Comprehensive Eye Care of New England

I had my first appointment with Dr Elgas today and I was extremely impressed. Not only were the staff wonderful but I spent a large amount of time with the doctor which is never occurred to me in any of my eye exam appointments. In fact most recently I went to another clinic and I was there for an hour but only spent 3 to 4 minutes with the doctor. Here, the doctor answered my questions, shared and discussed my scans with me and then did sit me down with their optometrist to possibly purchase lenses. I was very honest that I was only going to think about the cost for a little bit but could I have a copy of my prescription. He immediately printed it out with no hesitation. So I don't understand other people saying that they were made to be uncomfortable when they didn't want to buy the glasses there. In fact I discussed with him putting the new lenses into my existing frames and he was all for it. He was actually suggesting that I save money. The entire office is just a pleasure including their occasional mascot Hark

I actually love coming to my annual eye appt, as everyone working here is fantastic and friendly. I have seen Dr. Elgas for close to 25 years, and LOVE her. She is smart, knowledgeable, personable, and compassionate. She is a great dr but also, a great person. And multi-talented. Did you know about her musical ability? The woman can do it all. Love catching up with Mimi at the front desk (and Kathy before her.) She always has a smile waiting for patients as they enter the door and a friendly goodbye when you leave. Having the optics shop on site is added convenience, and there is always someone available to help with glasses. I have not only vision issues, but eye health ones as well, and Dr. Elgas treats it all and refers me out if needed. I would recommend this practice to anyone needing not just an optometrist, but wanting a GREAT one.

You will not find a more friendly, accommodating and professional eye care office than at Comprehensive Eye. Dr Elgas is thorough and excellent at what she does. The entire office team is friendly and only want what’s best for their patients. I’m very surprised about the bad review re: “Mimi at the front desk”. I’ve had nothing but a professional experience. They do book out months at a time because that’s how good they are and honestly, a pretty common timeframe for most dr appointments. Highly recommend this practice.

I’m confused by any review that’s other than 5 stars! Going to the eye doctor is one of those appointments that I used to dread but I actually look forward to it now ever since I became a patient at Comprehensive Eye Care. The staff is so attentive and friendly. Dr. Elgas is so thorough and knowledgeable and I’m so glad I found this gem! If you’re looking for an eye doctor in this area, definitely book an appointment here
