Love, love, love Dr. Kurtin and his staff! I completely trust Dr. Kurtin with my eyes?which speaks volumes?they are the windows to your soul?sorry ? former English teacher here. However, I digress; he is an incredibly thorough and knowledgeable doctor with a wonderful disposition. As far as his staff?wonderful! I would let Miriam pick out a pair of glasses for me without my even so much as looking at them! She instinctively knows what flatters an individual?s face and is very current on cutting edge trends. She even once had an eyewear rep. meet with me to show me frames! They have never once forgotten to ask about my husband or three year old daughter and are a genuinely caring, concerned and attentive office. His staff that does the initial examination is bubbly and fun ? just a great experience overall. It is rare to find a competent doctor who actually has a personality and a pleasant staff to boot!
Pros: Knowledgeable doctor, informed staff
Cons: n/a

Dr. Kurtin and his staff are wonderful to work with. It is hard for me to get contacts that work well for me but Dr. Kurtin lets me try several types before I have to make my decision. This is so helpful because some brands of contacts are more like an investment when it comes to getting the right ones for my special eye needs. Mariam works in the eye glasses department and is so helpful and knowledgable when he comes to lenses and frames. No matter how many times I stop by to look at frames or get adjustments, I am always welcomed by my first name as I walk in the door. Everyone there is fantastic!
Pros: They work hard to make the customer happy
Cons: None

My family has been patients with Dr. Kurtin for many years - i believe over 6 years. Dr. Kurtin and Staff have always paid close attention to details and very helpful helpful when picking out frames. My elementary age daughter has difficultly with keeping her frames straight - sometimes we have been in Dr. Kurtin's office once a week getting adjustments. Dr. Kurtin is a great doctor and the staff is exceptional. Go see him!!
Pros: Take Time with patient
Cons: n/a

Dr Kurtin is a real find. I have a condition called keratoconus. My original eye doctor had told me that I would soon need a corneal transplant. So I decided to look around. Dr Kurtin had so many more options for me. I now have better vision then I ever thought possible and real hope for my future. He cares a lot and it shows. His staff is also very kind and professional. I would definitely recommend him to anyone I know.
Pros: very thorough and caring
Cons: no Sat appointments

I'm very difficult to fit for contacts and been all over, I never had vision that I think it should be. I found dr kurtin on a search- Unbelievable-- he ordered a pair of sample of lenses for me to try. I'm not kidding, this was the best lenses I have had-- his nurse was great too, really helpful and very professional.
Pros: best eye exam I've had
Cons: could not get a saturday appointment

Just wanted you to know that I traveled a far distance to see this doctor after reading these reviews. I never had an exam and was worried about having to wear eyeglasses. My vision was always better than most people I met and I could see way out in the distance before anyone else. When I no longer could see close up, I bought magnifiers at CVS and they worked for a while but my vision was still getting worse. Like most doctors I have been to, I expected it to be quick and get a prescription and be on my way. The doctor found that my vision was getting worse because of my sugar was probably being high, which I later found out to be true with my family doctor. I would have given him 3 stars because they did not take my HMO insurance when I thought they said they did and it was a long drive. They wanted me to write this too and tell other people about them, which was fine with me. I think the doctor saved my vision and my family doctor said it was a good thing.
Pros: Very thorough

I don't usually believe many blogs and ratings from the internet. I needed to find a really good place for an eye exam and be fitted for these special torik contact lenses, my doctor in Frisco just could never get my vision sharp. My obgyn recommended dr kurtin, this is her doctor. I was a little nervous about going, but once I saw the place and talked with staff, it was a great big relief! Very modern, very high tech, I could not believe how different this place was compared to the guy I was seeing in Frisco. Dr Kurtin fit me in these one-day lenses for astigmatism, I was totally impressed with how clear my vision is. I just had to share this super place and tell you this is a doctor with real talent-- I told some people at church, and little did I know many of them already go here. Funny how you an live in a place so long and never realize what been there...

I found this place from my insurance list and it was a welcomed surprise! I was used to retail type of doctors and optical centers. The difference is amazing in the quality of care, knowledge and overall treatment. Everyone there was friendly and they guy that sells glasses was very helpful. The assistant that takes you back before you see the doctor is as sweet as she is hot! The selection of glasses isn't as much as retail places but it's all top quality and name brands. I know I'll be back!
Pros: cool aquarium and coffee machine. Great Staff
Cons: ran late

I hated to go somewhere else when my insurance changed. I had been going to chainstores and thought not about it, until my appointment with Kurtin Eye Center. Never did I realize any difference between chain doctors, who always took my insurance, and a real doctor that offices with a bunch of other doctor types-- I never did notice know this place was next to my kids Pediatrician's office all these years. All I can say is the quality care is so much better, the staff treated me in sincerely caring manner, the doctor himself was very hip and up to date (and very very handsome) , and seemed to have all the time in the world for me, maybe that is why he ran late with me.
Pros: Great place for children exams
Cons: Bring work, may be late running

I had been going to Dr Kurtin for a few years back in the 90s. I went to another doctor after because I was tired of paying more for something I thought was the same everywhere. After my stint going there, I was now tired of the hustle of that doctor and now she is gone and don't know where she went, just disappeared, with my records. There is a lot to be said when I returned back to Dr Kurtin recently. He had expanded into a larger building, more gizmos to test for all kinds of things and a real nice staff. I thought he would be even more money since all the niceties, but after 12 years his fees are still about the same! I just need to give it up and stop being cheap as I really need better care with doctors like Kurtin, even if he doesn't take my insurance.
