Dr. Bowden was wonderful he answered all my questions and told me about other options besides contacts. I am going to tell all my friends and family how wonderful the visit was!
ADVerified patient
Visit was great however they did not have my paperwork which was already completed online because the website did not make it clear that it had to be printed out by the patient and brought in or the patient would be filling out the same info.

I gave bren a patient of Bieden and Associates for more than 20 years. The staff is always pleasant, personable and helpful. The wait this time was minimal. The staff is knowledgeable and the technology is second to none. I would recommend Dr. Bowden to all my Associates. All of my family are patients
October 3, 2025Deborah B.Verified patient
The doctor was friendly and thorough but you have to see 3 other people first even if you don’t want glasses from them. It was too long for a routine eye exam, almost 2 hours!

All were very friendly & efficient.
February 9, 2023Dawn S.Verified patient
This office was 10/10. I have put off getting an eye exam done for years because of my experience at a different practice, but my appointment was quick and painless. The staff was so welcoming and helpful. Definitely recommend for any eye care needs!
January 18, 2023Paige A.Verified patient
Doc Robben has a wonderful blend of knowledge, compassion, and personality. He puts one at ease immediately, and is very thorough. He never rushes an appointment, taking any and all questions.
Class act working for a class organization (Bowden Eye).
January 13, 2023Mike B.Verified patient
The practice put way too much effort into trying to upsell the patient using high pressure sales tactics for products and services that (while not harmful) are certainly and factually unneeded.
March 13, 2022David R.Verified patient
Great
March 8, 2022Theodore M.Verified patient
Very efficient front end service. Marian, the Optometrist Assistant, was very thorough. Dr. Robben was also very willing to answer questions and his explanations were easy to understand. I was not pushed to buy anything I didn't need and was charged a fair price for my glasses.
January 11, 2022Joanne S.Verified patient
Very easy and quick visit.
December 2, 2021Melanie W.Verified patient

Dr. Robben and the whole staff were a pleasure to work with! So thoughtful and professional! I had a complex situation and Dr. Robben really took the time to work through any and all concerns I had and to properly assess what he believed was best for me. I am very grateful for this and will continue my care under him.

March 8, 2021Katherine "kathy" N.Verified patient
My first time with this doctor and location, but I liked it. Everyone was super nice and professionally. I didn't wait too long, but they did seem to have a bit of a back up. Everything was very nice and clean and explained well - maybe even a little repetitive, but I understand why they may want to emphasize certain things.

December 31, 2018Monica J.Verified patient
Most of my interaction was with the technicians, and they were all friendly and courteous, and knowledgeable in their duties. Dr. Robben was friendly and professional, and answered my questions. I enjoyed my visit to Dr. Robben's office. BTW, I don't use Facebook because of their failures with information security.
December 31, 2018Patsy R.Verified patient
Very professional and helpful. Saw me right away for my scheduled appointment time. Office staff were also very courteous and pleasant, and assisted me in finding the style of glasses I wanted.

Informative on eye care and whys to soothe eyes.
February 7, 2018Tiffany C.Verified patient
Good experience, took a little longer than expected but that was only because the patient before me was taking a long time so that really isn't anyone's fault. It's convenient that everything that was recommended to me was right there in the office.

Everyone was really helpful after I had a reaction to the dilation drops in my eyes. Dr. Robben was a complete professional and recommended a slew of items for my dry eyes and suggested testing for some autoimmune diseases. Overall, a beautiful, comfortable office with a great staff
August 23, 2017Sarah A.Verified patient
Staff was very friendly and professional. I had not been to the eye Doctor in about 20 years. Highly recommend them! I was a brand new patient which is why wait time was not right away.
June 6, 2017Mark M.Verified patient
I would NOT recommend making an appointment through ZocDoc for this office! I made myself and my daughter an appointment 10 days in advance AND filled out the new patient paperwork online. I even called the day before to confirm our appointments, the receptionist confirmed them. Then when we showed up for our appointment, they knew NOTHING about our appointments!!! We had to wait 30 minutes for them to scramble to work us in and put us on the schedule they had. But after the chaos, everything else went smooth and the staff and physician were very nice and professional.
April 25, 2017Lisa W.Verified patient
Dr. Robben and his staff were amazing! Everyone was super friendly and professional! Dr. Robben took his time explaining everything and made me feel comfortable!

The entire staff was professional and appeared to really care. I dislike going to the doctor. However because the staff was so friendly I was relaxed and felt as if I was spending time with friends.

Dr. Robben is always very professional at my visits. He takes the time to inform me and educate me on the status of my glaucoma. I cant say enough good things about my appointments with him. Staff is also great.
