Saved time by pre-registering. The facility provides free parking. I was welcomed by a friendly receptionist; waited about five minutes then taken to an exam room by the Dr's assistant who was very nice, who did the basic stuff for about 15 minutes. Waited about 15 minutes for the Dr. The Dr.'s examination was about 10-15 minutes long Dr. answered all questions and explained. I was satisfied with my visit.Patient Submitted Review

Dr. T.K. Sarkissian took good care of my eyesight as a senior. When she finds some suspicious vision problems, she is more willing to further check my eye health with an advanced vision inspection machine to ensure that my eyes are in a normal state. With her professionalism in eye care, I believe I can count on her to keep my eyesight health for years to come.Patient Submitted Review
