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.

Informative, compassionate and precise
Dr Heffler was very clear in explaining my condition. Was helpful in walking me through testing.

In and out, didn't take the time
Dr. Heffler was quick to check my site, didn't fully listen, and assumed she knew what I was going to ask before I'd complete my sentence. She interrupted with her canned answer she clearly supplies to everyone only for me (more than once) to say that's not what I was asking. She may be a quality doctor, but it definitely felt like a factory line, shoved through, on to the next. Simply another fact on a sheet of paper to diagnose and collect money.

Dr. Heffler was easy to understand as she did explain all of my questions. The most important question was my ability to wear contacts and she showed me my eye exam computer pictures so I would fully understand what she said.

Sara is a great eye doctor
Didn't wait long at all and Sara was great, gave a quick prognosis and walked us to the door, which was nice. Great at connecting with patients and very a capable doctor.

Superbly competent O.D. who truly cares about her patients. Sara takes the time necessary during examinations to ensure a thorough and accurate diagnosis of your eye health needs. No other optometrist in the Longmont area is even comparable to her knowledge, skills and chair-side manner.
