Most incompetent assistant at Santa Monica branch
The Santa Monica branch messed up my contact lens prescription. I have had the same contact lenses for 8 years. I was very happy with them. I told the doctor not to change them. She asked if I had any complaints with my current prescription and I repeatedly said no. But she told me a slight tweak would make them more comfortable. They didn't - it was hell. I even had the foresight to push back on her recommendation and she told me just to roll my eyes if that happens. Didn't work. Now I can't see in one eye if I wear contacts and I have to wear them in my line of work. One of them is really uncomfortable after they adjusted the prescription. All of this is forgiveable - at least in my mind. But that was not the worst part. We spoke with Annie and zero accountability. Just a robot line of how they have to book you in again and I'd have to wait a week (and then even more to get the new contact lenses resent). Keep in mind, I can't see in one eye when I'm at work. Complete incompetence in working towards finding a solution. Absolutely not cut out for customer service. After an hour on the phone trying to sort it out with her, she told us that if I sent over my old prescription to confirm it was such a tiny change, she would hand it to the doctor and they would sort it out pronto. This was an agreement we reached after an hour of her pushing back and not actually using her initiative in the situation. We thanked her and trusted that she would follow through. And she completely dropped the ball. Nothing. What a time waster. And she had the nerve to tell me "don't worry we won't charge you for coming back in again". She is completely incompetent. Worst experience ever. Do not go to this branch.
