I had a fantastic experience at the eye clinic. The entire process was smooth and professional, but I want to especially highlight the incredible service provided by the receptionists, Gladys and Nathy. They were so helpful, kind, and attentive, making me feel comfortable from start to finish. Their warm and welcoming attitude truly made a difference. Thanks to their excellent care, I now feel confident bringing my child to this clinic for future eye care needs. Highly recommend!

I went for the first time on 03/21/2026 for both me and my son. The Medical staff including the receptionist naty and Gladys were amazing, kind and very professional. The assistance and doctor were amazing, kind, professional, respectful, understanding and helpful. Over all my experience was amazing. The only problem I have is when I went to pick out my glasses. The gentleman kept trying to push for a sale wanting me to add more stuff to my glasses after telling him I was ok with the insurance one. I just felt obligated, and force to put something. He made picking out glasses for me uncomfortable. Anyway when a customer is picking out glasses such things like anti-glare or uv light should be recommended but not an obligation. He wasn't listening to me as a customer and that made me upset. Upstairs staff amazing and loving. Downstairs lack alot of professional understanding.

I went here for an eye exam. First time guest.. I was greeted upon arrival. Staff very friendly. Dr amazing he explains and walks you through an understanding. I had a package coming they allowed me go home obtain package and come by and see the Dr. I now have a new glasses place. Will be back in 3 weeks.
