“The staff was very welcoming.make you feel comfortable and relax. Nice doc to go to. I love the staff Everything a business should have for their customers.”
Brenda H.March 24, 2026
“Really pleased with my experience! I work night shift, so was hoping for an easy appointment and I got it! Quick and painless, appointment was a breeze. They saw me right after my paperwork was done and I was picking out glasses before I knew it. Staff was super friendly. I almost got skipped at the final step, but one of the employees said I had been waiting for a bit (picking glasses) and they saw me right away. Everyone in the office was knowledgeable, patient, and easy to talk to. Will be going back!”

I’m not sure if the office was having an off day, but the staff were not friendly. They also were unkind to my mom who accompanied me on the visit. The doctor didn’t shake my hand or introduce herself to me. She wasn’t very personable, and I felt as if she didn’t really care about me persay. Due to the nature of my issue, she passed me off to a specialist. I would have appreciated more insight, kindness, and personality especially considering the nature of my eye trouble. Nevertheless, the office did follow procedures and I was given clarity on my underlying issue. However, the bedside manner needs improvement and growth. Friendliness, smiles, and small talk go a long way.

Dr. Dorothy was fantastic! She was thorough, straightforward, and honest. She managed her time well and was pleasant. I'd definitely see her again.

I would go back. Dr. Lea and Technician were both really professional with clear communications. Ended up getting a referral to a retina specialist as my eyes are in poor health and low vision capability.
