Outstanding service as usual. I’m particularly impressed with the first class professionalism and dedication, as demonstrated by the optometrist Mr Andrew MacDonald.

My Daughter had an appointment at the Fishponds Branch on 27th May. Firstly I received no reminder call of the appointment which I was advised I would. I tried to call the branch to confirm the appointment but there was no answer.
My Daughter was not given a copy of her prescription and there was very minor interaction.
Aidan on the other hand was absolutely amazing as always.

I had a hearing appointment at scrivens at hamstead branch with the audiologist Mohammed Abdali and he was very patient and informative about my hearing test. It was my first time having one and I felt very comfortable with him and I got an instant report with clear information about my test. I would recommend coming here for hearing tests.

I’ve been visiting the Broadstone branch for eye tests and new glasses for a few years. Always very professional friendly service! Even tho I am a very fussy customer they always make sure my prescription and glasses frames are just as I need. They can’t keep all frames in stock but were happy to order in my requests. The girls on the shop floor are always very welcoming - thank you all! I’ll be back soon :)

Wonderful staff, so very helpful. My mum is 92 and they treated her with great respect and understanding. The glasses and frames are excellent quality and help her life life to the full.
