“Every staff member was very polite and professional. The gentleman that did part of my eye exam took his time to thoroughly explain everything. The Doctor was kind and knowledgeable. They have a large selection of glasses to choose from so plan on taking extra time to choose the right pair. They seem to be a very busy office with multiple doctors so I am sure they run a tight schedule. The Optician was the best! She offered to help me without even asking and took her time to help me choose the right pair!! She even offered me a great deal on an extra pair of glasses just to keep on hand while at work. ”
