I was very pleased with my experience with Dr. Winchester and her office staff. Dr. Winchester really listened to me and answered all of my questions clearly. I felt she was very knowledgeable and gave me great care.

From the moment I entered the clinic lobby, I was personally welcomed by the patient services coordinator, checked my insurance, confirmed my appointments and within 5 minutes I was in an exam room with the TECH doing some initial evaluations getting me ready for my appointment with Dr. Winchester.

Dr. Winchester did a complete medicine and supplement review and reviewed my medical surgery experiences since my last Eye Exam and Refraction. I left Dr. WInchester's office knowing that I had been thoroughly and properly checked out, and given a new prescription that was so minor in changes, that we both decided that new glasses were not needed at this time.

I recommend Dr. Winchester wholeheartedly.



welcoming staff I've ever dealt with. They are so warm and professional, and make the whole experience that much better. I've been to one or two places that had a really bad smell. I was worried I would encounter it here too but I didn't notice anything. Their equipment was very advanced and sophisticated. I was very impressed.
