Dr. Levine, a thank-you for the thorough eye exam and the prescription glasses. Although the vision in the left eye with the detached retina cannot be corrected, I am seeing so much better than before. I no longer use my reading glasses--the new progressive lenses work much better than the reading glasses. My eyes no longer get tired as rapidly, the double vision has decreased (nonexistent last week at the theatre--even in the mezzanine!) and details in general are sharper. And, the frames look and fit great! So glad I made the switch to your office.

With much appreciation,

Dr. John is the best Optometrist I have ever had! I met Dr. John through a referral network and was very impressed with his passion for his work and overall knowledge of both Behavioral issues in younger people, and scope of his practice. He did a presentation at a meeting that left me so impressed that when my own eye exam came due, I booked both myself and my husband when our insurance allowed our next exam.

I knew from reputation and from comments from other members of my referral network that Dr. John was special in both his people skills and extensive knowledge of the eye and related issues, but I had no idea that he would be the very best doctor I had ever been to. I've been wearing glasses for over 15 years, have had annual/bi-annual exams in years past, but Dr. John blew me away. In fact, he was so marvelous, that upon learning I was to relocate out of the area, I made sure I could have a final appointment with him to insure my eye's safety until I established a relationship with a new doctor. Dr. John also took the time to refer me to someone as close to his credentials. I will miss the professionalism and friendliness of Dr. John and his staff.

Invest in the best! Dr. John is well worth the investment in your eyes or those of your family.

Good Morning Dr. John,

I wanted to thank you again for your expert correction of my vision. Today is a great day, everything worked perfectly overnight (CRT) and my distance vision was crystal clear in both eyes this AM.

Overall, I am amazed at not having to wear glasses/contacts to get around and wanted to thank you again.

See you in February and have a great summer!

Regards,

First of all, you are BOTH exceptional doctors and you put people (whether customers or not) first. You listen with patience and open-mindedness, you give the person a level of comfort and your confidence is part – but trust is the other.

Paul helped my friend Pat G. the other day immensely. Pat just turned 80. Well, not only did Paul listen, and then ask questions which showed his grasp of the actual vision problem – but he put Pat at ease. Paul recommended a practitioner near where she lives (Mansfield) and she was so thrilled – she called me back – crying. It was an act of kindness and listening which is rare these days. Then she walked to the doctor that Dr. Paul suggested and made an appointment. She saw him, and said he was as nice and helpful as Dr. Paul indicated he might be.

So, thank you sincerely – the network and referrals, and friendship continue to develop and strengthen!

“Dear Dr. John, Thank you for the three months of helping me and being a good friend. I miss you so much! I can’t wait to see you again! You are so nice and funny! Kids that come to see you are very lucky!” – Susan, age 9

“Dear Dr. John, Thank you for helping me with my eyesight!” – Liz, age 8

“Dr. John, Vision therapy really helped me this year. Even though it was a lot of work. I am now a better reader. Vision therapy also helped me be better at all my sports. I got a great base hit the other day! Thank you for everything. You’re a great teacher.” – Brian, age 8

“I spent several months doing behavioral optometry, and it has made a drastic change in my life. Before I spent time doing this, I had headaches when reading and I just could not focus for long on something that changed position. I was a little skeptical at first, but when I started progressing in schoolwork and in sports I realized something was changing the way I could concentrate. It had to be the optometry, and it was a staggering change. Now I can read for hours and hours and never have a headache. I can focus on rapidly moving balls and shifting players, and am excelling in school, all because I was taught how to focus with both my eyes.” – Adam R., age 15

“Dear Dr. Levine, Having seen a number of different optometrists all over the country, I wanted to make sure you and your office received well-deserved kudos for the brilliant service you provide. Having just move to the greater Boston area, I sought a reference to an eye doctor from my colleagues. You came highly recommended. I was very pleasantly surprised when my visit to Vision Care Specialists exceeded even the high expectations which had been set. Your office staff is very personable and professional. I think this must surely be a reflection of your own personality and goals, as evidenced during my examination and follow-up visits with you. Although your office is busy, I clearly had your undivided attention for as long as I wanted. You went way overboard compared to other practices I have used to really understand my current eye health. More than that, you pushed to understand my lifestyle and therefore customized your recommendation for vision correction to best match me, rather than just a prescription and out the door. I have since highly recommended you to other new hires in my company and will continue to do so. They have all been highly satisfied with you and Vision Care Specialists. Please extend my thanks to the rest of your office.” - Terry B.
