Mr. Jeffrey Camp

Easy to schedule. Competent efficient front desk staff. Nice environs. Assistant Jenna was excellent. Dr. Camp took the time to make sure I understood what I needed to. State of the art equipment that far surpasses other offices I've been in. Even decided to order new glasses there as associated staff also very proficient.

Interpersonal score 2 out of 10. NO real eye contact. I couldn't even create a conversation. I must have been invisible. Seemed the eye exam was a setup for more services.

Aside from seemingly discontented and not very personable interaction from this doctor, I also expressed that Ive have uncomfortably dry/irritated eyes for years and have been using artificial tears, which also do not seem to help. He took my $100 copay, and told me to get artificial tears. Thanks a lot! Biggest waste of time and money. I learned more about how to care for my eyes on youtube.com via eyelid massage, etc. He also did a CO2 laser treatment on me years ago. It was horrifying with zero benefit; more so skin-damaging in the long term. I do not recommend. The 1-star is for the very helpful and kind nurse that I saw prior to Dr. Camp.

Just want to say that a lot of the reviews are not related to Dr. Camps’ service, but that of previous (now gone) eyeglass specialists. One has nothing to do with the other. He is a great doctor.

I had a great experience with Dr. Camp here in Truckee. I'm just up for a vacation but had a little concern about some eye irritation and his staff was amazing. They fit me into his schedule, and he was excellent. Being from out of town I was a little concerned trying to find an ophthalmologist in Truckee that I did not know. As a surgeon myself I can be tough on all but the best doctors and I really felt he was very thorough, very knowledgable, and a pleasure to work with.

Outstanding doctor, staff is highly trained and more competent than any other I have experienced and the onsite optician is definitely more interested in meeting your personal needs than selling you overpriced designer frames. Highly recommend!

Dr. Camp and staff are awesome! After my eye examination, Dr. Camp answered all of my questions and concerns regarding an eye procedure. He is a very experienced ophthalmologist and surgeon and I have the utmost confidence and faith in his abilities to successfully perform the eye procedure. Additionally, it helps to be prepared with questions prior to an office appointment with Dr. Camp to fully understand the scope and range of eye problem and issues and possible solutions Dr. Camp has to offer.

I am very particular with my eyesight and choosey about who I go to for vision care. I had laser surgery in the past from a renowned teaching hospital and I loved it for many years (I have since moved and it is not convenient). Age and time caught up with me and it was time to visit an eye doctor. During my research of eye doctors in the Reno area I came upon Dr. Camp in Truckee. I called. Kim was able to schedule me a very convenient appointment (a very quick 30-minute drive from Reno) and I went. I could not have been happier with the care that I received from Dr. Camp and his staff. He determined that I needed cataract surgery in both eyes. He went above and beyond to research the very best option for my lenses. He even contacted the rep to see if I was a candidate for brand new lenses that was not yet widely available. I was, and I am surprised at the clarity and colors I can now see. Dr. Camp was terrific at explaining everything to me before, during, and provided excellent aftercare. It is apparent that he truly cares about his patients and his primary role as a caregiver, not just making money. His unique, and “dry” sense of humor was also refreshing. I give Dr. Camp, Kim, and the rest of the staff a perfect "10” and my highest recommendation possible. I am very particular with my eyesight and choosey about who I go to for vision care.

I left this visit mid-exam as there were multiple unacceptable problems. The exam room was dirty, the sink filthy and right water faucet unusable due the the computer screen blocking it. Dust on equipment, surfaces, debris and dust bunnies on the floor. Dr Camp did not wash his hands or use gloves when he examined me, touching my face and lower eyelids while administering eye drops, which is unacceptable in medical practice. He was vague, disorganized, and a poor communicator. His bedside manner is not good. He told me I “might” be able to drive after being dilated, this is something I should have been informed of when I made the appointment so I could make plans for a ride home in case I couldn’t drive myself. After dilating my eyes, he said he’d be back in 15-20 minutes, but an hour and a half passed (without any communication from him or staff) before I decided I had no confidence in him and his care, so I left. I will be filing a complaint with the state.

He's more into Dermatoly stuff than eyes, left for lunch before he finished my entire visit, and has no operating privileges at Tahoe Forest Hospital. The staff was more into the cosmetic stuff. I need eye surgery and he's not doing it.

I was able to get an appointment scheduled right away. They offered me a generous discount since I don't have insurance. Dr. Camp's assistant went through all the images of my retina, eye pressure, and basic vision test. Dr. Camp then came in was very thorough in answering my questions, then did a complete eye exam and was able to correct my vision to 20/20. They have a great selection of eyewear and I was able to get a very light durable frame with top quality lenses, as well as Oakley sunglasses with custom corrective lenses, and even some corrective inserts for my ski, and motocross goggles. Of course without insurance I received 20% off my first pair, 40% off my Oakley's and the inserts were over 50% off all with warranty for 2 years for any kind of problem including scratches. Dr. Camp and his assistant's are very friendly and pleasant to deal with and there willingness to do what you need or get you what you want is just awesome.

At every step during the process to get an exam, prescription glasses and financials, there were major mistakes. Physical exam twice, wrong prescription, had to send glasses back to the lab. They ran my payment check twice, it had cleared (had to deal with my bank) and then had a bunch of attitude accusing me of NSF for their mistake or was it a mistake to run the check 20 days later. I will not trust my eye care to this practice. At every step during the process to get an exam, prescription glasses and financials, there were major mistakes.

This guy is the worst. I ordered glasses and heard nothing, when I went back to check on them the lady told me they had to fire the last person who did that job and she’d have to check. super unprofessional to tell me that and I don’t care anyway. Got a refund and will never return.

Doctor came into room and never introduced himself or addressed me by name. He never acknowledged any information I offered during the exam, nor did he explain any part of the procedure or results.

I’ve been going to eye doctors my whole life like many of you I’m sure... and this place is terrible, worst eye doctor I’ve ever been too.!!! After this last apt. I will never go back. Appon arrival and sign in to my second apt, no further information was taken on me. I had to ask to fill out paper work once i was in the exam chair as I knew my number, address and insurance had changed and wasn’t sure what I was getting done that day, as nobody talked to me to inform me of anything happening that day just a chaotic mess. I then had to figure out what exactly i was getting and paying for that day and after getting the information correct in the exam chair it was nothing major, I just needed a exam and images for new contacts prescription. I’ll pay out of pocket and save money for stuff like this no problem, but you better give me at least a glimpse that you care about my eye health and know what’s going on! Dr Camp comes in and im guessing because I’m 30yrs old and had to ask about cost and what I was getting done that day, I’m not sure what his angle was but he then assumes I’m not working because I’m at a 10am apt on a Tuesday so I get to hear about how he works so hard, so busy non stop and isn’t staying home surfing the web all day like us young generation. It was one of those moments where I couldn’t exactly figure out why he was being so rude and sarcastic, but I was at a loss for words, he doesn’t introduce himself or acknowledge you when he comes in the room. Again he knows absolutely nothing about me, I just started my own business and have never been working so hard to get ahead in my life so for me to hear all this was very comical and hard not to erupt on him specially coming from a man who seems half asleep and can’t even hold a conversation with me. Mind you the whole time I’m also thinking, for not being busy this place is a mess and Dr Camp sucks at being an eye doctor, at least from what I’ve experienced at other doctors. I’ve always felt comfortable, welcome and got answers and talked about my eyes at these places but after this second visit with Dr Camp, I would drive hours wherever to avoid him, i truely believe if I did have something wrong with my eyes beyond corrective vision he would not catch or see it, I do no trust him at all with my eye health Dr Camp does an excellent job of being a absolutely terrible eye doctor. He seems half asleep, mumbles through everything and he doesn’t explain anything about your eye health, he’ll take your questions as if your and idiot, he’s sarcastic and uncomfortable to be around. ENJOY! I’ve been going to eye doctors my whole life like many of you I’m sure... and this place is terrible, worst eye doctor I’ve ever been too.!!! … More

Of my handful of visits, the staff has been friendly and polite, however, there seems to be a major lack of organization going on here. On my last visit to pay a bill and pick up contacts (I was called regarding them being there and it took a few weeks for me to make it in), I walked in the office to 3 people behind the desk who greeted me promptly, as they weren't helping any other patients. They seemed to be chatting about non-work related things, so when they told me I had to wait for someone on the glasses fitting side to be available (again, just to pull my order and swipe my card) I was a bit disappointed. I waited for about 15 minutes while one of the staff was fitting a patient with frames, and 2 other staff members were shuffling through a rather unsightly stack of inventory? Honestly it was pretty unprofessional but I wrote it off and continued to wait. Finally someone came to help me, only to say that they didn't have my contacts. I paid my bill and had to return to get the contacts later. There's a lot of room for improvement at this office, but until then, I won't be back. With number of seemingly idle bodies and the very apparent disorganization I encountered, I've decided to find another optometrist.

What a great doctor.

I don't understand why there negative reviews. Dr Camp is an Expert in his field and gives great customer service. I saw him today for dry eyes and was pleased with the whole experience. I highly recommend going and seeing him for eye problems.

Great doctor and incredibly knowledeable! The staff was super friendly and helpful for picking out your glasses! Not to mention, there technology is advanced and accurate. Highly recommend getting your eyes examined here ????????????

had a great experience with Dr. Camp and staff, however, Optical department lacks in timeliness and communication when purchasing glasses.

We Dr Camp for Opthamology as well as for skin care on the Sierra Aesthetics side of the practice. Everyone in the office is kind and professional. The Dr is extremely well qualified and informative on all fronts. His manner is pleasant with children and adults alike. Highly recommend Dr Camp.

Horrible experience. Dr. Camp and his staff are terrible. I went in with double vision. He ordered an MRI (which cost me $2K out of pocket). Took over a week to get him to call with results. He said nothing was wrong. He suggested it could go away in 6-8 weeks. And if not? It could be 6-9 months. What should I do in the interim? Nothing. So essentially he gave no medical advice. And I still have double vision. His staff doesn't seem to have any idea what is going on with anything.

Go here, it is full of charming helpful ladies & a terrfic doctor. After being treated by them I have 20/15 vision. That is better than 20/20. They have a huge selection of frames to choose from. After 60 yrs. of wearing glasses & going to eye Dr.s this is the best establishment i have been to. Go here with complete confidence. They will take good care of you.

Dr. Camp is an accomplished and concerned professional with a skill set that most doctors would envy. I give him five stars across the board in every category. He saved my eye ten years ago. Since that time he has performed two operations on my eye's with excellent results. He's a bit shy but has a great sense of humor once you get to know him. He's overworked and has a hard time saying no primarily because of his popularity in the community. I highly recommend Dr. Camp.

Dr. Camp is a very talented doctor with exceptional knowledge of the eye. After seeing several docs in Reno and North Lake I went to Dr. Camp and he bumps and irritation with my eyes is gone! No more chronic itchiness and pain - I see clearly and for the first time in a long time, I am comfortable! THANK YOU! I also didn't have any issues with his office staff as some said - I think he must have worked through his staff challenges because I got in easily and only waited about 10 minutes.

Avoid anything that isn't DIRECTLY related to eyes. He tries to sell you on his lasers & it's a big scam. He is unqualified in using them. I went to him for a laser & it was the biggest regret of my life.

I think he's a great doctor. In the past I've seen two different ophthalmologist while living in the Bay Area and he by far was much more thorough.

Office staff doesn't know what's going on with their patients. They charged me for something that wasn't performed. I had to wait for my yearly eye exam for over 90 min and saw the dr. for 5 min. Make the drive to Reno and see someone there, save yourself frustration at Dr. Camps. I have been in Truckee over 25 years and always say I will never go back and do because of no eye dr choices here. But this last time was it. Never again will I go there.
