  1. Really like the professional staff and doctors. Love that they are somewhat smaller than some other groups I’ve visited in the past. They were very accomodating by getting both my son and I in on the same day I requested an appointment.

  2. Talia knows my style!! Her and the entire staff are always friendly, always courteous, and the Shoppe always have unique picks that suit my style. Love Optical Shoppe

  12. Called to make an appointment to be seen over an eye concern. I was transfer to 3 different people and had to explain what was going on each time. The third person said they were going to talk to the doctor and she hung up on me.

  13. Receptionist was engaged in a very lengthy personal conversation with someone she checked in. I stood so long the other patients where looking like they could not believe it either. When you are standing there for 15 min after arriving on time it is ridiculous.

My past ophthalmologist (retired now) was nice but the practice was so large I felt like one of the herd. Can’t praise Southside Eye Care enough.
