Dr Peter Violette and his staff are great. Get your next exam and eye glasses from the Optical house. You won't be disappointed.

Updated review as they have done a very good job getting the prescription in my sunglasses right.

We had our yearly eye check somewhere else last year. Since…read morewe moved to the new town we were planing to find something new. I am quite happy we found this one. Compare to the one before, this place is much better and more professional every way. I called multiple place and ask them whether they accept my insurance, this place was very friendly on the phone and checked our information through their system quickly and told me they can do it. One other place was asking me to call my insurance place myself and check. Both the doctor and the nurse are very professional and very nice and pleasant to talk to. The forms we fill in when we first walked in were very clear so we could know the cost and some services we can choose. My husband will go again for contact lens fitting in a few days(85$ here), If there is any update I will post it here again.

I have a very complicated prescription. On my first visit my exam was rushed. My follow up for my…read morecontact lens trial was with a different provider. The lenses didn't work. She made an adjustment. I picked up the second trial a week later. I did not try them in the office this time. I took them home they also did not work. I called to make an appointment with the original provider who wouldn't be able to see me for a month. They suggested a third provider. I was disappointed with the lack of consistency of my care. I felt there wasn't an appreciation of my complicated prescription or a willingness to work with me to find a solution.

This is a practice that takes care of you through and through! I had been a patient of my former…read moreoptometrist of 10 years, but my insurance changed and I was unfortunately not within that network. I was skeptical to find a new doctor and establish a new relationship. When I made my first call to schedule an appointment, a kind lady, Lori, was there to assist every step from benefit coverages to limitations. Those are the bedside manners that I highly value. Today, I met Dr. McHale and I am thoroughly impressed. He's very down to earth, mild-mannered and explains in detail of all your eyes' health and needs. He directs you in the right path of correcting your vision. He's one of a kind. Typically when I think of most doctors who's been in their practice for a while, I have noticed a certain type of pompousness. This guy was none of that. It was a great experience and great first visit. I can't recommend his practice enough.

Very disappointed w/ my last 2 visits . Dr McHale tries to…read morecome across as caring but he does not listen well as he juggles more than 1 guest at a time . His communication (both written and oral$ is extremely lacking in clarity. He talks in terms he assumes I understand and when I tell him I don't , he gets easily annoyed. He actually hung up on me when I continued to share my frustration and ask more questions. He changed my eye glass and my contact prescription and both are incorrect . My vision is blurry wearing the contacts and I can not read anything with the glasses on and yet he will not take ownership of this problem . His responses are so uncaring and leave me so frustrated . I would not recommend him .
