I needed new glasses and was in a hurry to get my eye exam before switching insurance. Dina was able to get me on the schedule quickly, which I really appreciated. The optometrist Dr. Brinker (Dr. Blinker 😉) was very thorough and had an excellent bedside manner, making the entire exam comfortable and easy. I had no idea what style of frames would look best on my face, but Dina took the time to help me choose frames that suited me perfectly. I'm very happy with my new glasses and the excellent service I received. I've definitely found a great place to return to for my yearly eye exams!

I had an excellent experience at this optical center from start to finish. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive, making the entire visit feel comfortable and stress-free. The eye exam was thorough, and the optometrist took the time to explain everything clearly, answer my questions, and make sure I understood my prescription and eye health. The selection of frames was impressive, with options for every style and budget. The team was also very helpful in guiding me toward frames that fit well and suited my preferences without being pushy. Once I made my choice, the ordering process was smooth and efficient, and my glasses were ready sooner than expected. What stood out most was the level of customer care—everyone genuinely seemed to care about providing a great experience. I left feeling confident in my purchase and well taken care of. I would highly recommend this optical center to anyone looking for quality service!
I had a great experience during my appointment yesterday. The doctor was very professional, kind, and took the time to explain everything clearly. The staff were also very friendly, respectful, and welcoming. Thank you all for the excellent care and service!
Golden Gate has been our our Eye Dr office for 8 years now. Dina and staff are absolutely amazing!!! They have remembered my son and I on a personal level ever since our 1st visit, even though they see us once a year lol Since the 1st time I went to this office, I never again wanted to go somewhere else. They made me feel like I was with some long lost family or friends. The exam is always so quick. My son and I are done in about 20/30 minutes or less, given if we're talking more or not to our Dr back there lol Choosing our glasses afterwards is always such a breeze. They are so helpful with helping us choose what looks best on us and within my range for out of pocket after what my insurance covers. Our glasses and contacts are always such a quick turnaround time for pickup. I love everything about the office and staff!!!
Extremely rude front desk. Supervisor Dina was of no help. My wife went for an eye exam and a few days later had two styes on both her eyes. The machines were dirty and looked unkept. We called back to ask about it and to ask about some insurance stuff. As soon as we brought it up she got extremely defensive, started talking loudly and extremely dismissive. She brought up religion and told my wife to act respectful. No apology, no acknowledgement, and started blaming my wife when she had no issues in the past. She said my wife walked in with red eyes before we started the consult. Dina also had poor behavior with other clients in the store. Save your money go somewhere else where they at least listen to your concerns.
