    … I found Dr. Hinkley through a random search and took the plunge. The result is that she is awesome!! In fact, she and her staff (Penny and Mae--I could be spelling her name wrong!?) are amazing women too.
    They have a nice selection of frames and sunglasses. None of that awkward cheap stuff you see at other mass market chain shops.
    She has everything from designers like Marc Jacobs to Kate Spade to more indie type brands. … She also was incredible in helping me manage my allergies this season. I described some symptoms and she recommended eye wipes and OTC eye drops with antihistamines that have made a huge difference.

    It easy to get an appointment and you never feel pressured or ignored here. …

    If you're in the market for an optometrist I can't recommend Dr.Hinkley enough.

    This place is great they are so helpful and always on top of everything. They actually take time to help you choose glasses that you will enjoy and that will compliment your face. Always call and keep you updated about orders and can usually answer any questions over the phone.

    Dr. Hinkley is outstanding. She and her staff are so personable, yet remain professional. … She and her assistant were both very helpful in picking the right glasses for my face. And Dr. Hinkley will give it to you straight as far as your vision goes. … Honestly, Dr. Hinkley is the kind of Dr. you immediately mourn losing upon visiting - the way you do when your favorite Dr. moves, retires, etc. But hopefully I won't be facing that prospect any time soon. …

    This Optometry is the best always able to schedule you in a time manor fashion. Been with this Optometry over 12 years. I can't imagine going to another Optometrist.
