“Very enjoyable and thorough visit! I hadn’t been to an eye doctor in some time and am happy I chose the Mann Eye Institute to help get me back on track with an updated prescription and find a new pair of glasses. The staff was very friendly. They made me feel welcome and well taken care of. Dr. Zimmerman gave thoughtful advice for my eye care and was both personable and professional to talk to. Beautiful office as well. ”

The doctor was very kind but the appointment was not helpful and not worth the money spent. My issue was ultimately not fixed and I wish I hadn’t scheduled to be seen.
