* THIS REVIEW IS JUST FOR THEIR PHONE SYSTEM (so far)*Good luck trying to reach this office via phone. Ive been trying to call them to schedule an appointment for a family member for the last 2 days from 11AM-12PM then again from 1PM - closing. Yesterday (Wednesday)....called them at 12PM...got the message saying they are open on Monday-Friday from 8AM-12PM then again from 1-4PM. Called back several times from 1PM + ....same message. Ok....perhaps they got off early. Ill try again tomorrow.Today (Thursday), I tried calling from 11AM-12PM, same message (no problem, perhaps they are busy turned on the messaging machine early). Ive been on the phone every 5-10 mins trying to call them from 1PM til now (3:46 PM), still same message: Our office hours are.....please call back during those hours. Wow, how hard is it to reach them? Im seriously considering just driving there as they are only 10mins away. Im sure the doctors staff are great people like other reviewers say....provided you can get thru their telephone system to actually make an appointment to visit the office. Seems like their messaging machine has been on the whole day--I guess Ill have to try tomorrow (Friday).I tried calling again a few times in the morning on Friday, but got answering machine again, so I just drove there after lunch saw that they had a closed today sign in front. Perhaps theyve been closed for the last few days due to some unforeseen circumstances? Anything is possible during these Covid times. Ill try again next week.*Update* - after 1 week, I was finally able to reach them the lady I spoke to was super polite friendly. Adding 1 star as I was finally able to get through the phone system to reach a real human.*2nd Update * : After encountering the friendly staff doctors, Im updating the review to 5*. The friendliness, professionalism, and overall loving nature of the doctors nurses just surpasses everything makes all the headaches trying to reach them worth it. Btw, seems there is an option to leave a message now (during office hrs) an option to call the doctor on call for emergencies, so their phone system has improved as well.If you need any eye exam or eye surgery.... Do not hesitate to call them, you wont regret it. Oh, and if you cant reach them by phone, just drive there.
Dr. Pennachio is a very nice doctor, answers all your questions and has a very friendly efficient staff in his Eustis Office. I would highly recommend Dr. Pennachio for your Cataract and Stigmatism eye resolutions.
My experience with Dr. Pennachio and all of his staff is always a 10! Very professional, friendly and accommodating!
The moment I entered the office I was warmly greeted by the front desk staff. I had eye surgery and Dr Ryan Scruggs saw me before surgery reassuring me that all will be well and after surgery. His bedside manners are incredible - he showed great care and interest in me as if he was taking care of his own father. On my return visit, I saw his wife, Dr. Dawn Scruggs. She was just as friendly, caring and patient as her husband. I had two follow up visits with her; she treated me the same way as my first visit with her. I HIGHLY recommend Drs. Ryan and Dawn Scruggs. Not only are they compassionate physicians but they treated me like family.
