Came here about 10 years ago and thought the service was decent so decided to recommend relatives to come here. Things surely have changed since then. The place is always packed which is an indication they're in demand, but I feel the staff's attitude is very indifferent and not friendly...especially the front of the house check-in/receptionists area. They appear overwhelmed and not ready to handle simple requests from their clients. My relative who had surgery here said they never called her back about her post surgery visit because she owed $10 on her account and there was nothing they could

I called this place to schedule an eye exam. I was put on hold for 12 minutes and finally hung up and called back. I was put on hold again for 2 minutes. After telling the person who finally answered that I needed an exam for contacts I was told it would take 4 weeks. Then I was asked my name, address and phone number which I gave. Then I was asked my area code. I live 3 miles away, why would I be asked my area code. Do they think Metairie and Kenner have different area codes? If my area code was different I would have given it with the phone number. Poor service!

Made an appointment weeks ago to see one of the doctors this afternoon. Learned this morning that Eyecare Associates cancelled it. Apparently, the doctor called it a day after a mid-morning appointment. They said we were left a message. We were not. No message. No explanation offered. No apology extended. They asked a question, though. "Would you like to reschedule?" Shameful. Stay far away.

I have been going to the Eyecare Associates for several years. Dr Cerise is my doctor and I have been very happy with his care and work. He did Lasix surgery on me then 2 cataracts surgeries all with excellent results.
Yesterday, Ms Alma did my preliminary eye tests and dilations. She was very delightful while explaining every step in each procedure. She even apologized that something may sting for a second and for the bright lights when the eye pictures where taken. That was very nice and made a rainy day sunny.

There are parts of this practice that are 5-star and parts that are 1-star. I had been coming here for years and have moved and all along have been stalling on this review. On one hand, I really like Rhonda in the contact lens department and appreciate the professionalism of Kevin Kasovich but on the other I absolutely detest the administrative staff on the phones.
Dr Kasovich is a lot over the top. Too thorough if it's possible. After awhile I asked that we just go through the full dilation and testing procedures of 3 hours once a year. We struck a deal and 6 months later he tried

I have been coming to this practice for 30 years and have always had the utmost confidence in all the doctors who have cared for me and my family. When my follow-up appointment for a condition I was treated for had to be postponed, and postponed a second time, Dr K was available to discuss my recovery and answer questions. We finally evolved to a telemedicine conference which I found most satisfactory. Once the office was able to open, I was called in and was very satisfied with the staff and the treatment I received. Though there is sometimes longer wait than I’d like, I overlook it because

Eyecare associates staff has always been extremely helpful and easy to work with. I have been a patient for over 25 years and will always be a patient of theirs.
I would like to say thank you to everyone that helped me yesterday with my eye emergency. I would not have made it to my vacation today without everyones help.
A special thank you to the lady in the scheduling department that helped me get a last minute appointment, I know I was a bit emotional and dramatic and I appreciate you squeezing me in.
On a side note.. my eye is already feeling a lot better.

I have always been treated professionally and with great care. Staff is very friendly and very informative about any concerns that I may have. I have referred friends and family members and they have felt the same. I have been taken care of byDr Landry, Dr Sumich and currently I am seeing Dr Kasovich. All are experts in their field.

After having been to my previous eye doctor for many years, I wanted to try someone new. The woman at the front desk was not very helpful, but all the other staff I encountered was great! The woman (can't remember her name) who saw me first was very thorough, informative, and was able to answer all my questions. I really liked Dr. Kasovich too - very friendly and professional. He spent the time explaining things to me and I felt like he really cared about trying to help me. The only complaint I have is that I was there for 3 hours! I understand it was busy but to me that's a bit ridiculous

I have never been disappointed in my visits to Dr. Kasovich, but this morning's visit was beyond thorough! In a world full of 15-minute turn and burn doctor visits, his office and he himself put so much personalized care into my visit. You could not ask for a friendlier staff or a more dedicated medical professional. The optometrist that saw me first was so sweet and gave reasons for every action, she was extremely helpful and explained every step of the process! Dr. Kasovich was attentive and his care was personable and extremely attentive. He even made an outside call to a specialist in

I was referred to Dr. Leni Sumich, for my cataracts and blurred vision by Dr. Leach of St.Charles Vision. I had never seen Dr. Sumich before, although I had been to EyeCare Associates several years ago. The office and surroundings are much more calmer and organized. The young woman processing every one in was very proficient in her work. She greeted everyone kindly, professionally and patiently.
I was registered, and called in 20-30 minutes. My nurse was Terrie, she was the most kindest, patient, competent, experienced nurse that I've experienced in a long time. All my test were in sync

I have been seeing Dr. Stumpf since 1992. It's when I started wearing contacts. I have the utmost respect for this group as they are always professional and caring with your concerns and eyecare you receive.
My husband sees Dr. Landry as he can't wear contacts and has worn glasses since he was a teenager. That's when he had a eye ingury. Four years ago Dr. Landry performed cataract surgery and instead of three pairs of glasses he now wears only reading glasses. His distance was completely restored and only wears sunglasses to drive. I recommend this Eyecare Associates group for
