Poor communication, responses were delay, lack of organization throughout the visit. I hope this feedback encourages improvements in service and patient communication.
20/20 was not only my vision 24 hours after surgery, but also the expertise, skill, and service of Dr. Brissette and her professional team. Dr. Brissette had infinite patience with the plethora of questions I had as a high risk patient planning the surgery. Her answers were insightful and informative. She inspires such confidence. Each colleague I met in her office or at the surgery location was professional, kind, and helpful. Thus, my experience has been outstanding to date.
Dr Brissette is treating me for recurrent corneal erosion. It is a pleasure to go there, easy to book an appointment and never waited, always greeted with smile and profesionalism by the staff and nurses. DR Brissette helped throught this streesfull condition and I am seeing a lot of progress. The LipiFlow had a big impact on the condition of both eyes. the condition has resolve completely on one eye but she has to do further treatment on the second on which the erosion episodes were more severe. I am seeing the end of it and I know I am in good hands.
Dr. Brissette performed ICL surgery to correct my vision in April 2025. She was efficient, precise, and extremely professional. She did an excellent job and my vision is clear with no complications. I had my procedure done the second week of April and it went very smoothly. I only spent about 20 minutes in the operating room. In that time, Dr. Brissette organized the lenses she was going to insert, coordinated her staff to prepare my eyes for surgery, and prepared for the surgery in a calming and efficient manner. The actual procedure was very quick, a few minutes per eye. I was awake but felt no pain or pressure or even discomfort--it seemed like the lights in the room went kaleidescope for a few moments and then it was done. The second eye was very similar. I went in for a post-op procedure the next day with Dr. Brissette, and again she was prompt, efficient, and professional. I had to reschedule that day but she was very accommodating, and answered all of the questions I had about my eyes. It's been about 3 weeks since the procedure, and my vision is clear and I've had no complications. Overall an excellent experience and done by a remarkable doctor.
I am amazed at how my vision has improved! I began wearing glasses when I was 12 and now see better than ever. I am deeply grateful to Dr Brissette for her work and amazed at the technology she has mastered. I recommend her wholeheartedly!
My review will sound like a paid advertisement. Dr Brissette used the Avi I Ty lens to replace my carat and by the same night I could see clearly and read without readers. The next day was as good and I couldn’t be happier.
Dr. Brissette was amazing to work with. She’s very polite and extremely knowledgeable in her practice and made my visits very simple. Would absolutely recommend her for dry eye and cosmetic treatments.
I recently had cataract surgery with Dr Ashley Brissette was fantastic! I would recommend her to anyone needing cataract surgery. She has great bedside manner and made me feel comfortable and well-informed of my treatment options. The surgery went extremely well. I had a great experience and my eyesight is better than it has been in 20+ years. This has been life-changing and I am thoroughly enjoying my new vision. I would recommend this practice to anyone needing cataract surgery.
Dr. Brissette is leaving for maternity for a long time. It was no point to come for this appointment. I wish I knew about it earlier.
Response from the ownerHello. Dr. Brissette is not on maternity leave and will not be on maternity leave.
