I saw the optometrist for less than 10 minutes. He barely spoke to me, but he seemed OK, didn't really bother me. The techs clearly have no idea what HIPAA is because one came up to me as I was checking out and informed me that one of my tests was actually abnormal and I should start taking some vitamins that they are selling... right in front of other patients.
UPDATE: I can't "respond" to your reply so I am just editing my post to reply.
#1 - I didn't have any questions.
#2 - You say I didn't have any medical issues but evidently I did because you forgot to tell me and your staff person had to tell me in the lobby as I was walking out.
#3 - I left angry because your staff discussed my medical information in the lobby in front of other patients and staff. AKA breaking HIPAA. I guess you're not concerned .
#4 - Despite vitamins being a $30 billion industry in the US there really is no evidence that they do anything for disease prevention, not related to nutritional deficiencies. I may only be a nurse practitioner and not a big fancy doctor but I read JAMA.. So you can keep your vitamins.
Please train your staff on patient privacy. Make patients feel human. Do not attack them online if they give you a bad review.
