Dr. Jamie Marcolin is great! She is always very thorough to examine my eyes and vision. She asks questions to make sure nothing gets unnoticed and she also explains what she is checking/doing. Technically she is amazingly competent and she is always very professional while at the same time kind and caring. She answers any question I might have no matter how stupid or simple it might be. Her staff is also polite and professional. it has been about 5 years since I have had Dr. Jamie, and I will not change unless I move too far away. :-! I highly recommend her practice!

Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Doctor took her time to ensure I was both comfortable during the exam and to ensure I understood what each part of the exam entailed and the full diagnosis for my eyes. Additionally, I was given the time and opinions necessary in order to find a great pair of glasses that fit well, look good, and serve their purpose. I highly recommend this eye care center!

My family has been coming to Clinton Family Eyecare for many years. I was in last week for my annual examination and was very pleased with the precautions they are taking. Everyone is going the extra mile to keep patients safe and keeping themselves safe too! I continue to recommend them to anyone in the area needing an eye examination.
