Dr Karim is very knowledgeable, attentive, thorough, and has a great bedside manner. He told me things about my eye that no other doctor has told me. He is very patient, answered all my questions, and I never felt rushed. He is also great with kids and overall a kind individual. One of the best experiences I have ever had with a doctor.

He took the time to explain everything in a way that was easy to understand—even a child could follow along. He is truly phenomenal and made me feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire visit.
Michael was also wonderful. He was very determined to help me find a frame that I genuinely liked and that fit me well. He was patient, attentive, and never pushy, which I really appreciated. Overall, a fantastic experience from start to finish!
