Patient Reviews
May 19, 2022
Con: took longer than I expected to see Dr. Pickrell. I suspect they may have been a little over-booked the day I went in. Pro: once engaged, Dr Pickrell did a thorough job and was very patient and pleasant, and exhibited what seemed to me to be great expertise while we worked to get the prescription just right. Another theory I have about why the visit went long is that maybe Dr. Pickrell doesn't cut corners and spends the time necessary to do things right. I'd rather have it right than "right now", when it comes to my eye care. As far as I could determine, the staff (including Dr. P) practiced standard covid-era safety protocols.
