Don’t waste time find a different optometrist

I called to make an appointment and qualify for a yearly OHIP eye exam. Her staff advised that the Dr will not see any new OHIP patients anymore due to the action between optometrists and OHIP payouts. They then told me all about this action being taken (like I have any say in this) so I was refused an appointment. Upon looking into this matter myself it has been made clear that as of September 1st this may be policy until an agreement is reached, however it was August 2nd that I called. So she is denying patients who may need help have an eye condition that can get worse to the point that there is no longer anything that could be done to help. Ignoring patients is a disgusting practice by any dr ever especially over money. You can still aid patients while this is worked out. Doing declines this early (before September and even at all) shows how much she cares about patients and that is shown to be not at all.
