Doctor and all staff are extremely pleasant....and funny! Very engaging and neighborly team. Also, I was late(shame on me) but I was still seen right away. Dr. Menger was great, straight forward, and very helpful.
Dr. Menger is friendly and professional. The doctor was thorough in his examination of my son and took the time to explain the diagnostic work. I would recommend him to friends and will be going back for my own eye exam.

A very professional environment with excellent staff members. Dr Menger knows what he's doing and I would highly recommend him.
Verified patient
Peter Menget was excellent. His bedside manor was more than appropriate for my 7 year old. Although initially I was not greeted upon entering and I sat down without knowing there was a clipboard sign it. The office clerks were very helpful. After my visit I met with the eyeglass clerk and felt there should be more privacy during that interaction.

Verified patient
It was great.
Verified patient
This was my first appointment with Dr Menger, and I felt he was very professional, and has a great sense of humor. I had been going to the same ophthalmologist since my childhood (no joke) so going to a new one was a big awkward but I left that office with new contacts, new glasses, and a reference for an eye surgeon if I should consider surgery in the future.
Verified patient
Dr. Menger was wonderful during my appointment as was his assistant who came in ahead of time. I did have to wait 30 minutes to be taken to a room and then waited another 10-15 to see the doctor. Aside from the long wait time, the only other unpleasant part of the experience was the optician who handled the co-pay for my insurance. She was rude and inpatient when I wanted to take a moment to confirm my co-pay and she also took forever to process the payment and make a copy of my prescription. From walking in to leaving it took 1 hour 45 minutes.

Except the fact that I was taken in more than an hour after my appointment time, even if I got there twenty minutes before my appointment time, professional service was good; administrative service not so much.

Although the office claimed that my ZocDoc reservation was not in their system they were able to squeeze me in for my original appointment time. Dr. Menger thoroughly explained everything to me and answered all of my questions with ease. I will surely go back to this office!
Verified patient
A gentleman
Verified patient
Check in and out was fast. The work-up by ophthalmologist assistant was fast and satisfactory, but waiting time to actually see the doctor was over 40 minutes.
Verified patient
Dr. Peter Menger was funny, informative, quick in his diagnosis and excellent in keeping me calm while doing a procedure that made me nervous. He was able to do that because he used his humor to get through the procedure. He was awesome!! It comes to no surprise as to why he was given a 5-star review when I was looking for an eye doctor. Now, I am the next satisfied patient who's done the same!
Verified patient
