Our family has been going to Dr. Altman for over 10 years, and we couldn’t be happier with the care and experience we’ve received. He is always attentive, takes the time to listen, and never makes us feel rushed. Every appointment feels personal, and it’s clear that he genuinely cares about his patients and their eye health. His staff is always warm, welcoming, and friendly, which makes every visit a pleasant experience from start to finish. We truly appreciate the consistent, compassionate care our family has received over the years. We recommend University Eye Care to everyone we can. He and his staff are truly wonderful!

This practice is phenomenal. I can’t say enough about Dr. Altman..never rushed, extremely thorough and takes the time to clearly explain things. The entire staff are so nice and welcoming. Forget the big box optometrists..this the best place around.

Highly recommend. Grateful for Dr. Altman; he’s a knowledgeable and experienced eye doctor who will help you take care of your eye health. Also grateful to all the staff who make it a good experience to go there, get my eye exam, and get new glasses! They are great at selecting the best eye glasses that work with your prescription and are attractive. And I’ve always been delighted with the vision correction, never any problems in many years of being a patient/customer at University Eye Care.

Even though I walked in there with a voucher from the Lions club, they treated me as if I were a paying customer with dignity and respect and professionalism that outshines the average. I would highly recommend this company to anybody that is in need of an eye appointment for glasses

I love University Eye care! I’ve been going there for years. The staff is friendly and professional. I’m a cash pay customer and Dr. Altman has always taken really good care of me. he has literally opened the store for me on a holiday Because I had something in my eye. And the manager Danielle will go above and beyond for her customers. I would recommend them to anyone!
