First time wearing contacts. Could not get one out of my eye. It's Christmas Eve, I'm hurting, been crying. I go get Sunglasses to cover eyes thinking it going to be 4 days before I can get it out. See Dr Brush and Mrs Brush at the store asked him if he had plungers for contacts he said yes. Dr.Brush and his wife were kind enough to open up his office on Christmas Eve night to help me. This is the difference between a small town Doctor vs major cities. Always there for you 24/7. Even if they don't have to be. Thank You Dr. & Mrs. Brush
Dr. Brush and his wife Linda are wonderful people! Dr. Brush went out his way to explain exactly what was going on with my eyes and vision. His wife was an incredible help as I tried to choose the right glasses. She not only found the perfect ones for me but also gave me a case that matched in my fav color of green. The other people who work there are also kind. Of the eye doctors offices I have been to, this has been by far my favorite. I left with an understanding of what was going on with my vision and some pretty cool green glasses. Highly recommended!!! :)
