"Dr. Edwards is so considerate of my needs! She listens very carefully to my concerns and ensures that I am educated about all my options. She is friendly and kind, making sure I am comfortable at each appointment. Cathy in the optical shop is the best! She goes above and beyond to ensure my glasses fit perfectly. She is thorough when fitting my glasses and I appreciate that she always gets it right the first time, so I don't have to experience any discomfort with my glasses or return for adjustments."
