5 Stars from Our Patients

Never had a Bad Experience

I’ve been going to this office for many years now and have never had a bad experience. Both of the doctors, as well as the staff, are super friendly and personable. Patty and Stacy are on top of the insurance details and always make what could be a confusing ordeal, feel very easy. They have invested in great technology to make for a smoother customer experience from appointment reminders, to check-in, to the actual eye exam. I highly recommend their services!

Quality Establishment

Dr. Zimmerman, Patty, and Stacy make it so easy to visit the eye doctor. Dr. Zimmerman is always very low-key and knowledgeable and Patty and Stacy are always helpful wrapping up appointments and fitting glasses and contacts. I always tell others this is a quality establishment.
