"I was very pleased with the care that I received. Dr. McDowell was very careful to listed to what I needed and through in the exam. Julie Kunzeman took her time and made sure that my new glasses fit correctly."
— Patient Review, Birdeye"This office is over booked, and the office staff must be underpaid, because I have never been treated so rudely in all my life. Nothing but problems. Rude staff, unfriendly doctors, everyone is in a rush to get through your appointment and on to the next."
— Patient Review, Birdeye (Negative)"Each part of the visit, from the moment you walked in, to picking out your frames, had friendly and knowledgeable staff! Every step was explained and my questions were answered in terms I could understand."
