I had a great experience today at The Eye Site. Dr. Rowley gave me a very thorough eye health exam.... She took the time to answer all of my questions and gave me some options regarding my contact lenses. The staff was very thorough and friendly. I highly recommend this office!

See Dr. Nielson. Don't wait. Just go. He, his staff and the facility are fantastic. Completely prof... essional from start to finish. I cannot recommend The Eye Site stronger than this, by far the best in the Treasure Valley.
