The people here are wonderful and make you feel very comfortable and calm. I don't enjoy going to any kind of doctor but these young women that helped me were absolutely fabulous. I recommend this office to anyone that has any nervous feelings about going to see the eye doctor or any doctor. Five stars isn't enough I will continue to use them from now on.

I had my first appointment yesterday. I was impressed from the minute I went in. It is a very nice building inside and out. The receptionist was very sweet and friendly. I did not wait long to start my appointment. The girl who helped do testing also was friendly and accommodating. The Doctor Patel, was thorough and explained everything, asking if I had any questions. I felt very cared for there. Thank you for all you did to make my upcoming cataract surgery not a scary thing!

I truly had the best experience. The provider and staff members that assisted me are so kind and INCREDIBLE at their jobs. I was nervous the day of for my procedure but everyone made me feel so at ease. Everything they did was so personal. The procedure itself, I am at a loss for words. I went in not being able to see anything even if it was 6 inches from my face to now 20/20 vision. The staff and doctor were so professional and kind. I recommend them to everyone

What an Exemplary Team! My daughters appointment was pleasant and efficient from start to finish. Every department had their own specialty, and you could tell they love what they do. We never felt rushed, and got all our questions answered. I even called later, to ask questions and get clarity on the prescription. Jamie took her time to answer all my questions.at 4:55pm. Kudos!

Dr. Oliva and his staff are seriously the best! They are extremely knowledgeable and kind. I was surprised at how quickly they were able to help solve a problem I have been facing for years. Their examinations are very thorough. During my procedure I felt like I was in great hands and that put me at ease. Highly recommend!

I stopped into the Optometrist shop to have my lenses removed from the frames and reinserted as they were opposite to what they were supposed to be. That's a long story. It was not due to anything that the Medical Eye Center had done. Anyway, I was promptly attended to, and my glasses were returned to me clean and ready to use. Then I asked if the attendant could also replace the nose pads on my back up pair of glasses. She did that with a smile. I was a happy camper, finished and out of there in less than 20 minutes. Great Service.
