“Allison was so nice and welcoming! If you're looking for a comprehensive but quick eye exam then Allison is for you!”
Initials hiddenJanuary 30, 2026
“I had a wonderful time at this office. I've never had an eye exam before and it felt super thorough. Once I sat with the doctor she asked me if I had any concerns and we talked about possible issues with my eyes. I set a follow up appointment to see her next week to do an additional test to rule out anything major. Overall the office was super nice and the equipment seemed hi tech. After the test I wasn't pushed to buy glasses. We talked about a few styles they had available. Did not end up purchasing and my prescription was quickly emailed over. ”

May 17, 2025Edgar C.Verified patient
I had a thorough and extremely helpful visit. There was an easy solution for my concern. I even got a glimpse of some glasses I plan on purchasing. I learned a lot just from that one visit. I always misplaced my glasses this time I have a pretty good feeling I’ll want to purchase more than one. The selection is really nice. Very clean office and rooms, nice and quiet. Definitely 10/10 and plan on going back.

I had an eye emergency and Dr. Allison Nguyen was available on the day. I was seen right away and she had the perfect bedside manner. She explained thoroughly what my situation was and what needed to be done. I'm one of those people who don't really understand medical terms but she spoke to me very well that I was able to understand what was happening. Would recommend!
