Definitely would recommends for friends and family members.
Dr. Bruce Nguyen and all of the staff at Clairemont Optometry are great at providing a very comprehensive eye exam in a friendly way.

The front desk receptionists are really kind and helpful and one had the patience to be really encouraging while I was trying to wear the contacts for the first time."
