As a NP, I thought everyone was very nice and thorough in explaining things, I wish the exam portion with the doctor went a little slower as felt rushed, but confident in the findings. Getting glasses thru Rueban was very helpful.Show more He was patient and knowledgeable. My ins was only partially available, so had to pay for a lot of expense. Costs were expensive even after discount, but hopefully the two pairs of glasses purchased will be well worth the price. They are needed daily use items! Thank you and overall a very good experience.
I was very happy with the exam, but when I took my daughters prescription to an optic store the prescription was not legible, I had to call next day and ask them to fax a legible one. That made me upset.

Friendly staff and great doctor.
Very nice, and professional
The final price was a sticker shock. I was not expecting the progressives to cost that much, but the experience in the office was good. The staff was nice and the doctor answered all of my questions.
Was quick
The experience was great. The staff was completely friendly and they did all kinds of tests for me to ensure my eyes were healthy. Was definitely worth it and would come back again.
Great service! Quick, efficient and thorough. Great staff

Fast and friendly service
I was very happy with the exam, but when I took my daughters prescription to an optic store the prescription was not legible, I had to call next day and ask them to fax a legible one. That made me upset.
I appreciated how flexible they were with my schedule.
