Dr. Wilder has been my doctor since moving to Fairhope 5 years ago. I like that he is personable, patient and knowledgeable, and he takes the necessary time to explain procedures and diagnoses. His goal is to provide the best vision possible, and to my satisfaction. He provides free contact trial lenses for me to try until I am satisfied. I highly recommend Dr. Wilder.

My little 8 year old has always struggled going to the eye doctor for exams along with the eye drops. Dr. Wilder did an excellent job handling him and his nervousness/ silliness. We will start seeing him from now on. We truly appreciate his playful spirit while keeping it professional getting us answers for my little boy.
