Have you ever had something in your eye that you can't get out? If so you know how desperate you're to get it out. I called Dr. Douglas's office the day after I got a peace of metal in my eye. I made the call at 8:00am. I was told that they would see me at 9:00am. The same day, So I showed up and was happy to have The metal removed from my eye. He was very friendly, informative and professional. I have found my new eye doctor.

I love Dr. Myers and his office. It is a long exam but it's because he is so thorough. If you want a quick look see and then just get your contacts or glasses, maybe you won't like him as much as me, but I worked for an optometrist before and I was so impressed with everything Dr Myers does in the exam. He is so knowledgeable and takes his time explaining things. There is a reason everyone I know, goes to him. He's the BEST!

I really liked Dr.Myers. That being said, my initial appointment took almost two hours. I did have a full work up and my eyes dialted. They wanted to see me for a follow up in three months which I scheduled. They assured me it would be a much quicker appointment as I'd already had my initial work up. After waiting more than 45 minutes I asked the receptionist how long it might be as I had another appointment to go to (I scheduled it for 1.5 hours after my 'follow up' assuming this would be plenty of time). I was told the Dr. would not be able to see and complete my exam in the time

Have been seeing Dr. Meyers for almost 39 years. Best eye doctor, hands down. Staff is friendly and helpful. Wouldn't go to anyone else.

Dr. Myers is my family doctor. He takes time to tell you everything that is going on with your vision. The staff helped me pick the perfect pair of glasses and they had a big selection of frames to choose from.

I have seen Dr. Myers for years, he has always been helpful and caring and takes the time to help figure out any eye issues. My husband had a metal shaving get into his eye (it was stuck in like a splinter) and Dr. Myers was able to pull it out without causing any damage to my husband's eye.

Due to insurance I was not able to see Dr. Myers for a couple of years and those were the worst! I was so happy to finally get back to seeing him. I refer my friends when I know they are looking for an eye doctor.

I came to see Dr. Myers based on a referral. When making a regular check up appointment, do expect to be seen in 6+ weeks. It also seems like they are in-network with some insurances, one of them is mine. The reason for my 4 stars is because I actually had a good experience with them. My old glasses were lost and I was unable to find them, I called them and told them my situation. They were very nice and understanding, they got me in within days! I called on a Thurs and they got me in that following Tues. I went and did have like a 25 min wait, no big deal, they squeezed me in without being an

Dr. Myers has been my eye doctor for a number of years now and I've always had a pleasant experience. He genuinely cares about me and the health of my eyes. He's very thorough and gives an excellent explanation of what's going on with your eyes. I would recommend him to anyone that needs an eye doctor.
