Best eye doctor in the country. Basically grew up going to Dr. Scherick and he has never been short of extraordinary during every visit.
July 8, 2019Rand S.Verified patient
Wonderful Optometrist who I have been seeing for a number of years. I trust him 100%, always enjoy going to see him and I like the fact he errs on the side of not changing the prescription if there's only a slight change and I am in between prescription strengths.
