Dr. Saiyed was very friendly and took the time to explain exactly what tests she was running and her findings.
Verified patient
Very thorough and professional manner. Easy to talk to and explains things well. Did not make me feel rushed.
Could help myself but feeling like an ATM for her. All that was important was the way she could earn money.
Dr. Saiyed was friendly, informative and helpful. I will definitely return to her in the future.

Verified patient
She was amazing, and the best eye exam I have ever had.
Great experience, friendly team.
Verified patient
I was a little frustrated. I informed them about an ongoing eye issue, my history of treatment and how the normally-prescribed medication for this issue was not working. I was aware that minor surgery would most likely be needed in this case. They do not perform the needed surgery at this office. I would have appreciated that information before making the trip and paying for a referral.
Everything was great! Felt a little rushed into maybe buying some things I wouldn't have but other than that it was great service.
Visit was efficient, staff was friendly, and pricing was straightforward and made very clear. Their understanding of and description of insurance benefits was clear and concise.
Verified patient
Everyone in the office was highly professional. The information was provided in a clear, concise manner. They did not try to 'sell' me. The questions asked made sense and it was clear that what was important was that I be happy with the outcome.
Verified patient
Great Doc! Wonderful experience and staff.
Verified patient
Dr. Saiyed was wonderful. She was professional yet warm, and did a great job explaining both the steps of the eye exam and any ocular terms that were unfamiliar. Dr. Saiyed also gave relevant advice/best practices for eye health and seemed to really care. I would highly recommend her!
One of the best first time medical appointments ever! The staff, including Dr. Saiyed, were attentive, helpful, easy going, and incredibly friendly. Looking forward to future appointments!
Verified patient
Dr. Saiyed was extremely friendly & very helpful! She gave me a new eye cleaner to try and tips on how to keep my eyes from getting dry this winter. Great experience.
Dr. Saiyed is terrific. Really smart and helpful, and made me feel really comfortable to be there. However, I could tell she was very overbooked because there were a ton of people waiting around to see her as well as engaged in appointments-- I was there for over an hour before I saw her. Her office could probably do a better job with scheduling, but don't let that deter you, because she is super great.
Great visit- very quick and to the point. Just my annual eye exam. This office offers stylish and pricey glasses so if you're not looking for high end labels this isn't the place for you. If i could suggest one thing it would be * if someone sends all of their insurance info before hand, please don't make them refill it out and then wait 30 min in the office while you confirm everything- I made this appointment for my lunch break and ended up having to take a half day. Always, always, respect clients time.
She didn't really know how to fine tune the lenses. The frames were waaaay overpriced. One of the receptionists was really nice. The other one not so much.
Had to wait a bit later than my appt with no apology, explanation, or eta on actual wait time. But worth the wait. Very professional and explained everything well!
The service was phenomenal the best I've experienced in a long time. Although the wait was a bit it was definitely worth it, glad I chose to come here for my exam and glasses.
