“When you walk in you’re greeted with a hello, politely asked your name and appointment details. That’s important to me it says they’re prepared. Dr Chen was great we discussed my eye issues and respected that i was well informed of my situation and listened to my questions without over talking or rushing me. The eye exam was informative and Dr Chen explained even further why my vision was deteriorating. The whole experience was great, I highly recommend this place.”
