I recommend Rutkowsky eye care if you are searching for a good place to get glasses. My new prescription and glasses are much better now than what I had before. Candace was very understanding about helping me with my glasses frames even though I couldn't decide right away. The other staff members were all really pleasant and helpful. The office itself is very clean and organized.
I had been a patient of this practice for some time with no problems but after my last visits with them I would never go there again. They messed up my prescriptions three different times, they were combative, and uncooperative and after four months I still didn't have a pair of glasses I could wear. I finally got frustrated and went to a different optometrist who got my prescription right on the first try. Go somewhere else if you want a professional experience!
I have been a patient of Dr Rutkowsky for many years. I can assure he and his office staff are the BEST of the Best. The Dr. Is wonderful, very knowledgeable, nice, and patient. He takes time to do everything carefully and does not rush you or anyone like other offices. He takes care of you and answer all your questions. I feel very fortunate to have his service and recommend him to everyone.
Had a emergency appointment for an eye irritation. Got there at 3:30pm and was out by 4:15pm. Nice and Quick. Not as expensive as I was expecting. The doctor was very nice and quick and gave me some recommendations for my allergies that are already helping. Highly recommend.
I wish I found Dr. Rutkowsky’s office sooner! The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and the office is really clean. The doctor exceeded my expectations! He was kind and he actually listened to what I was saying. Dr. Rutkowsky - thank you.
