I came as a walk in so the waiting was long on that first visit but it was worth it, I saw Dr Gill & I was very pleased with how thorough he was as well as attentive to my questions & comments, the prices were fair for the type of treatment I received, on the second visit I came w an appointment so the waiting was I would say an appropriate waiting time, I was called back promptly when I called with questions & concerns between appointments, the staff was very pleasant & polite, all in all I would highly recommend this place, 👍🏼

Bay Area Vision has been a very pleasant place to get my eyeglass and contacts prescriptions and advice on eyewear. I especially want to thank Jessica for being so helpful. She took extra time to help me understand my vision needs. Dr. Walz also took plenty of time to be sure my prescription was as accurate as possible and I highly recommend Bay Area Vision for prescriptions for both eyeglasses and contact lenses.

Excellent place. Very professional and good doctors. Only downside I waited in the exam room for more than 30 minutes before the dr even came in. Other than that everything else was good. Also the tech took pics of inside the eye before being dialated. Should have waited till after. Either way all good.
