I had a great experience as a new patient here, and as a first time user of ZocDocs! I was unable to get my previous provider to even call me back and badly need of new glasses and wanting to try contact lenses for the first time. I was able to book within a few days and chose this doctor based on her 5 star reviews. I live about 30 mins away from Hopkinton, but this was well worth the drive! Dr. Straub was actually the first person who greeted me when I walked in, which I did not realize because I am new, and was so friendly and welcoming! The customer care experience was consistent with everyone else on her team being friendly and accommodating, and very patient as they taught me how to use my new contacts. Their office systems are very efficient and it was overall a high touch experience for me.
