Dr. Hess was professional, thorough and quick. This was only my second time having an eye exam and he explained his every procedure. I wish more doctors followed his lead. Plus, his receptionist is very personable and polite to customers. THANK YOU!!!
I needed to find a new optometrist and I’m so glad I chose Dr. Hess! He was very patient and thorough and gave me great advice and referrals for some more in depth vision issues that need to be addressed. The front of the house receptionist is awesome as well! Very nice and gave me honest advice as to which frames complimented me the best.... we also had a few laughs goofing around with some of the more “off the wall” frame choices. I highly recommend this business!
I have been goin to Dr Hess for years an I love the office! I love the glasses my kids an myself have purchased. They have an awesome selection. EVERYONE in the office is great! Thank you for being SUCH great employees. Keep up the good work! An good job in LIVENING THE PLACE UP!
The staff is not friendly or helpful. We had a simple problem and they refused to help me. All i wanted was them to either fix my frames or sell me one that would fit the lenses, there answer was no because my script was out of date which had nothing to do with the frames. Doctor Hess is ok but his staff leave alot to be desired. I ended up getting a pair of sun glasses from some where else transferred the lenses, problem solved.
Dr Hess was great thoroughly explained to me my options with glasses!!! His receptionist was one of the best she walked me through the selection of my glasses and showed me many frames and gave me honest feedback on how they fight my face!!! I’m not sure if her name but the one with long hair and glasses very professional much appreciated customer service
