The office is just a factory to make money: no personal approach, no explanations, quick in and out if you don't look like needing major work...

I was very appreciative to be seen on short notice since I had a problem. Very happy with Dr Gewirtz. Quickly diagnosed my problem and explained it in detail to me.

I would not see Dr. Gewirtz again or any Dr. at that office. The staff is unprofessional and very lazy, it took forever to get checked in due to the staff talking and laughing. The nurse who took me to exam room needs to learn proper grammar,"where you be from" was the way this person spoke. The Dr. spent maybe 5 minutes with me the nurse did most of the work. Dr. Gewirtz knows very little about contacts and contact lens person Gina is rude. I won't return.

Dr Gewirtz was extremely thorough. He discussed my diagnosis with me so I understood what was going on and how we were going to treat it. Very happy with my care!
