Was recommended to come by here this evening after an ER visit for some eye troubles that could have been a result from a fall. ER told me Dr. Glenn would be in at the office until 8:30 and to go there immediately after the ER visit. I went by Digby and got there around 8:20. Doors were locked, nobody answered, tried calling and got an automated message. So I went home. I get a call from Dr. Glenn asking if I was coming by. I explained the situation and said I had already left and was home now. Dr. Glenn was very rude and condescending arguing with me over the phone. Said, condescendingly my appointment

I visited Digby Eye Associates for the first time recently. I am extremely happy with my experience! Jordan and Amber gave an excellent first impression helping me with directions while I was driving. Dr. Patel and her assistants gave me the best eye exam that I have ever had. She also had me to come back in to double check how I was doing with my contacts before ordering. Cheryl that works with patients and their contacts was so patient with me and made me feel like a pro after spending time with me. Linda that works with the eyeglass frames was also patient and so very helpful with my frame choice

I am grateful for the team at this practice. They have taken incredible care of my eyes over many years. They take time with the patients to answer all questions and they truly listen to what the patient has to say from the exam to picking out new frames. I recently decided to order sunglasses with readers in them. WHO KNEW you could do that! I am excited to be able to read on the beach while protecting my eyes! They also offered me a package deal on the frames I selected for my prescription readers. I am looking forward to receiving them!

We went to Digby eye center twice because my wife was still not seeing well with her new prescription eyeglasses . We were told both times that the prescription was correct. We were also told in both visits that my wife did not have cataracts. This caused my wife deep concern because her eyesight was very blurry. We decided to get a second opinion at Shapiro eye care and with a half an hour my wife was told she had cataracts in both eyes the cause of her poor vision . It had been only two months prior that we were told she did not have this issue at Digby eye care. Very disappointing would not
