Recent reviews

Dr. Boyle and staff were very polite and professional. Had to wait awhile once in the room. However, whenever Dr. Boyle or staff member was in room I never felt rushed and always felt I could ask questions. I am sure they are like that with all their patients, and therefore the wait is warranted. I rather wait then feel rushed.
Excellent service. Courteous staff; friendly & knowledgable. Solved my dry eye issues on first visit.

Dr. Boyle was extremely professional, friendly, and had an excellent bedside manner. He was able to quickly diagnose the problem that I was having. His office staff were also very courteous and professional. I would highly recommend Dr. Boyle.
The front desk office staff were friendly and helpful. I went to get contact lens and new glasses. Dr. Boyle fit me with contacts that are very comfortable. The staff in the optical department were also very helpful in picking out a pair of new glasses.
