My examination was thorough and once I received my new glasses, the prescription Dr. Shotwell determined for me was right on. Her husband, and optician, Michael, was very helpful and took a lot of time with me in deciding the correct frame for my face and how my lenses should perform for my particular prescription. I have gone to other sources in the past to "save money" on frames and lenses, but what it really comes down to is you get what you pay for in the end. I am very happy with the glasses made for me and with Michael's suggestions, I can honestly say these are the best and most comfortable glasses I have had in a very long time! You will not find a friendlier or better place for your eye care. I highly recommend Dr. Shotwell, I have become a patient for life.

Dr. David Mendelblatt so severely misdiagnosed my wife she nearly went blind. She went to him in…read moreMay 2016 because the vision in her left eye was cloudy. He said she had floaters & it should clear up in a while. She didn't think it was floaters but hey, he's the doctor, right? Six months later, in November 2016 the vision in her left eye deteriorated to the point it was like looking through a tunnel with a small light at the end. She went back to him & he said her floaters had gotten worse & that a cataract that was a #1 in May had gotten a little bigger. He performed NO tests. No pictures, no field vision test, no nothing. She knew something was wrong but she didn't know what so she insisted on a macular degeneration test which was, of course, negative because that's not what the problem was. Two months later, as her vision continued to deteriorate, a neighbor recommended she go to St. Luke's. At St. Luke's she was examined on 2/1/17 by Dr. Katherine Flynn, who after a very extensive examination, with numerous tests, told her there was nothing wrong with her eye & she could find no reason why she couldn't see out of it. She then referred her to Dr Geoffery Kwitko, a neural ophthalmologist. One week later on 2/8/17 he found the reason she was losing her sight. She had a pituitary cyst pressing on her optical nerve. After a MRI on 2/22/17 & another field vision test, he told her she was also losing vision in her right eye & without surgery she would be blind in three months. He referred her to neurosurgeon Dr. Lucy Love whom we met with on 3/8/17. She was fast tracked for surgery & was operated on 3/20/17. Since her surgery she has recovered, by God's good graces, most, if not all the vision in her left eye. We are eternally grateful to St. Luke's, Dr. Katherine Flynn, Dr. Geoffery Kwitko & Dr. Lucy Love for their dedication, their expertise & their persistence in correctly diagnosing & treating my wife's eye condition. Dr. Mendelblatt should be grateful to them as well because if she didn't recover her eyesight I would be sitting in a lawyers office on Monday. If you are a patient of Dr. David Mendelblatt I suggest you run, not walk, run very fast & very far away from him. 2 Share

I was a little surprised since she seemed to be struggling seeing the TV 10 ft away, but what did I know. I sent my husband since he hadn't been to an eye doctor in years and they told him his prescription was the same so he got new glasses and contacts (he has been wearing both almost his entire life). He really seemed to be struggling to see with the glasses and refused to wear the contacts since they were so off but he refused to go back to get them fixed. I brought my daughter back since there still seemed to be an issue and they bumped the prescription from -.5 to a -.75. I was a little put off when they gave my daughter her eye exam, she'd be squinting and get the letters wrong and the tech would say "close enough." After that last appointment I brought her to a different optometrist and she was -2.25 in one eye and -2.75 in the other! My husband then went to the new optometrist and his vision had also declined significantly. I would absolutely never recommend Sorkin based off 3 different experiences with them.
