Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Just came from seeing Dr. Gayer; he's a fantastic optometrist! I will be trusting my vision to him for years to come. The Staff is great, Kjersten (hope I spelled her name correctly!) was wonderful and thorough! I can highly recommend Dr Gayer and Ungricht Eye Associates!

I have been going to Optometrists since I was 5 years old. Dr. Gayer is the newest one I have visited. He is very friendly, knowledgeable and thorough. I enjoy the exams I have had and always leave with my vision improved.

Overall, very pleased with the service, ease of scheduling and getting my eyes checked. The front office staff is very friendly, especially Brenda! Optical employees were helpful and gave their honest opinion with different frames. Dr. Gayer did a great job of explaining my exam to me and any questions I had. He really listens and takes the time when I've had appointments. (even when there are other patients waiting) I would highly recommend seeing Dr. Gayer!

Ungricht Parker Eye Associates is completely dishonest office and their only goal is to charge you as much as possible. At my appointment I was charged almost $400.00 because they conveniently omitted the option I had to order my contacts through my insurance. When I called and wanted to return the unused and unopened contacts because if their dishonest sales tactics I was told too bad. DO NOT BECOME A PATIENT HERE UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE TAKEN FOR ALL OF YOUR MONEY!
