Always been greeted with kindness and a great smile. Best optical doctor ever, will see him until I retire from this area and even then i will try to come here to continue to receive his top of the line service. To be totally fair i have to also commend the girls upfront who greeting me and helping me with frame selection or whatever. they are wonderful as well and without them this office will not be able to function as smoothly as it does. Thank you all.
“Superb Service.....and more.”

I've been a patient here at Nassau for the past 10 years and every visit is always pleasant and warm. The staff is friendly and welcoming. My daughters are also patients and I wouldn't even think about bringing them elsewhere. They treat us like family and we really appreciate the help and honesty given during every visit. I highly recommend Nassau Optical!
