I went there for an eye exam and to get fitted for contacts. It has been a MONTH since my first visit and still have not received my TRIAL contacts. I received zero calls, and had to call the twice for an update. Spare yourself the nonsense and go to Wolfe.
I had bilateral cataract and lens implantation surgery which was a totally successful experience! I would recommend Dr Hammer and the staff of Des Moines Eye Surgeons to anyone.
We love the care we receive from Dr Ball. We also appreciate the kindness of the nurses and staff. Smiles on their faces when you walk in…our family loves DM eye surgeons.
I had LASIK some years back, and it was the best decision of my life! I loved knowing I’d see my surgeon before AND after my surgery, unlike anywhere else in the Metro. 10-years after surgery, my vision is still 20/20, and I’m just thrilled with the level of care I receive every year from my doctor.
Was to have cataract surgery paid for $350 and surgery was cancelled. Tried multiple times to get my $350 back……lied to with “check has been cut but not sent” or in the mail. NEVER got my money back. Credit Card company is now involved. Dr is good, accounting stinks.
The care was not good, you have to be very careful with what why you see the doctors here. The concentration of the services are towards how they can make patients pay more money out of their pockets.

All the staff was very pleasant. Made me feel at ease and they listened to my comments. Things moved very smoothly. I was in and out in less time than I figured.
I was said to possibly have an eye cancer at Wolfe Clinic. I was lucky to get to see Dr. Raecker and he quickly diagnosed me with a benign condition. Very knowledgeable and overall great experience. Highly recommended! Many thanks!
A great place to have your eyes checked upon. I’ve been coming here for 20 years now. It just can be pretty busy some days because the staff is typically booked with several clients a day.
Staff were not very conversational/friendly.

This was one of the most well-organized, friendly, professional, and thorough eye exam experiences I have ever had. I felt I received the individualized attention that I’d get going to a smaller practice, but with the benefits of a larger …
I do not care for this place! I am not one to use the race discrimination accusation. However, twice now the receptionist at the front desk has been extremely rude and I feel as though it may be racially motivated! And if I could give them less than 1 star I would!!!!
Great doctor, I had a similar eye issue I had when I lived in a smaller town a few years ago and this place was much more welcoming, understanding, and helpful when it came to healing up. Great prescription, they really tried to bring down …

Their caring staff and expertise are why I have never felt the need to change providers despite living outside of Des Moines. They take the time and the effort to do things right.
