Great experience as a new patient. Very professional and thorough. Loved Dr. Bennett☺️
Dr. Bennett is easily one of the best optometrists I have had in my adult years. I have never received the level of care, precision, and attention to detail that she provided to me as an adult. She was able to identify my astigmatism and corrected it for me, which was a huge deal as it has been under corrected for many years. When I followed up with my yearly appointment, she remembered this detail about my eyes and took the time to see if I needed any adjustments. She is very kind, professional, funny, and really takes her time. This level of care is unmatched. I come all the way from Middletown just to see her and needless to say, I will be a patient for life! Thank you Dr. Bennett! 🤗🙌🏽🫶🏽
Friendly, kind and courteous service. Dr. Bennett was very thorough and answered all my questions without judgement.
Dr. Bennett is very thorough and they just remodeled the office and it looks great - everyone is so inviting and friendly - very professional and takes the time and you don’t feel rushed - I highly recommend
Truly great experience here!!! Very happy I found your practice. Thanks Dr. Bennett & team for great care. Today was my first appointment - they were able to get me in on short notice (lost my glasses in the ocean 🫠 + it's been several years since I've seen an eye doc). The staff were super friendly and totally didn't make me feel bad for it being a while since my last apt. Also, everyone was super understanding of me needing to respond to a message urgently in the middle of my apt, as I was on call! I was really stressing so I want to emphasize how much I appreciated that. I was here for a new patient appointment, glasses rx, and contacts rx - happy with all aspects of the appointment Office itself is very clean, cute, decent glasses selection. Dr. Bennett was very knowledgeable and you can tell she really cares for her patients. The staff were kind and professional. Felt well taken care of - they were busy but I was not rushed at all. I also believe this is an independent practice (which I LOVE to support). Overall, I was super happy with my first appointment and thrilled to have found a great doc in town. Thanks so much for a great experience!
Dr. Bennett was amazing! She was warm, kind, and knowledgeable. The staff were professional and welcoming. I'm glad that a last minute error on my last eye doctor's part lead me to searching for a new doctor and finding Stratford Eyecare Associates.
As always, I had a very good experience; the people who served me were all friendly and really appreciated it a lot.
Dr. was patient and explained everything she was doing. The staff was friendly, highly recommend.
