I do not feel that he met my needs and that this optical store has a clear understanding of gas permeable contact lens.

June 27, 2025Kelly H.Verified patient
Jossi is helpful as always. She asked before starting a pre-check process before seeing an eye doctor. Today I met Dr Evan Hapner who happened to be very knowledgeable. Not only he's expert for what he does but in overall he's one of the coolest eye doctor I have met. I really appreciate Sauganash Family Care to have Dr Hapner there. Last but not least, Mr Larry is there to get the lenses, frames and insurance information you. He always make sure your glasses will fit you well. Thank you sir.

Very efficient and straightforward
November 15, 2016Alana V.Verified patient
Dr. Harper is extremely efficient - and I really appreciate this! The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 was simply that I wanted a little more time to discuss options, and I feel like I was pushed through the door pretty quickly.

Nice guy. The 3D eye mapping was cool.
June 28, 2015Chase W.Verified patient
Dr. Hapner is excellent about explaining what he's doing and answering questions. I was there for a follow up after laser eye surgery and he was realistic and honest about the long-term results I could expect. It felt like two professionals talking about technical work, with no talking down or salesmanship tactics. Refreshing!
