She listens, asks all the right questions and is relentless in getting you the best possible prescription to address even the most complex vision needs. She is on-time, thorough and professional. So glad I made the switch and have found a new eye care clinic that is just the right fit for me. Kaitlyn the intern is also excellent. Love being a patient where interns can learn from such an outstanding example of professionalism. And check out the hours!! Open till 7:30 a couple nights a week to accommodate busy people and families beyond the basic work day! What a rare gift that is. Make the switch. You will not be sorry.

I've had 4 eye surgeries at the Mayo Clinic, tons of tests at Mayo and have a fair understanding of…read moregood testing procedures. Dr Seyller is a perfectionist who will ask for retesting if there are any questions about the images she's looking at. She's very experienced, extremely bright and knowledgeable. And as a guy who likes to laugh often, Dr Seyller is fun. Elliot, Cody and all the staff are also excellent. I highly recommend St Croix Vision!

I have been a patient at Associated Eye Care for over 20 Years. Dr. Steven Lane has been my…read morephysician through many eye exams, LASIK surgery and cataract surgery. He is a dedicated doctor who is very experienced and knowledgeable. For my most recent appointment this week I saw Dr. Schwartz (spelling?). He was very thorough as well and explained things very clearly. He answered my questions and never seemed rushed. His manner was friendly and concerned. I have found the staff to be welcoming and friendly. The Stillwater office is beautiful. I highly recommend AEC (and have done so many times in the past. I know I'm in good hands with Dr. Lane and Dr. Schwartz. I would not hesitate for a second to recommend them.

The level of disrespect I encountered today is staggering. I've been an established patient here…read morefor some time, but after this experience, I will never step foot in this office again. I made an honest mistake and showed up for an appointment that wasn't on the books. When I realized my error, I simply asked to quickly schedule a new one. The woman at the desk told me, "Sure, but I need you to step aside so I can check out patients." Excuse me? There were two desk staff members present and only one patient waiting behind me. Instead of the second person helping me or the first person taking thirty seconds to look at a calendar, I was told to move out of the way like I was a disruption. I have never been treated so rudely in all my life. To be told to "step aside" at a business where I am a loyal patient is a slap in the face. They clearly have no regard for patient retention or basic manners. They have officially lost my business permanently. If you want to be respected as a patient, go elsewhere!

Great service and very likable people here. The general manager Alissa is a rare combination of down to earth yet professional, which was very refreshing to work with. They were eager to help and didn't make me feel like I was being burdensome despite my peculiar and complicated order. AND they put new temple arm covers on the two pairs of glasses I already owned for free! That was a very nice cherry on top. Had never been here before but will definitely go back. Frame selection is a bit smaller than most other places, at least what was on the wall... that's the only potential downside to this store that I can think of. But hey, then there is less choice-paralysis when there's a more defined selection of frames. I found the ones I wanted, so its got me thinking what's the point of a big selection if it includes a bunch of junk? Most of the frames that were there looked pretty nice to me. I'm a man so I can't speak for their selection of women's frames. Very great place worth checking out!
