This is the worse experience I have ever had for an eye exam. I was just wanting a contact exam and he wanted the records from my previous exam ?? Now it is 7 months later and I still have not got a new prescription and they tell me to come back for another contact fitting and another charge. Why, I had a fitting and no script. This is unethical. I would never recommend this doctor to anyone. I just wanted a routine eye exam and new script, nothing out of the ordinary!

My whole family has been to Dr. Lewis and we could not be more pleased. Started when my daughter was a toddler and now she is 21 years old. He treated us well then and has continued for the past 18 years.

Got the feeling he was just going through the motions. Assistant roughly handled me and yet he (doctor) said nothing. When I called to complain, no one called back.

The office wait was just a few minutes, but it took a few weeks to get the appointment. My daughter's lazy eye is better. The doctor and staff were great.
