The staff was very comforting. David Harris was all business. You can tell he likes to sharpen skills. The day of the surgery he was very comforting and encouraging. I needed it! Glen also made me feel reassured I would be comfortable. I can only hope that the students get a glance of what they did first hand. When 100% better than I imagined. Looking forward to the outcome. Why I was referred to him is clear to me!

Dr. Taylor is an exceptional doctor! She takes time to answer any questions and explains everything in detail that she is checking and finds. I was a patient of Dr. Ange most of my life. He could not had anyone better to take over his patients. Dr. Taylor is amazing. I am grateful for her being my doctor now.

Dr. Caylor was very professional, extremely knowledgeable, was able to explain and answer any questions I had. Had great recommendations for help take the strain off my eyes and a good eye drop for my allergies. Definitely made the right decision by switching to this office.

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Harris and his great staff! Caring compassionate care all around. Dr. Harris eased my anxiety about my cataracts. His confidence and calming demeanor were so much appreciated. It gave me total trust. His staff was amazing too. One of my best experiences in a long time in a professionally run practice that was both friendly and warm when places seem so robotic! Would totally recommend their office.

Finally an eye doctor that takes the time to explain things well! Dr. Mia Taylor is thorough and compassionate. I feel like she does an excellent job on the exam. I also love that they will do the refraction and eye exam at the same time. Another large eye group required two appointments and co-pays.
