“I loved the experience. The staff was professional and friendly and efficient. The doctor was great, listened for my concerns, explained her process, and gave me great suggestions. I also loved her equipment. I love seeing the new technology in place.
lastly, I had no intention to buy my glasses on site, but the office manager had such good customer service that I changed my mind.”

“My appointment with this optometrist resulted in me getting diagnosed with a bizarrely rare neuro-opthalmological disorder. Without this random appointment, my condition might've rapidly worsened and I could've lost part or all of my vision. So, thank you. ”

The doctor was great! I’d go back! But the staff was like leaving a car dealership, they just wanted more money then and there and got mad when I said I’d follow the doctors instructions and call when I knew I wanted to order the new contacts. They said I’d lose money if I listened to the doctor for a rebate? I won’t return to this office but I did enjoy the eye doctor herself if she moves I’d recommend her! Doctor was great, just be wary of the office people.
