        I was given drops for both eyes and I told the Dr at my first follow up that one eye was really itching. She said since it was just one eye and not two, it was probably an environmental allergen of some kind and not the drops, however it didn’t start until I started the drops. The itching got worse until my eye at the lash line was scabbing, swollen and red. I called to ask if I could be seen because I wanted to have it checked for infection. The front desk girl and she said she would not make me an appointment because that “their policy” that the tech would have to tell them if it was necessary. I asked if I was a current patient and I wanted to be seen why I couldn’t just make an appointment because I wanted the Dr to actually see my eye and not guess over the phone. The tech got on the phone and said my issue wasn’t an emergency and I would just have to wait until she spoke to the Dr because it sounded like an allergic reaction to the drops, even though I told her that I had previously brought it up to the Dr and she didn’t think it was due to the drops. I then said my eye seems infected and I don’t know how she can diagnose me without seeing it. And she again said, well that’s “our policy” and since I’m just “uncomfortable” I would have to wait until they decided if I needed an appointment. Never mind that I am a contact lens wearer and work in an environment where I can’t wear anything on my face (my glasses) and need to make sure I can wear my contacts so an eye infection that’s “uncomfortable” actually affects my work. She didn’t care at all. I told her to take me off their schedule and she just said “ok goodbye!” Their staff is horribly rude, not helpful and seem to have a “gatekeeper” type way about them. I’m sure if the Dr actually heard how I described my eye from me she would’ve thought I should be seen. But sadly she probably will never hear about me. I never received any help and had to find a new Dr.
