I’ve been seeing Dr. Herrington since she first opened Altadena Eye Care, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. She is not only an exceptional eye doctor, but also incredibly kind and personable. It’s clear she opened this practice to ensure her patients receive thoughtful, high-quality care. The office manager, Jason, is equally impressive. He is knowledgeable, professional, and makes the entire process seamless from start to finish. His experience in the field really shows. The eyeglass selection is outstanding, and the quality is noticeably superior to what you’ll find at typical chain stores. Jason recently helped me choose new frames, and his eye for what suits someone’s features is unmatched. He selected the perfect pair for me within minutes. I didn’t even have to second guess it. While the frames may cost more than budget options elsewhere, the craftsmanship and durability are immediately evident. As the saying goes, “Buy it cheap, buy it twice.” The pair Jason chose for me will last for years, and they are absolutely worth the investment.

I have been a patient of Dr. Herrington's since she opened Altadena Eye Care. She is an absolutely wonderful doctor! She is helpful, friendly, and compassionate. She is a great listener as well. My sister, who recommended her to me, followed her to Altadena Eye Care from her previous practice. Jason Martin, who also works in the practice, is phenomenal. I wouldn't trust anyone else to help me pick out frames!! He is great with insurance and communication, and is so knowledgeable about eye care as well.

Easily the best eye doctor i’ve ever been to. They are super efficient and personable. Jason is always so funny and really helpful with the insurance side of things. Last time I went he recalled a story I told him 3+ years ago. Dr. Herrington is really sweet and helpful about making decisions, for example deciding if I want to get contacts or just stick with glasses. I’ve only met Tait once but she was really nice as well. As a whole Altadena is the best doctor of any kind i’ve ever been to and I hope they continue to do great work!

Everyone in this office is very friendly and accommodating. Appointments are easy to make and when I had an eye emergency I was able to be seen the day of. Jason is especially great at helping figure out eyewear that’s suitable to specific faces. I’ve received so many compliments on my frames.

Dr. Herrington and her staff have been taking care of eyes for many years now…and they’ve done a superb job! Very personal service and a great selection of eyewear, too!
