OUR PATIENTS SAY
We want to make sure you enjoy healthy, happy eyes for as long as possible.
I started having an issue with my eye and was getting a little nervous about it, so I walked in to this Visionworks location hoping I would be able to get it checked out….and I was! They fit me in and I felt I received a really thorough exam. The two staff members who helped me were so friendly and caring so I would like to thank Antoinette and Lynn. And a very special thank you to the care I received from Dr Benoit. She was amazing!
I had a great experience and the staff were great. I felt welcomed soon a I walked through the doors. The customer service was great and went above and beyond to make sure my needs were met. Glasses, contacts etc..
I’ve been going here for ten yrs! I wont go anywhere else. My favorite people when comes to my eye care!
