Dr. Peter Edward Wilcox

Dr Wilcox will hit/abuse your kids. Went to him when I was a child and he would hit you if you weren’t deciding fast enough when filling your eye prescription resulting in inaccurate prescriptions because your child will answer as quickly as possible even if they can’t see out of the lens just so they don’t get hit by Wilcox and leaving your child traumatized by a grown man putting his hands on them. Wilcox is an abuser and should lose his license. Don’t bring your children here Dr Wilcox will hit/abuse your kids.

I wasn't going to write a review at all, but I feel as if I might be holding back from helping someone in the future by not doing so. Had I read any reviews similar to the one I am about to write prior to my visit with Dr. Peter Wilcox, I assure you, I would not have made the 3 hour one way trip to see him. Dr. Peter Wilcox kept trying different lenses for me, and it kept giving me eye strain. He said he didn't know what to tell me, then later he wrote a prescription for me and told me that I had to "stop asking questions and just try it." I asked him what the prescription was, and he said "Don't worry about it. Just get it. You're not the doctor." By this time I was furious and ended up not going with it because I drove all the way out to see him because due to our phone conversation a few weeks prior, I really thought he cared about my issues and wanted to help. Now fast forward months after seeing him, and finally being referred to a vision eye therapist by one of my old doctors, I finally know what my problem is. As it turns out, I do not need any eye glass prescription at all. My problem is not eye sight. It is a muscle focusing issue that primarily occurs when looking at any technology screen for too long, that only eye vision therapy can correct. This is the reason for getting written multiple different prescriptions and why none of them have worked and why I kept getting eye strain. My Board Certified eye vision therapist was able to thoroughly explain to me what was going on with my vision and now I finally understand. No more guessing games. I have to go to therapy to break down my eye muscles, then rebuild them. It takes time. I can finally say, the eye strain part is gone now that I have taken my glasses off. (Who would have thought?) The blurriness is still here, but that is because I need the therapy. I am currently on a waiting list and will be going through with it soon. So needless to say, don't go to Peter Wilcox with your eye issues. Honestly, you're probably not going to get anywhere with it, especially if it is a case of CVS (computer vision syndrome) like me. I'm sure he is good at what he does, but not at what he isn't actually familiar with. I am not a fan of a doctor who sends out false claims. I wasn't going to write a review at all, but I feel as if I might be holding back from helping someone in the future by not doing so.

Dr. Wilcox was a professional doctor that explained and answered any questions I had in detail. His staff was very friendly and the environment seemed clean and sanitary despite the fact nobody in the office was wearing mask during the global pandemic. Would somewhat recommend ????

Highly recommend.

Dr. Wilcox explained my eye exam well. He thoroughly examined my eyes and assessed my vision changes. He is very professional. His staff is very friendly and my prescription is perfect. I will be returning.

Dr. Wilcox,s office gives the most thorough optic exam I have ever had, and is very professional and caring Dr I have had in all my 67 years with optical doctors.I have had him as my optometrist for over five years and I am very happy and would highly recommend him.

Dr. Wilcox made assumptions about my political opinions after I mentioned that american's aren't as litigious as some people think and that the woman who sued McDonalds in the 90's was only asking for medical bills to be paid, but because McDonalds had had many complants of serving coffee about safe consumption temperatures, the judge awarded her millions. He then proceeded to rant about Alexandria Ocasio Cortez. When I went in, I said I only wanted to either get a contact prescription if my insurance covered it. His staff said it would, however they wound up charging me the excess that the insurance wouldn't cover. Now, this is my fault, as I didn't know exactly what my insurance would cover, but his staff shouldn't have told me it would be covered if it wouldn't As far as my prescription, he was rushing me to pick when going between lenses. I wound up with a prescription that is too weak in one eye. (.5 weaker than my previous prescription.) Dr. Wilcox was seemed frustrated that I was going to buy my contacts from an online vendor. I understand that providing the glasses and contacts are his bread and butter, but if simply doing the exam isn't going to cover his expenses, he should either eat the cost and not let the customer know his frustration or change his pricing model so the exam is more cost effective for the business.

Very professional

I came to Dr. Wilcox because a couple of my friends recommended him, and I'm glad I did! The staff and Dr. Wilcox make you feel welcome and comfortable from the get-go - They made my first ever eye exam a most comfortable experience. They are friendly, very knowledgeable and personable. I was promptly taken at my appointment time (no waiting!), and all my questions were answered during the thorough eye exam. Dr. Wilcox encourages good diet/nutrition because getting the proper nutrients is vital to good eye health. I highly recommend them!

Just didn’t like the wait time today. But it’s rare for me to wait there so that’s ok??

I always enjoy visiting The Wilcox Eye Center! Friendly, courteous and professional staff and Dr Wilcox is always at the forefront of eye care technology. I highly recommend them!

I had sand in my eye - extremely painful. I walked in without an appointment and was a new patient! Dr. Wilcox and his staff worked me in quickly and was able to remove the sand. I was back to work within an hour. Everyone was extremely professional and accommodating. Would highly recommend Dr. Wilcox and crew - actually scheduled my yearly check up for next week.

Dr Wilcox is very knowledgeable and his eye procedures are to the most present day he has helped me tremendously in my eye care

Dr. Wilcox is a warmhearted and kind person. He cares about the whole person. I will never go anywhere else.

Waited over 40 minutes after our appointment and then left. I had to call from my cell phone from inside the office in order to get anyones attention.
