dr great people
Was a great first time visit. Was well taken care of. Thank you.
Myself and both my special needs kiddos went and each time they were great!!!
Absolutely the best service and eye doctor I have ever had. I highly recommend.
They are very courteous and very nice people. They also get you in and out very quickly. No long wait times.
I loved how friendly everyone was and through. They paid attention to the details of my eyes and how to help them . Felt very at home ☺️
I love going there.there nice to me.an I get my eyes done very good. Ty so much.
Dr. Cassidy and the girls are friendly and helpful. They listen and answer your questions! A+++++
Always helpful and fast service never see a non happy face id say smile but well masks lol all the ladies that work there are just awesome keep it up
The staff was so amazing and helpful, I’ve truly never had such a good experience at an eye dr.
This place very professional and work help you what’s going, explains every detail.
They treat you like a friend.
I went there for well check and prescription for glasses. The staff is nice and work quick. At the end I had to ask to get the prescription, which is without pupil distance for glasses. I was assuming to shop for prices online and at other stores. To get this they asked me to pay additionally $15. I am very disappointed from this company.
Great staff, friendly, knowledgeable doctor, and great prices!
Very nice staff,great selection of frames. Affordable.
Super friendly, informative and very clean! Great prices for exams and products as well.
I’ve been to Dr Tavel before and always had great and fast service. This time was by far even better!!! The Medicaid approved hardware selection is nearly an entire display case!!! That’s 100+ options, a lot of options when compared to other companies that only offer 57-75-90. The staff was a great group of people who listened and were patient. My glasses came in just in the knick of time! Walked in, made sure no adjustments were needed, left!!! That’s easy. I’ll recommend folk go to Dr Tavel anytime I hear someone talking about getting eye exams, new glasses or needing contacts. Great prices, they accept many insurance companies and the staff are kind. Plus! Who doesn’t like walking a mall after getting their new glasses?! A great way to adjust if the prescriptions have changed. 😁
Very great customer service and a excellent collection of Eyewear to pick from.
This is an amazing place to go the staff and the doctor is awesome
Ive always had great service at Dr. Tavel. They also have awesome deals!
The staff are great and Dr Kirby is so patient, kind and thorough!
Kind, friendly, and courteous.
Great all the way around everytime I go here
Super Friendly People and very informative
Fantastic and efficient eye care
Great prices and employees work with you for best deals
I was amazed at the low cost on the glasses I purchased for my granddaughter! This day in age with kids and they are growing so fast it’s a relief to know we have a place to go to to buy her glasses at a very affordable rate!! I was so impressed I’m planning on coming back and getting myself a pair!!
The exam was good and the associates and Doctor were very friendly. She took time to explain everything and answer all my questions. Good job. 5 stars if there was live music.
They are very nice and make you feel welcome. My little boy is 7 years old and was nervous at first after his appointment he was excited to get his glasses. Thank you for making my son feel comfortable.
Very kind staff doesnt matter what insurance you have made my girls feel good. Goodselection of frames, could have a few more. I highly recommend Thank you Ladies for being so kind to my girls
Great people
I really enjoy having my eye doctor appointment every year. The staff is always friendly & it’s always a smooth visit. Big thumbs up!
My experience with Tavel was again... remarkable. Very accurate as normal. Friendly staff. Dr. Cassidy was very professional while making you feel comfortable.
The most thorough ophthalmologist Ive ever seen. Best in town easily worth every penny. The Doctor actually cares about you and your vision.
They definitely took their time unlike Walmart. They shown me they cared about my eyes and wanted to help me. Thanks guys, Im really excited to get my new glasses.
The doctor is very strict about wearing a mask, but i didnt mind because she was so attractive.
The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable! I was greeted promptly, and taken great care of. Dr. Cassidy is amazing! I would recommend 100/10 to choose Dr. Tavel if you need eye exams done!
Katie is always great as are the other girls! Weve never had such a more thorough eye Dr ever. The lab made an error when producing my husbands most recent lens and made them transitional rather than not and Katie was very helpful and is going to get it all taken of and letting him keep his current lenses until the correct ones come in, which should only be a couple days!
This was an awesome experience. I highly recommend Dr. Tavels office. Its very professional and friendly. I actually feel confident in the doctors exam. She was extremely thorough and informative.
The staff are amazing! My five year old loves going there, they are so helpful, and made the whole experience enjoyable for him. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing glasses.
Very friendly staff, the Doctor is very attentive. The location is great! Prices may not be the greatest, but the service is!
The Dr checked everything and was gentle and patient! I have no complaints! Joyce
Thanks for the great experience! My son really enjoyed the awesome work yall did for him! He is excited to get his glasses in 2 weeks ✌️It was suppose to be a 5 🌟 but I mustve hit the 4 🌟 on accident. Lol yall did great 👐My husband and I will be back next yr to get glasses thru yall 💯 thanks again for the awesome experience for my son. We will be back with our other kids soon.My son got his glasses the other day and he is rocking them both 😎
I love this place. My wife loves this place and so do our kids. They are wonderful and they are so knowledgeable!
Everyone was very friendly, and despite being quite busy, Dr. Cassidy gave both of my children great personal care and we all left very satisfied!
Would give it no stars if i could. Bad experience with 2 separate interactions. Trash place.
Great place and staff. They do great with my kids every time
The doctor took her time, explained everything in detail and was very thorough. I definitely recommend Tavel!
First visit was absolutely the best. We were very pleased. We came from an eye Dr that had messed up my contacts and my sons glasses and they fixed us right up, by correcting the mistakes from the previous eye Dr. Would highly recommend them at Dr. Tavels.
I didn’t buy my glasses here, but was in the mall and had a question about how my glasses weren’t fitting right. The staff here is courteous and professional. They adjusted my glasses and now I have perfectly fitting glasses. Too bad they aren’t allowed to accept tips.
James & The Girls are absolutely amazing! Best eye doctor you can have resides at Dr Tavel’s Eye Care!!! Ever need ANYTHING related to eyes, head in there!!!
Great experience from the time I walked in until the time I picked up my contacts, which I received quicker than i expected. Would highly recommend!
Super friendly and quick. They even helped me pick out frames in my price range and made sure they were cute :) I will definitely be using Dr.Tavel for all my eyeball needs ;)
Dr Tavel is a wonderful place to get your eyewear! Great prices and service!
My family and I have been going here for years. Love the staff they know us by name. Lol They always seem genuinely happy to see us. Love the hours and how they will work with your schedule. Awesome experience every time.
Dawn Cassidy is amazing. They all take time to care for your needs.
Everyone I interacted with was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. They have a variety of frames and lens choices. Dr. Cassidy listened to me when I explained some visual problems Ive experienced since my last visit, and diagnosed the problem perfectly. For the first time since I was 40 (Im 58 now), I can read well with my bifocals and at a distance. Before this new pair, I had to take my glasses off to read or do close up work and put them back on to see at a distance. I used to think of Dr. Travel as a choice for eyewear, but now they are my choice for eye health.
Dr. Dawn Cassidy is AWESOME, she found some problems that other optometrists never mentioned, then made corrective arrangements with Indiana Eye Institute and home care, followed up with after care. She really gets involved to get results. I thank her, Tavell staff and all involved.
Everyone is nice and friendly. Dr Cassidy is the best around, wont go any where else.
Great experience with excellent eye exam and professional support in picking out new frames. Thank you.
Great friendly staff! The doctor is wonderful and takes her time with you. The new store looks great!
Love this store wouldnt go any where else! The staff is so friendly!
As a family, we have trusted Dr. Tavel with all of our eye exams, glasses and contacts for close to 20 years. Our eyewear is ready for pick up when promised, and they are always ready to do any repairs or adjustments as needed.
One star is being super generous. This place finds every way to get your money. They will keep making you pay for exams that you were told werent needed. They will schedule you to come back then last minute tack on more fees. They will tell you one price then turn around and say they never said that was what it was going to be. I would absolutely NOT recommend this place. They accept medicade and only care about money. They do not care about their patients at all. The worse treatment that I have ever had in my life.. The front staff was always super rude every time I was in there.
Great team here, they were patient with my 5 year old, all very friendly and courteous.
