Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very Thorough
Dr. Callahan was thorough and found out that my previous exam at a competitor used aa video exam. I had been wearing the wrong glasses and contacts for a year. He made sure my prescription was correct. Thanks to him and his staff!

Eye check
He was kinda quiet or I talked a lot. The staff was super nice got me right in. I was worried about my eye they said come in. I love a medical office that cares if you’re worried.

staff were great. went to get contact lenses. when its time to put on the contacts, told him that I have previously worn contact lenses. It’s been years so I needed a little time to put them on.. In a few minutes I have put on the right contact. I was surprised when he came back, grabbed my eyes open and tried to smack the other one in. Ofcourse I shut my eyes and pull back. He also told me to not put contact solution in the lens (put dry contacts on eyes?) He was impatient and rude..

I have been very pleased with the eye exam services of Dr. Callahan. He’s very thorough and has friendly office staff. His eye exam fee is most reasonable for the high level of care.

First the lady on the phone was rude when I called and asked for an appointment. Then when I arrived at the office, the same lady, her name is Shay was very curt and unhelpful to a new patient. Shay is also the person who did a test, and blew air in my eyes. She never explained the procedure or gave any instructions, as to what she was going to do. I was very surprised by the air. After my wait Dr. Callahan came in very rude and uninterested in my response to his questions!!
