Every step of this appointment, from booking it online to speaking to the receptionist on the phone to being seen in the office, was a breeze, handled with clarity and ease. They made sure I was correctly assessed for some particular issues I'd been having with dry-eye and redness, and I left with a clear treatment plan and a follow-up appointment on the books. The optometrist also took the time to answer some questions I had about laser vision correction and other procedures I was curious about.
I found my interaction w/ Dr. Tilin authentic and unrushed. She showed care throughout the examination and was attentive to my eye condition and history. She was also very patient in explaining my vision issue. I highly recommend her and plan to go back to follow-up. :]
Verified patient
Everyone here is very nice and helpful. I will definitely recommend it, and I will be returning. Thank you, everyone, for being so patient and helpful
Verified patient
Dr. Tilin and the medical assistants provided an excellent service! No wait time was required, the check-ups were professionally executed and helpful advise was given. Everyone was exceptionally friendly.
My experience with Dr. Tilin was exceptional! I made the appointment because I had a sudden onset of some visual disturbances in my peripheral vision. She listened closely to me to get a detailed understanding of my symptoms and took the situation very seriously. She did a thorough examination and ran a number of tests. She referred me out for further tests which all came back normal but I appreciated her cautiousness. She's been very proactive in following up and has a very kind and caring demeanor. I highly recommend her!
Verified patient
