“The receptionist was absolutely delightful I mean just the sweetest and humorous and very knowledgeable. Even though the wait was long and the office was kind of crowded she made it bearable. My first time an it was efficient and quick. The glasses cost a grip so I’d said just get your prescription and some cheap frames for the initial visit. Overall great experience. Thoroughly satisfied. The doctor was a doll as well, quick and precise.”

She was rushed in asking me about my information. I did not get to tell her all the medications i'm on or all the illnesses i have because she would just hear one, say uh-huh and then go on to the next question.

I really love this place. The staff was kind, and for once, I felt like my examine was through. You can tell they really care about their patients, and they're really informed. I will definitely be sure to follow with this physician. It's nice to have found a doctor I like who cares
April 12, 2024Marie E.Verified patient
All my options was pointed to the expensive frames and not the frames that was in my budget, they encourage you to sigh up for the credit that don’t do back ground checks however the credit is only good for 90 days! Not happy with this one I’ll make a better choice next year
