The staff at Sewickley Eye Group is kind, parient, and at all times friendly. They seem to offer everything from your exam to your glasses in one facility. I worked with Dr. Kressley, who was very thorough, with both my medical history and my examination. My visit was a happy and easy one, and I happily recommend you make an appointment and see for yourself.

We didn't even wait we were taken immediately. They were able to schedule my grandson and me right after each other. Sherry helped me pick out frames that would look good on me. Dr. Staines is always helpful and let us know just what we needed.

The doctors and staff were very nice and knowledgeable. My first 2 appointments were on time. My 3:00 appointment was delayed until 4:20. Then I waited in the 2nd waiting area until 5:15. I took 2 hours of vacation time from work. I wish I had received a phone call telling me to arrive an hour later.

Everyone is very nice and the exams are very quick and thorough. I have purchased glasses through them before and haven't been disappointed with their service but their provider takes a little while to ship the glasses. There are also multiple locations that withyou can utilize with varying selections of glasses as well.

Punctual and Professional. Every experience I have ever had here has been great from the front desk to technicians and of course the Doctors. I highly recommend Sewickley Eye Group. Your eyes are too important not too give them a try.
