“Very satisfied with their welcoming attitude, no time wasted for consultation, they had most of my bio on file which to me was amazing. Doctor was caring , understanding, so transparent, and very helpful. Thank you all who assisted me today.”

“Dr. Carol and her staff were thorough and they move quickly once you get seen. The staff won't welcome you into the office, but the staff isn't rude either. Dr. Carol has a sweet demeanor. She's honest - she told me why my vision is the way it is, but she also didn't try to hound me into buying glasses nor did she pressure me into getting my eyes dilated. She just gave me the facts and let me make the my own decision.”

I would go back and I would recommend Dr. Carol Bringham. Based on my, Dr. Bringham was very focused in what she did, explained everything before administering proceeding, had great recall as to what I said. In other words, she was friendly and attentive to my needs. Nothing was done without getting my prior consent.

First time using this service. Office was clean and well organized, and the staff were very friendly. The Dr. B was efficient, patient and thorough. This was probably the longest eye exam I've had in recent years, largely due to the staff checking and re-checking various aspects of my vision. Felt positive about the state of being of my vision after all was said & done!
