This office can only be described as a swap meet for glasses. It is absolutely chaotic. The office shares a space with an optical glasses store, and in the middle of the appointment, the doctor will have you walk over to view glasses to sell you frames. The doctor did not inform me of procedures that he was doing that would leave me with blurry vision for the rest of the day . I had no choice other than to drive myself back home, which was a major liability to the office, and the doctor was very non chalant, gave me a pair of UV glasses and told me to be on my way. This was a horrific experience, and I would not recommend this office to anyone. Steer clear
