"Dr. Meehan provided me with an excellent eye exam, was very knowledgeable and offered reasonable options for cataract surgery. Zachariah provided an excellent pre-exam and has wonderful personality! A great team!"
— Eye Health Vision patient review"I've been a patient of Dr. Reis for many years. She always listens to my concerns and she takes her time to thoroughly explain what is going on with my vision. She has a special gift in how she relates to others."
— Eye Health Vision patient review"And that’s about it, zero personality, she was rude, abrupt and insulting. I imagine she’s an awesome surgeon, but her demeanor was awful. Coupled with a 45 minute wait with no explanation why…. I wasn’t impressed at all"
