Great optometry office. Dr. Guerkink is so thoughtful and experienced, and always makes sure my thoughts and questions are answered. The front desk and technicians are also very kind and helpful. Really nice modern, upkept place.

In the midst of a contact lens emergency, I was franticly calling around Norman, Moore and Oklahoma City trying to find an eye doctor's office that carries my lens prescription. I am as blind as a bat and the contact prescription is so high that it is not commonly carried by most eye clinics. Oftentimes my lenses need to be special ordered. So if I'm traveling out of town and happen to lose or tear a lens, then lose or tear my backup lens - I typically find myself in big trouble. Fortunately, I called Norman Eye Associates and they saved the day. I explained my situation and the very friendly and helpful receptionist told me that she could check and see if they carried my lenses. It turned out they did. She told me she'd have the lenses waiting for me up front. Coincidentally, their office was within walking distance from where I was staying. I guess I never noticed it because I never needed an eye doctor in Norman before. When I got to the office, they knew it was me right away. I was prepared to pay for the lenses but was told these were samples they had in stock so there would be no charge. I was pretty surprised about that and was very impressed with how helpful and friendly they were with me. It had been almost 3 years since I last had an eye exam so I decided I'd make an appointment and get one since their service had been nothing short of stellar. I'm accustomed to making my eye appointments a few weeks in advance, so I was happy to hear that they could see me, a new patient, as soon as the very next day. The fees for the exam were very reasonable. I believe it came out to cost around $80. I don't have insurance coverage for optical appointments, and I pay out of pocket. Some eye doctors hesitate to take uninsured patients, but this place had no problem with that and got me in much quicker than I expected. The next day I arrived for my appointment and was seen right on time. There was no waiting and the staff was very organized and on point with getting patients in and out. The doctor was warm and personable and he seemed like he genuinely cared about seeing me and addressing all my questions. He suggested two different lenses to try and provided me with samples of both. After a week or so of trying them both I placed an order. My lenses arrived within the week which is much sooner than I usually wait for my contacts to arrive. They called me the day they arrived and pick up went smoothly. I like my new lenses and I can't say enough great things about this eye clinic. It is a top notch place with lovely people and I highly recommend it to anyone in need of contacts or glasses.
