Christopher C.5/13/2021I've been a customer at Vision Source for many years! The staff are so efficient and friendly. Dr. Dawn Wattenhofer is amazing, thorough and very personable. They have a fabulous selection of frames and contacts too. What more could I ask for?
Tammy S.3/11/2021I've been with Dr Dawn since 2008, I followed thru her changes & I have been very happy with her all the way! She is very caring & very through. I have been to 1 other eye doctor & I was not very happy with them, I came back!
Carol M.9/20/2021After the first start of therapy my daughters reading level went up 3 reading levels. She had more confidence in her reading abilities. That alone made her very happy. The therapy has also helped with her anxiety and has helped her open up to people. The girls that work with her are amazing.
megan e.6/07/2021Drs. Jared and Dawn are fantastic! They have state-of-the art technology and equipment to accurately detect and inform your vision needs. Their staff are wonderful, professional and easy to work with. I've never worn glasses before and they patiently help guide me to perfect choices for my style and face shape. I highly recommend them!!
