Our Patient Reviews

I booked my appointment last minute, the morning of my visit, and I was so happy they were able to fit me in. It had been quite a while since my last eye exam, and Dr. Ma was incredibly kind and took the time to explain everything clearly. The office is clean and well organized, and the front reception staff were very friendly. Overall, it was a really great experience. Thank you for taking the time to make me feel comfortable and informed. All set for my Meta glasses with prescription!
