“My first time here. My appointment went well. They accepted my medical Insurance with a co-pay. Very honest feedback and helpful. The whole team of staff were helpful. Offering a discount for my new frames. I’m looking forward to picking up my new glasses in about a week or two.

Dr. Wanon was excellent! The other staff members were excellent as well! Everyone was very friendly and answered all of my questions.
January 7, 2025Samantha P.Verified patient
The receptionist and doctor were very nice. The appointment was fine, but not great communication with the patient. Too fast clicking between options and asking questions like "is there a difference between these two" instead of which is better? Nice person, odd appointment.
The reason we will never return is the gentleman who was supposed to help with glasses. I use gentleman lightly because he was bossy, controlling and flat out rude, wouldn't answer a very simple question, what our budget was... ridiculous. I will spend our money where people are kind and helpful.
