It was good, He is very informative and answered all my questions. His office is clean and the wait time was very minimal.

He was great--I had a long wait because they had to verify my insurance that the company took forever--not their fault.

First timer, Dr. Steiminger took good care of me.. Was very comfortable and the staff was pleasant and professional across the board..
February 26, 2020Diana S.Verified patient
I have never in my life been in and out of a doctors office this fast, while still feeling totally listened to and taken care of. ALSO, the guy who helped me pick out my glasses was efficient, friendly, and most importantly listened to my weirdo preferences while still finding things flattering to my eyes / face.
February 7, 2020Julianne N.Verified patient
Very professional doctor. However, front desk needs to improve. The staff need to compose themselves in professional manner. Also, the music at a medical office, was highly unprofessional. How about classical?
Otherwise, very fine and smart doctor. Very direct, straightforward.
February 5, 2020Zareen A.Verified patient
Dr. Steiminger is nice and friendly. His professionalism is stellar to say the least. He took his time and asked many questions concerning my eye health. He explain each exam being performed and the staff was equally as friendly and knowledgeable. The office is clean and well organized great lighting displaying various options of eye wear. Great experience from beginning to the end. I give them 5 stars!!

The visit was ok.
December 12, 2019Sonii W.Verified patient
He lacked friendly demeanor and was opinionated.
I will have to either return to have my prescription redone or find a new doctor to have it done.

Dr. Steiminger was AWESOME! He wanted to hear what my concerns were and gave me his honest feedback (which I appreciated).

Great doctor. I will definitely recommend him.
More than 1 year agoElias GVerified patient
My appointment was the first one of the day and I had scheduled it the evening beforehand. I was in and out very quickly. The eye doctor performed both an eye glasses exam and a contact lenses exam in one visit. He was very thorough. I did the eye exam with and without my contact lenses. He used a machine to test for glaucoma. He used another machine where you focus on an image. I was given an extra pair of contact lenses at the end of my visit.
February 8, 2019Malarie K.Verified patient
Appt was quick and easy - staff and doc were friendly. As other reviews pointed out - didn’t clean off all the face/chin rests before used them which only bothered me a little. Otherwise helpful and considerate.

I felt that he was helpful and made me feel comfortable visiting as a first time patient. I only had to wait 10 minutes or so while I filled out forms.

Amazing.
November 26, 2018Leuri N.Verified patient
The doctor was nice and professional, although I will add he wasn’t very personal. He gets the job done and you’re out. It wasn’t a problem for me but I’d had warmer doctors before. The associates were very nice. One of them even helped me for about 20-25 min picking out the right frames. She was very patient and that meant a lot! Overall satisfied
September 13, 2018Initials hidden
The doctor was great and waiting time for him was short, but waiting for the picking the frames of the glasses was over half hour.
