Stuart Kaplan is a great optometrist and a genuinely nice guy. Great service every time.
Dr Kaplan was very kind, listened to my issues & helped to resolve the problems I was having. I would definitely refer a friend or family member to him. I feel the thing that makes him different then the other doctors is his concern & compassion for the patient & the willingness to help. He is an asset to Tyson Eye.
Always the best! Friendly and professional.
Eye exam was very comprehensive.
Wonderful personality. I felt you really listen to me and he is following up with your retinologist just as a precaution.
