I have been coming to see Dr. Poirier here for 16 years. He is excellent, and has always taken the time to not just check my vision, but to maintain my eye health. My eyes have changed with age and diabetes, but all of the wonderful staff here have kept my vision as great as ever!

This was my 1st visit to this office. Everyone was very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. They talked me through a few issues I'd been having that most would just brush off and was super helpful in getting me what I need. I highly recommend Dr. P and his staff to get you what you need.
