This place is amazing. I have been struggling with dry eyes and I previously went to another office where they actually got my RX incorrect and hadn't offered any suggestions on how to fix my dry eyes. My first visit was pleasant. They were quick but very thorough. The doctor listened to all of my concerns and addressed every one of them. My eyes are no longer dry and I am very happy with the care both me and my husband and I received here.

Dr. Whaley is extremely knowledgeable and proficient. I have had doctors from a teaching hospital ask who fit me for contacts because I have numerous eye issues and Dr. Whaley did such an outstanding job getting me the most vision possible, they wanted to know who had done such a great job. She is always kind and never makes me feel rushed. Her staff is great too.

As a first time patient of Dr. Whaley’s I was overly impressed with both her and staff; a mix of friendliness and professionalism. Having been on a journey to restore my life to as normal and manageable as possible; I am completely grateful to have found an optometrist that provided the custom care I needed. Her knowledge, diagnosis, and treatment were all spot on.

Dr. Strickland was amazing! She answered all my questions and her energy made me feel welcomed and truly cared for. I was a patient at America's Best previously, but transferred to The Tallahassee Eye Center because they had better appointment availabilities. My whole experience was great. They were very accommodating and fast. Their office is beautiful and clean, it honestly felt like a day at the spa! It was my first time getting fitted for contact lenses and the staff was very patient with me and helped me to learn how to put the on and take them off. Will always be coming back to this place!!
