Not Very Helpful or Organized

by tech2talk

New to Demers I wanted to have my entire family at the same doctors so made an appointment for 4 of us to get eye exams. The exams went fine but when we went to pick frames the experience left a lot to be desired.

Picked out frames got measured and picked out additional features. When it came time to order the frames I was told I'd have to pay the balance before they would place the order. This is the first time this has happened, I've always paid the balance when I picked up the glasses. So I told him I'd pay the balance at the end of the month.

Came back at the end of the month and I had purchased frames online instead of purchasing from them. There frames were way over priced!! First of all they couldn't find my order on their computer or on paper. I know an order had been written up because I was watching him write it on the previous visit. I thought the price I owed would be $240 less, because I had purchased the frames online but no it was $150 more. This was explained away that he must not have understood the insurance.

Needless to say I won't be going back.

same old good stuff

by renooner

I've been going to this place since 1980 and yes we all miss the Senior Demers but his grandson and his wife are doing a great job and I will continue to go there even though my insurance doesn't cover them because I choose to do my business there.

Great friendly and caring staff...

by KarenW2002

I was referred to the DeMers' by a close friend and I was glad that I went! The doctor gave me a thorough exam and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be going back next year.

• Pros: Thorough exam, inexpensive, fun.
• Cons: Bad parking. Perhaps a better location?

Unable to hold the good reputation built from the past doctors, old management and employees that made you feel special and cared for.

New ownership took over and has brought the practice down hill. Unable to hold the good reputation built from the past doctors, old management and employees that made you feel special and cared for. To bad the past practice is a thing of the past of caring 110% for the patients is no longer. Money is the only thing on the new owners mind and not patient care. Morals needs to be learned by the new owners, but very unlikely. My family and friends were past patient of the "ORIGANAL" practice for over 30 wonderful years with no problems. Sad lost for the Sparks/Reno area when the old practice left. VERY SAD

• Pros: Nice frames but price to high, if you shop around you will understand.
• Cons: No morals, no wonder the original staff left.
