“Genuinely nice, fun doctor. Never feels rushed, but also not a waste of time. Convenient neighborhood for a snack and coffee before or after.”

“My appointment with Dr. Garlich was wonderful! Staff was friendly and helpful. Dr. Garlich was patient and reviewed all my questions thoroughly and took time to explain all her findings and to offer solutions. First time in a long time, that I felt I had someone proactively working on my overall eye health and care vs just giving me a basic eye exam. ”
