The wait was fairly brief & I was given lots of help collecting multiple frames to choose from so my power chair didn’t get in the way in the smaller office. They listened well to all my needs & color preferences before selecting options for me. What might have taken me half an hour to select from alone was successfully dwindled down to less than 15 minutes. I recommend Dr. Palmer since he stay up on newer technology & always makes sure you don’t have any questions left before he ends the appointment. I never feel alone in my eye care! Everyone is incredibly nice & helpful too!

I've lived here four years and wish I found this place sooner. Very professional yet treat you like family. If you don't have an optometrist, go here! You won't be disappointed!

Dr. Palmer and his staff are very friendly and helpful. I appreciated him going the extra mile to make sure my eyes are well taken care of. His state of the art imaging software is both interesting and useful. It's great to have such knowledgeable and friendly service in our little town. Grateful that the best is also convenient. Thank you!

Super friendly! Seemed like they had all the up-to-date technology. Doctor was very patient, gave lots of explanations in detail, and most importantly tailored my glasses and contacts to my activities to what I need professionally plus my personal Endeavors of photography. They also worked great with my insurance company.

I have gone to Nipomo Optometry for several
years now. I feel the care I get there is top notch. Dr Palmer takes time to explain and show me what he sees on my tests and answer my questions. His office staff is great also. Price options are presented if glasses or contacts are needed. Very happy with my contact lenses.
