Terrible,terrible,terrible! Took my son here 2 years ago and just found out his eye problem could have been corrected with a referral. Went to another children’s eye doctor with way better service and attention. The doctor seemed annoyed we were there even when she told us to come back in 3 months. Please don’t bring your children here if you want good eye care.
