An absolute pleasure to visit! Everyone was so friendly and so welcoming. My first visit and it was so refreshing to have in depth conversations regarding my eyesight and really understand all my options regarding eyeglasses and contacts. I loved all the help when picking out my new frames, truly making the entire process so easy and simple. I was very nervous about coming in as a new patient but the entire team made the process super easy! I am very grateful for the Fulghum Team. 5 stars all around!

I've been to MANY eye doctors over the years. I've never been treated as kindly as I have a a Fulghum. The doctor took the time to explain what was going on with my vision in a way no eye doctor ever has. He offered practical solutions for real problems I've been having for years. At no point did I feel rushed or dismissed by any of the staff, which has gotten to be more common everywhere. I appreciated not being upsold for frames out of my price range and am massively grateful to the gentlemen who noticed the style of frames I was looking at and was actually the one who found the frames I ended up picking, and they're some of my favorites I've ever had. I nearly cried when I put them on because I could see clearer than I have in years thanks to an actually correct prescription. I will 100% be back.
Great experience. Everything was explained, from the tests they were doing to walking me through what my insurance covered in detail. Everyone was friendly and kind.
If you wish to see this Dr. please do NOT book an appt on line, do NOt book with zocdoc. This is an AEG owned practice (private equity) as noted at end of their marketing website. Despite impression it is no longer home grown and/or wholesome. AEG uses proprietary scheduling software notorious for double booking, failure to alot correct amt of time for appt ie, pediatric cases, glasses & contact, eye condition,etc. All take more than 10 min slot. Please Google AEG and/or their scheduling system and you will find a plethora of bad press to confirm what I say. Scheduling and business practices. Please call directly, confirm all appoint information and take name. It would be wise also, before ending call or visit, to have an email or valid appt card in your possesion. Also confirm and take name and title of person making appt. We do not know staff turn around. Now, I cant say they wont change your appt within the day, week or hours leading to your appt. This is not a new problem, and they will kill you with kindness but your time you made at your expense will not be compensated in any way. I can tell you nothing of the doctor other than this is one of two practices he is listed. Believe other south florida. An optometrist, no matter affability or ability is of no benefit if you do not get to see when you agreed to see. Hope this helps. Trust but verify.
Everyone in the office is very kind and welcoming. This was my first time getting an eye exam in a long time but Dr. Nason and the staff were patient, personable and made sure any questions I had were answered. I highly recommend going here.
