“So appreciated the reminders about my appointment. And just how friendly everyone was. I never felt like I was a burden at the appointment and was even helped to pick out a pair of glasses that looked good on me. I wasn't given frames just based on their cost. It was nice to have someone listen to what I was saying. ”
