As a first time patient I was only there for a routine vision exam so the wait time wasn’t long. All the secretary’s were nice and helpful. Dr LaCorte was quick and to the point.

The doctor him self was good but the wait was ridiculous got there an hour before my appointment and was seen two hours later, staff was super friendly, super nice, there even offered food. Over all experience was great just the wait was a little to much

Verified patient
Today’s visit was my first time with this doctor and practice. The office was clean. The waiting room was spacious to accommodate the patients. The staff was professional and courteous. I didn’t have to wait. I was 30 minutes early and they checked me in and I saw the doctor at my scheduled time. The doctor explained everything he saw and took the time to ask any questions I had and took the time to answer them. I highly recommend him.
Verified patient
The assistants inside office need a course in professionalism in customer service. Assistants utilize their cell phones too much, it seemed they were bored.
I was very impress with the front desk, they were very welcoming. Every question I had it was answer very clearly. Once I was called in, everything was done a step at a time and it was explained as to why certain test were done and for what reason. The best part about this clinic is that you can just walk in and you will be seen. I had an amazing experience.
