I called this office in hopes that they could replace one of the lenses in my glasses that I had scratched because the office I purchased the glasses from no longer sell or service glasses. I felt stuck and wasn’t sure what to do. After some discussion it seemed best to go in for an exam and get new glasses since my insurance would cover them and it was only a few months before I was due for an exam. I was able to get an appointment the same day. The staff and doctors are very welcoming, friendly, and helpful. The doctor explained things clearly and even assisted with my frame selection. I will definitely be returning.

Love Dr. Sam. He doesn't look like it, but I have been seeing him for my vision for over 20 years. I'm a T1 Diabetic and he discovered I was going to need extra help with eye care before it because a huge issue. So essentially he saved my vision. 20/10 rating from me.
Dr. Sam is the absolute best there is!! He’s kind, caring and very knowledgeable. You will not find anyone better. Dr. Dave is also wonderful and Gloria will make sure everything is seamless. The staff is very welcoming and kind. I highly recommend Visioncare Specialists. Simply the best!
I normally never write reviews, but Vision Care Specialists deserves this! I just had my first eye exam, and the doctor and staff couldn’t be more helpful. Tremendous service! Can’t believe I only just found out about this place!
I have been a patient at the practice for a great number of years. Dr Sam and his entire team are incredible, providing the best care and attention to detail you could ever ask for. Highly recommend for all vision care needs.
