Dr. Wallace was very personal. He took time to understand my concerns, was genuinely trying to troubleshoot the causes of my eye irritations and helped me feel confident in his exam and understanding of all things optometrics. He was also comedic in the process which put me at ease. His genuine interest and explanations demonstrated how much his profession brings him joy. The relationships he has with his staff was also one of friendships and not of a superior. I think that alone speaks volumes of a person of such stature. Great atmosphere, great people. I've found my new optometrist.

I had an appointment with Dr Fred Wallace for my annual Eye exam. I was checked in and Lindsey did the Eye scan, took my BP, went over my medical history and directed me to the exam room. Dr Wallace came in, did the routine visual acuity test, discussed my previous visit and conducted a thorough exam. Dr Wallace and his staff are always welcoming, friendly, and very helpful and professional. See you next year. RWP
