I can't say enough great things about Dr. Bradley Doolen and Marlene. From the moment my wife and I walked in, we felt welcomed and completely at ease. Dr. Doolen was thorough, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything clearly. Marlene was friendly, patient, and made choosing our glasses easy and stress-free. Their professionalism, kindness, and genuine care truly stand out. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional eye care. Thank you both for making our experience so comfortable and enjoyable!!

Such a great place. Dr. Doolen was wonderful. He made me feel so comfortable during my exam. He was very patient with me he explains everything as he’s doing it so you actually know what’s happening. His office staff are so friendly they actually stayed late with me to find the perfect fitting glasses and sunglasses for my face. The selection of glasses are wonderful. Great place great staff friendly atmosphere great visit. Definitely going back again.
I recently had an eye exam with Dr. Bradley Doolen, and I was extremely impressed with the level of care and professionalism he provided. Dr. Doolen was personable, friendly, and exceptionally thorough throughout the entire appointment. He carefully explained every step of the examination process, not only describing what he was doing, but also educating me on what he was looking for and why each part of the exam was important. His ability to explain complex aspects of eye health in an easy-to-understand manner made the experience both informative and reassuring. I was particularly nervous about the glaucoma testing, but Dr. Doolen’s calm demeanor and clear communication immediately put me at ease. His patience and attention to detail made me feel comfortable and confident that I was receiving excellent care. I was equally impressed by his Optician, Marlene. I observed how efficiently she worked while helping patients select their eyewear. She demonstrated a keen eye for sizing, fitting, and styling, ensuring each patient found frames that complemented their face shape and personal style. Her knowledge, professionalism, and customer service were outstanding. I highly recommend scheduling your next eye exam with Dr. Doolen. If you need glasses, Marlene will make sure you find the perfect eyewear to help you look and feel your best. Together, they provide an exceptional patient experience from start to finish. Ryan D.

Dr. Doolen and Marlene were great. I got my glasses and contacts with Marlene and she was very helpful and very nice. It was a pleasant experience.
We have been going to Dr. Doolen for over 20 years, and from the moment you walk in, you are treated like family. The entire team is caring, professional, and truly ethical. They always prescribe what is genuinely right for you — never more, never less. When it comes to choosing eyeglass frames, they take the time to help you find something that fits your face, your personal style, and your budget. You never feel pressured. Before going to Dr. Doolen, my husband was actually over-prescribed by another eye doctor. Under Dr. Doolen’s care, his eyesight improved dramatically. That level of integrity and expertise is rare. We are incredibly grateful and highly recommend this practice.
