Frisch Michael OD

Skilled and caring eye doctor with a friendly and helpful staff. Small but well-​equipped office.

I cannot say enough great things about this office and practitioner. The whole office gives the best service and their passion for what they do is tangible to all those who walk through their doors. Dr. Frisch is such a gift to us all! We have been going to this office for over 3 years now, and Dr. Frisch is SO good natured, genuine, funny, and he just has a way with the kids as well as adults. He makes it enjoyable. And there’s nothing he wouldn’t do to make you feel comfortable, understand his findings, take additional pictures or procedures if useful or wanted, get toys for the kids himself even, anything.
On a more serious note, he caught a partially dettached retina which surprised me as I was without symptoms and I’m only in my 40s. My now retinal specialist was also impressed. I am so grateful I have such a thorough optometrist who not only has the skill, he takes whatever time is necessary, has the most advanced equipment, and follows up every step of the way. He truly cares about each person and I couldn’t recommend him more highly. He is unlike any other optometrist or practitioner I’ve encountered. This office was recommended to us when we moved here by friends and we have been beyond grateful, day one.
As a side note, after reading a few of the posted comments: Andrew and Andrew («Drew») are wonderful new additions who represent the positive and passionate nature of Dr. Frisch, along with the young, knowledgeable lady who has been there for as long as I can remember. Great team. Don’t be fooled by the strip mall location and relatively plain façade — it shows really nice inside.

Found this place on Unilocal and went in for a routine check up. Doctor is great he made me feel at ease and was very knowledgeable and explained things to me very well. He made me laugh at times and the male (I beleive his name was Ian) who works in the front was very nice and helpful. Everything they used was up to date which is great because they didn’t have to refer me any place else (had that happen a bunch of times). There was «add ons» as another Unilocaler had mentioned in his review, which was kind of ridiculous. Sure if I went some place else it would of cost me much less, but can’t complain on the service they provided and the help I received for my eyes!

I have been a patient of Dr. Frisch for over 15 years and it’s been that long because I love his manner, as does my family, and I really enjoy the personalized service that I receive. The staff knows me by name, and they will clean my glasses and make adjustments for free as needed.
I did deduct one star because the doctor forces any contact lens wearer to submit to a yearly eye topography exam. I always did the exam anyway, but I do not like the fact that it is now required in order to receive a contact lens prescription. In the doctor’s defense, it is now required because of the number of his patients who are long-​term contact lens wearers who have unknowingly developed eye issues that could have been mitigated through early detection.

Good experience. Good people working the front. Good doctor. No complaints.

This eye doctor is simply adorable. I usually couldn’t care less, as long as I was getting good service; but my kids (13 and 10), think he’s great. He takes his time, and makes you feel very at ease. He is quite knowledgeable and his equipment is very up to date. They missed 5 stars because of his front office staff. As per some of the posts below, the girls are quite rude and disrespectful to the patients. On one occasion, the receptionist continued to crack her gum the entire time I was making an appointment. Told the Dr that time, and they now have a male receptionist who is quite nice.

Dr Frisch and his team got the job done — not to say it didn’t take me a while to figure out exactly what day and/​or time they are open… that was confusing… but once that was all figured out — my second annual visit to him was great. He is honestly so into each patient, it’s awesome. That’s probably why it takes a while to see him. Once we had a few back and forths on what pair was best for me… I did two sample runs… I called to order the lenses. The phone etiquette of one of the gals was pretty poor and I felt like I was annoying her. a small mix up with the lenses and a lecture about how the Dr is way to busy to answer my question, but once THAT was straightened out — all was great. Got my lenses, picked out frames with her help and she was great. All in all 0 love this place! Can’t wait to get and actually wear my glasses.

I had a horrible experience with the girls at the front desk. They are rude and not very helpful. I scheduled an appointment 1 month in advance and even called the day before to make sure I was good to go. Took the day off to make it to my appointment; only to find out an hour before my appointment that they no longer take my insurance. This was the second time they didn’t let me know. The first time was about 30 minutes before my appointment. I did like the Dr. But the girls at the front desk have to go. If you don’t like your job, get a new one!

I’ve been going to Dr. Frisch for about seven years. His staff is absolutely incredible — they are attentive, pleasant and thorough. Dr. Frisch is a dream — he is extremely caring, concerned and takes his time with each examination. I have quite honestly never met a doctor with a more approachable demeanor. His facilities are always clean, his equipment new, and the experience is always impeccable. Dr. Frisch and team are absolutely amazing. HIghly, HIGHLY recommended.

Highly recommend Dr. Frisch — very professional, skilled, friendly, with up to date technology and great variety of frames. Treated well with every visit.

I walked in and the ladies working the desk seem distant and mannequin like. The Doc is a small quirky man, but i felt at ease. I got a price list of services, and in the end, there were «add ons». Half way through the eye testing, i was informed that there were required state tests, and added charges to the original quote. I was very dissatisfied with the overall experience.
