Verified patient
Not impressed with the dr. I was with her less than 2 minutes. She didn’t say much and seemed more interested in having me buy glasses. Will not be going back. Office staff was friendly but they messed up on my apt time, once they realized mistake they pushed me through. Tech was friendly.
Efficient and warm. Professional. I’m glad to have found them. Everyone working there was so nice and knew what they were doing. I’m confident about my experience and will stay there, for sure!
Verified patient
Dr. Moreira and her staff were all very kind and professional. I was taking into promptly for my appointment and was given a very thorough examination. My questions were answered and I left feeling very confident about my examination and my new prescription.
The male optometrist was very skilled and professional. He made me feel comfortable while he was doing my eye exam and confirmed my prescription. Dr. Moreira came after my eyes were dilated and she did more checking. Overall I spent about 15mins with the doctors, and I waited 10mins in the beginning. I was happy that I took the time to find the office.

great visit pleasant staff
Verified patient
Excellent. I am definitely a long-term patient.
Verified patient
I was completely appalled at how tactless and abrasive the receptionist was. She was incredibly disrespectful to an older woman there without a referral or something. I could hear all of this because of how loud the girl was. Very unfeeling, completely over the top anc zero people skills. When I was checking out, she was obnoxious to me as well and just...no class or manners. Very rough around the edges. Really takes away from the otherwise lovely office. She needs retraining or to be replaced.
The care was excellent

Thank you
