Jeremy Ensor, OD

I wear glass bottle bottom lenses. Seriously, my lenses are pretty crazy thick. For that reason, I am very diligent about seeing my optometrist. I was lucky to have Dr. Ensor as my optometrist when I moved up to this area and he’s been my optometrist ever since.
Such a lovely bedside manner. It’s like talking to a friend about my eyes. I’ll always laugh when he seemed nervous to tell me about my upcoming Big 4 – 0 bday and how my eye sight would start to change. «Now, please don’t want to hit me when I bring up your upcoming birthday…»
I’ve brought my son to him and he was also fantastic with him.
I definitely recommend him. Eye health is important!

I can’t say enough great things about Dr. Ensor. He’s patient, knowledgable, and completely cares wholeheartedly. The best doctor I’ve ever been to. He’s great!

Dr. Ensor explains everything well and does very thorough exams, especially if you have specific concerns or family history of problems. I needed dilation but he said I could come back on the weekend if I didn’t want to have to go to work with dilated pupils! No extra charge for splitting my appointment over two days. He and everyone in the office is quite warm friendly. They’ve readjusted my glasses that got a little warped over time, and also fixed some badly fitted prescription sunglasses I got elsewhere a few years ago that I never used because they’d hurt one of my ears. They carry a variety of stylish frames.

If you need an optometrist, look no further. Dr. Ensor and his staff were awesome. Dr. Ensor made sure he explained everything and was very patient during the exam. Sophia was super friendly and made the frame choosing part fun. They accept VSP insurance. They also have the option to pay once you pick up the glasses. Can’t wait to get my glasses!

Can’t say enough about Dr. Ensor and his office staff. Their focus on my family’s health and well-​being is amazing, plus their patience with choosing and fitting new glasses abounds! Thanks!

Stopped in at 6:58pm to see if my girlfriend’s 5yr old Cavalli sunglasses could be repaired. Jeremy worked his magic and got the glasses back in working order. Last customer on the spot repair with a smile. 5 stars for sure!

Dr. Ensor is very thorough. He listens carefully and is very detail oriented, both in his examination and his documentation. He has a warm and friendly personality and the staff member up front was very helpful as well.

Dr. Ensor is great. All aspects of my interface with the visit were friendly and professional. He will even help you pick out new frames. Lafayette has some businesses that can come off as snotty, this is not one of them.

I had a great experience! Dr. Ensor was very thorough and I am loving my glasses. I have never had a more perfect prescription — he spent the time trying to get it right.

This is a very communicative and thorough doctor. He really takes the time to listen and take ocular histories. Nice, easy-​going personable fellow. Office is nice and intimate. Well-​appointed and convenient. Not cramped and not too busy to get personalized attention or get an appointment. Also open to emailing if patient has a problem. Diagnostic skills seem good.

Dr. Ensor is AWESOME!!! Very patient, caring and gentle. He takes his time and you never feel rushed! He’s very good with his patients — even big cry babies like me. I’ve been going to him for years — NO complaints and I’m a picky person. He’s even good with little ones. My girls love him! Yes the office is small but I love that! It’s way more personal than a big office with lots of staff and a doctor that is just rushing to get to the next patient. I definitely recommend him to anyone.

I became a patient of Dr. Herb Monroe when he was a solo practitioner in Berkeley, and then followed him when he relocated his practice to Lafayette in the ’70’s. Dr. Jeremy Ensor joined the practice a few years ago, following Dr. Monroe’s long search for a colleague who would meet his expectations for quality of care and customer service. My eye exam this week was the third I have received from Dr. Ensor since he joined the practice, and I continue to be very, very pleased with his care.
His exam is both unhurried and very thorough; he inquires about one’s general health and solicits information about a variety of factors that may have a bearing on eye health, such as co-​existing medical conditions, prescription medications, and environmental irritants. He provides detailed explanations to any questions you have while in his office, and encourages you to email him if any questions arise after you leave.
He has a vast array of frames from which to choose, and is very skilled in helping to select frames that are both becoming and suit your personal style.
Dr. Ensor is skilled, warm, gentle, and extremely conscientious — everything you want a professional caregiver to be. I enthusiastically recommend him.

Dr. Ensor is hands-​down the best eye doctor I have ever seen. He is smart, careful, thorough, and takes the time needed to explain all aspects of your eye healthcare.
Moreover, I had a confusing insurance mix-​up, and his very capable and friendly office manager took the time to help me sort it out, resulting in full reimbursement.
The availability of frames is fabulous, and the entire experience is what one ought to get in every medical care setting.

Thorough. Prompt. Friendly. Good selection of frames and you leave with a prescription in hand in case you want to buy contacts or glasses independently. Works for me!

As others have stated this is a GREAT place for an eye exam and to purchase glasses! I have seen several different optometrists over the last 15 years and Dr. Ensor is by far the best! His manner and abilities are exemplary. His staff is super professional and knowledgeable too.

Having worked in healthcare for years, I tend to spend quite a bit of time researching my options for a new provider. I chose Dr. Ensor after having poured over reviews from multiple online sources. He lives us to his 5-​star rating!
An hour of time with the doctor (in any field) is basically unheard of but I never felt rushed throughout any of my appointment. I was considering switching from inconsistently worn glasses to contacts but was wary of making the jump. He explained my options in detail and was patient with my many questions. Dr. Ensor has potential, new contact wearers «practice» for a week before making a decision. Best thing I could have done b/​c I decided contacts weren’t for me, just yet. In the end, he even helped me pick out new frames by explaining what the different styles and looks say about you to others. I ended up going with the frames he recommended (which I wouldn’t have picked on my own) and I get compliments frequently.
Nobody likes taking time off work and their busy life for an annual check-​up at the doctor’s office. Dr. Ensor is friendly and makes the whole process easy, painless, quick and worthwhile. Go see him.

Outstanding service, focus, and attention. Just had my first visit with Dr. Ensor. He spent a focused hour plus with me for my initial eye exam. He was very thorough and made sure I understood the results. He talked through the pros and cons of different types of lenses and their costs. He was knowledgeable and helpful regarding insurance. He was friendly, easy to talk to, and insisted I call or email him if I had any questions.
It really was ‘as good as it gets’.

Top notch service. I’ve been wearing contacts for over 36 years and Dr. Ensor is the most gentle, efficient optometrist I’ve worked with. His staff is right there with him as well. Thanks.

After my insurance coveraged changed and I could no longer go to my fantastic Dr Baker, I found Dr Ensor through Unilocal and couldn’t be happier.
I concur with the previous reviews — Dr Ensor is incredibly caring and thorough.
If I could rank him higher than 5 stars, I certainly would.

Simply the best eye doctor I’ve ever been to!
Dr. Ensor is so different than those larger optometry departments where your concerns are squeezed into 30 minute appointment blocks and you’re left wondering whether you should try for a follow-​up appointment or go for a second opinion somewhere else.
Dr. Ensor sat down with me and not only gave a thorough professional eye examination, but answered all my questions and gave his recommendations for contact lens and glasses prescriptions. I felt relieved and at ease to have someone take the time to fully cover all my concerns.
Dr. Ensor is a fully trained, professional, caring optometrist. 5 out of 5 stars.
