Im a new patient. And I appreciated the laid back, yet professional feel I got during both of the appointments I've had so far. Office Staff were very attentive and provided excellent customer service in a friendly and efficient manner. I was also very impressed with Dr. Thompson's thorough and proactive approach. During my initial exam there were a couple of concerns identified. And so as a precaution did a two week follow-up to rule out any potential changes indicating any troubling progression. I also appreciated that Dr. Thompson took time to understand the symptoms I was describing, answer my questions, and identify/explain a treatment plan going forward. For me, finding a new provider can provoke a lot of anxiety around not knowing if it will be a good fit and whether or not I feel confident about the provider's knowledge and ability to address and care for my needs. And im relieved to say I believe i made a good choice. And I would have no problem recommending these guys to my friends and family!!

I had a terrific experience at Westrum Optometry! I was seen for a full eye exam and new glasses. It had been quite some time since my last eye exam and I definitely needed to have my eyes checked for several reasons. Dr. Westrum, Brisa and Carmen took the time to listen, explain all the information clearly and answer my questions. Brisa kindly informed me about all the tests and images she was taking, which was great to know. Dr. Westrum tested my eyes and explained everything in detail about my overall eye health and needs. Carmen was also awesome in taking all the proper measurements and helping me with my final choice for first pair of glasses despite my indecisiveness :) Thank you again for staying open a bit late and accommodating my schedule for later in the day appointment. I highly recommend this optometrist and his wonderful team to anyone looking for exceptional eye care all around.

I am so glad that I found this place. Dr. Westrum and the entire staff at Westrum Optometry are awesome! The location is super convenient, and their office is very modern with a cozy touch. I had an appointment at 11:10 AM and was out of there by 11:45 AM. They respect your time while also being very thorough with their exams. Quintessential professionals.

Dr. Westrum's careful evaluations with modern equipment make me feel like I'm always getting top notch healthcare and I love picking out a new pair of glasses. Fantastic!!
