New name, same service for eye docs

Even with a name change, Drs. Todd Staniszewski and Nora Clancy want to assure their patients they will still get the same service they’ve come to expect.
Optometrists Staniszewski and Clancy’s office, will now be known as Advanced Eye Care of Michigan.
‘It’s important our patients are aware that we still offer the same great services and doctors as well as the same great staff. The name change doesn’t reflect a change in personnel,? Staniszewski said.
The former Henry Ford Optimeyes has been in the same location for the last five years and in business for 13 years, offering patients complete eye care. Advanced Eye Care offers eye exams for children and adults, contact lens fitting specialists, medical eye treatment, a large designer frame inventory, on-site lab and one-hour service on most prescriptions.
‘Part of the reason we’re changing our name is because we’ve experienced huge growth and the change allows us more flexibility in the services we offer to our patients and the different products we can deliver,? Staniszewski said.
‘It gives us new freedoms in what we can do and the services we can offer.
‘We’re listening to that and we’re designing our office around the wants and needs of our patients, not that of the doctors, insurance companies or the staff.?
After surveying patients, Staniszewski said the doctors found patients wanted simplified office visits. Changes in staff training, new programs set up for the flow of the office and new technology is helping Advanced Eye Care stay efficient.
A retinal scanner helps the doctors by performing diagnostic tests on patients, giving them a better view of the eyes.
‘We don’t have to do as many dilations, but yet we’re not compromising any clinical care,? Staniszewski said.
‘It helps us in many cases because we won’t have to dilate the eyes, but the patient is still getting a very thorough exam in less time without the inconvenience of dilation.
‘It’s really cutting-edge technology.?
With auto-refractor and visual field equipment, Advanced Eye Care can stay in touch with patients. The technology allows a doctor’s assistant the to perform cutting-edge tests and the doctor more time for analysis and discussion with patients.
‘We make sure we’re answering their questions and it allows us not to spend as much time doing manual tests,? Staniszewski said.
