Excellent second visit to this practice. Receptionist was welcoming. Exam tech came for me almost immediately. She was very thorough, professional, and friendly. Great tech! Doctor was waiting for me as soon as the tech was finished. She was just as wonderful. All great people. Glad I chose this facility.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts.My husband was in need of an urgent eye appt and we were scheduled right away even though he was a new patient. Faheed was welcoming and attentive while he examined his eyes; we had such a great experience-we will be choosing this practice for all of our eye care going forward. First impressions matter.
Response from the ownerOur practice is committed to providing quality eye care and appreciates feedback. We strive to accommodate urgent needs promptly and ensure that our team provides welcoming and attentive service. We look forward to continuing to serve the community's eye care needs.The staff and doctor were excellent. This was my first time with them and they were efficient and very personable. All of my previous experiences with eye doctors have usually taken 1-2 hours. I was in and out in less than an hour. Now I did get told that may not always be the case but I was extremely pleased with my visit and highly recommend them.

Response from the ownerThank you for the positive feedback! Our team is dedicated to providing personable and straightforward care. We appreciate your kind words and are committed to maintaining high standards of service.It’s my first time going to the Glastonbury solinsky location I was 15 minutes late (traffic) the receptionist at the front desk was excellent great customer service. Instead of turning me away for being late she worked something out for me and I get to see the doctor it was so wonderful I would recommend anyone to go to that location.
Response from the ownerWe appreciate the positive feedback regarding the customer service at our Glastonbury location. Our team is dedicated to accommodating scheduling needs whenever possible. Thank you for recommending our location to others.We love going to Solinsky! I take 2 of my children there and they are also so wonderful and accommodating! Shout out to the Newington office, which is primarily where we go for appointments. My son recently got contacts and the people in the West Hartford office were very helpful and patient with teaching him how to wear them and take care of them. Highly recommend!!
