I just left Fox Chase Family Eye Care and I must say this practice is beyond amazing. First let me say that the office was very inviting, clean, big and a one stop shop for us busy moms! I save the best for last, the entire staff are amazing from the second you walk in you are warmly greeted by the receptionist, who was very polite.Each staff member from Amber the technician who was very polite and awesome with both my kids, to Dr. Schechter who took the time to explain and educate me as a parent on eye health, with additional resources. Lastly Tyler was great! He was very personable and polite, both my kids appreciated his help in choosing their frames. Overall excellent service, great staff and inviting atmosphere. You won't be disappointed!
