Finch Avenue Optometry & Low Vision Centre

Outstanding experience.Free customer parking by the building.Very nice building.Secure form provided to submit client information when booking an appointment.At the building I had a feeling like being at some pricey clinic. Even washroom looks fancy there.They have fancy machines for getting information about your eyes. It is not your Walmart eye clinic corner. Such tests are done by some of the stuff members.And best experience of the visit at the Finch Avenue Optometry was meeting with OD George Papadakis who is not just very nice human being, but he loves his job and he is outstanding at it. He spent bit of time with me talking about state of my eyes with different angles. Dr. Papadakis looks at his patients with care and frequently notices early problems even not directly related to eyes. He knows his high tech. machines and related software very well. But he also likes to use traditional equipment to confirm a story he creates about you when you come to his office. Even I tried very hard, I would not be able to find anything not great about speaking with Dr. George. He had all the patience to answer all my questions the way I could understand. Plus he shared extra information about care for eyes.Only problem I would see, was that Dr. George set medical professional standards so high. And that could be problem because I know that it is going be only downhill with other medical professionals.If you are not afraid to set your standards very high, would recommend to visit Finch Avenue Optometry.

I reached out to Finch Avenue Optometry & Low Vision Centre with concerns with my left eye. My usual clinics are closer to the core but I was in an urgent situation and so I reached out to the closest clinic to my house.And boy am I glad I happened across this clinic!They squeezed me in due to the description I gave them of my symptoms. How amazing is that? And everything from intake to testing to examination was a fantastic experience. This is the best optometry clinic I’ve ever been to. Dr Stevens is superlative: she is compassionate, extremely knowledgeable and I felt like I was in the hands of a consummate professional. The staff and clinicians are warm, efficient and caring as well. Thank you for a great examination!

I had a wonderful experience with dr Stevens today with eye examination. She is so kind and professional. Staffs were really nice and helpful as well.Highly recommended.

It hurts me to give this rating but my recent experience with the front desk staff was not pleasant I won’t go into the details it is too much type but I felt the need to document it. The doctors we’re amazing as usual.

Dr. Sarah Stevens is great! Very professional and kind.I would highly recommend her to anyone. The staff are all courteous and friendly too. I would have given a 5-star rating except that, after sale service is poor. I requested a copy of the result of eye exam including digital retina imaging on Sept 24, 2022 to be sent to my email but still nothing received until now. I even made 2 follow-ups- by phone and upon pick up of my glasses, still nothing todate so after more than a month, I don't expect to receive anything at all.

GO ANYWHERE ELSEI've never in my experience of living in Toronto seen an optometrist scam someone so badly. An eye exam should cost from $80-$100 (usually regulated by Ontario Government). This Scam Artist charged over $200 without any word at booking or prior to the exam that it would cost over double of ANYWHERE else in the city. Not worth it, bad service and just disgusting robbery. Oh and they never answer their phones so good luck with that. I would highly suggest you go literally anywhere else.-EDIT AFTER RESPONSE FROM OWNER:Not only did it take over 3 months to get the appointment with this optician, but I could not get through to them on the phone any time I called, and they did not send me any paperwork ahead of my arrival and did not disclose the astronomical prices until I had already missed a day of work to make this appointment.I just went to use the prescription they gave me to buy a pair of glasses online and it did not contain all of the information I need to buy new glasses. The rx is missing the PD Distance and they are not even offering an apology that the almost $250 appointment only allows me to buy glasses from them. Absolute crooks. I cannot in good faith recommend anyone go here.

We took our 3 yr old to the facility last week for an eye appointment. Dr. Bandali and the entire team at Finch Avenue Optometry were amazing. The facility is modern, the staff are friendly and most important of all Dr. Bandali took her time to properly assess my son, discuss our concerns and help us with next steps. My wife and I can't say enough about our fantastic experience.

My family including my 8years old see Dr. Stevens for regular check up. She is amazing, very patient with kids, very knowledgeable and thorough. She explains every step of exam and treatment to us and listens well.

I visited finch Ave optometry as a New patient for a simple check-up. the clinic is spotless and everyone is friendly.I was seen by Dr at the exact time of the appointment. Dr Steven is a knowledgeable person who took enough time to listen and address all my concerns after a thorough examination. Overall a very smooth experience. I would recommend this place to everyone.

My Mother at the age of 97 couldn’t have had a better experience!! Dr . Papadakis and staff made her feel very comfortable and not rushed and took the time to explain to her options she can have to help her low vision. I would highly recommend their practice. Thank you to Dr Papadakis and staff.Jan Hartman
