I visited this office because it was listed on my insurance provider's website as one of the optometrists that accepts my insurance (Davis Vision). Unfortunately, my experience was not a very pleasant one. The equipment used for the exam was antiquated and did not include the more recent retina exam or specular microscopy. Dr. Cothran seemed to think I was lying to him when I told him that I had difficulty focusing with the trial contact lens he asked me to try on. It was a lower prescription than what I had been previously wearing, but finally agree to change the prescription. At checkout, I was being overcharged $88 because of what the staff claimed to be a ""premium"" fitting. I had them call the insurance and got it sorted out and only paid the $20 co-pay that my insurance required. Needless to say, I won't be going back to this place. The doctor and staff seem more interested in selling me overpriced glasses and contacts than in the well being of my vision. There are much better optometrists out there. Next year I am going back to my previous doctor (who was excellent by the way) even though he is out of network.
