I have seen Dr Jong for years, her staff is professional and makes you feel at home. I had been contemplating trying contacts, now that we wear masks at work. Her staff made me feel at ease as I practiced trying on a pair of contacts. I'm proud to say that it was a success and I am happy I made the change.
