Brad Flickinger is the only eye doctor around who made improvements in my daughter's vision. She has a rare condition that no one else saw potential to improve. We love this facility.

Had an appt w dr Alfa today. The worst experience in my whole life. Tried to ask questions but he cut us right off. I walked out of that office shaking like I wanted to kill someone. So if looking for a dr I recommend not to go to him

Be sure when making an appointment that you ask them if you need a referral from your primary care. They never told me and would not give me my appointment. My doctor was out to lunch or I would have called. Bad customer service if you ask me

Great surgeons....Jordans, Bolands.....convenient....I know quite a few people who had their LASIK done there ....and they now offer laser cataract surgery I believe. Highly recommended.
