Very happy with the service I had at Nuview. They fit me in right away for a last minute appointment. The staff was friendly, professional, patient, and respectful. They answered all of my questions, volunteered the total costs right up front before the exam started, and offered me copies of my prescriptions for both contacts and eyeglasses in case I wanted to shop elsewhere for the best deals before committing to buying from them. When I considered buying contacts on site just before leaving, the staff even encouraged me to take my time, try out the new pair I had just been given for a day or so to see if I really liked them before committing to buying a year’s supply. Wow! Having dealt with some less honest optometrists in the past, some of whom threw in hidden charges, this honesty and respect was such a fantastic change. Kudos to the staff. There is a very nice selection of frames, and the office is clean and roomy. I also liked the fish tanks.
Dr. Shea is awesome. He is so friendly and upbeat. I could tell he really cared about helping me understand everything he was doing and what my options were. He answered tons of questions and took his time with me. Other pluses for the exam itself: he used a machine that does the glaucoma test without the unnerving *puff* that blows in your eye. He also used a new light machine (it looks like a light saber) that allows him to see deep into the eyes without needing to dilate the pupils. It all was super easy, efficient, and effective.
