I actually love this place. Dr. Taylor must keep incredible notes because I’ll come in for my annual appointment (12 months after my last visit) and he’ll ask me how my beach vacation was or whether my coworkers ever stopped beefing. 😂 It always makes me laugh, but I also think it’s such a thoughtful and intentional way to build and maintain a relationship with patients he only sees once a year. One minor complaint (Not with this office even, but with a return policy) - I was a little frustrated to learn that once a pair of glasses are ordered, returning them comes with a pretty hefty restocking fee. The frames here are also on the expensive side (as is everything else in the world). If you’re looking to save some money or want a more flexible return policy, I’d recommend buying your glasses through an online retailer after getting your prescription. The prices are much much lower, and returns tend to be quick and hassle-free. I recommend Dr. Taylor to everyone I know!

I am extremely satisfied with Babcock Vision. The doctor and all the staff were very nice, caring and helpful people. The exam i had done was very thorough and professionally done. I found out things I've been needing to know for some time and my problems can be corrected with glasses. Everyone else was putting my vision problems as medication side effect. Thank you Dr.Babcock and staff for being so caring and nice! I will be back and will recommend you to anyone! 10 of 10! Oh, my name is Sabrina Asbury, this account has my maiden name on it. 🙂

Not the best service I've had. Too long to get in. Then longer for another appointment 5 months away. Life's to short to wait on these people. I can find better.

I went to Babcock eye care twice. The Docters were great. How ever I had trouble with the optician the first time when my lens came out of my glasses the first time The first Time in one week.!! The Optician said she would see about fixing them they never called Back,!! We went to the office a couple months later for her to tale me it would be $76 Dollars to fix them.!! so Wearing Backup glasses for a year.!! I was told that they had Hired a new Optician . !! So I went for another Eye exam with Taylor who was Great.!! The new Optician was Better thin the last at Fitting Frames.!! I get my new Glasses.!! Have them a Couple months and the Lens falls out again.!! So having to resort to wearing Back up glasses again I went to someone else who said the Frame was not cut Properly in the Lab.!! Both Doctors are Fantastic at What they Do.!!
