Mad River Eye Care is a truly patient-centered practice. From the front desk to the doctors, everyone is focused on providing the best possible care. Judy the front desk receptionist is an excellent communicator, patient and kind. Judy demonstrated excellent customer service while prioritizing the needs of the patient offering flexibility with a cheerful attitude. Lenny our Optometric Technician, was efficient and friendly. The technical expertise he showed along with providing direct patient care and educating the patient was unparalleled. Dr. Morgan McClintic is very thorough with her exams. She provided excellent explanations that were clear and explained various options, spent extra time answering questions with ease and patience. Her passion for eye care and her rapport with her patients through conversation and humor allowed for a stress-free visit for the patient. Excellent service in the optical center. Danielle was such a pleasure to work with just adding to the 5-star experience. The optician was so patient and knowledgeable and recommended some brands to help me choose. I will be ordering some glasses soon.

Dr Mitchell and his staff are absolutely wonderful and professional. Went in for an eye exam and a new prescription. The office is very clean , well lit and inviting . Everyone including the receptionist are so friendly, kind and patient. Very advanced technology in this office . Dr Mitchell was patient , thorough and went above and beyond to make sure my prescription was accurate. He answered all my questions and made me feel very comfortable with the eye exam . I would definitely recommend anyone to to this office for your vision needs . I'd even go as far as to say this was the best experience I've ever had at an optometrist office. So glad to be a new patient.

Mad River Eye Care for the win!! What an amazing customer service experience I had today with this group. We are in town visiting and my daughter’s shipment of contacts was delayed. I called Mad River Eye Care and within an hour we had a new supply of contacts. They really saved the day and were such a pleasure to work with. 10 out of 10 experience for this team + Dr. Mitchell. Thank you!!

A terrific office! Nice people, very modern and up to date equipment and Dr. Mitchell is superb! Explains everything thoroughly and understandably. Wish they weren’t an hour away! But it’s worth the trip.
