Everybody was amazing at their job here. Their customer service was second to none, the pricing was almost exactly what I was expecting. Alex took care of my every need and made me feel very comfortable with the whole process. And lastly Dr. Walker performed a painless and smooth lasik operation. Very pleased, highly recommend.
