Such a wonderful place. So clean and peaceful inside. Everyone was so sweet and professional. Dr.Bingham was such a funny Doctor. This was my first visit and I would recommend any family and friends here. Dr.Bingham makes sure you are comfortable and answers any questions you have. He doesn’t second guess his option he knows his material. He made sure to have the best chose and understood my past experiences with contact. He actually listens and looks at what works for you and what doesn’t. Such a wonderful place. I’m glad I chose to become a patient here. Wonderful staff and Doctor

Staff is always super sweet and welcoming! You can sometimes go to doctor appointments whether it be general physician or eye doctor or wherever and the staff doesn’t always seem to love their job so they aren’t welcoming and quite short in response to you- but never this place- I’ve been a patient for three years. Dr Ballard, he’s one of a kind and takes the time to explain things and ISNT rushing you out the door like most places!

*UPDATE* this review is 8 yrs old and Ballard is still the best optometrist!! ========== My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Ballard for about 2 years and he and his staff are fantastic. Kind, thorough, patient, helpful, trustworthy, funny. The equipment is state of the art and unintrusive, the office is SUPER clean, the frame choices are fashionable and wont break the bank.. and may I add that he is the only Dr. that was able to get me to near perfect 20/20 vision in glasses AND contacts!! From the moment you walk into the office you are immediately comfortable with your surroundings. I can sit here all day and go down the list of positive things about the Dr and his Staff and not have any negatives to include. I'll never go to another Optometrist and I tell everyone about Ballard Vision. Stop wasting your time with other Dr's in other places. The search stops here.

I have great faith in Dr. Ballard and his team in the care of my eyes. I will say that there is always a wait time before actually having the exam. That's the only reason I gave a 4 star review.
