Oh my this place is busy. When I first walked in, the receptionist asked me which Dr. I was seeing. I told her Dr. Himmel and she very nicely directed me to his reception area. While I was walking there I must have walked by at least 5 to 7 or so other reception areas specializing in other eye issues. Once I arrived at Dr. Himmel's reception area the receptionist had me sign in and then fill out forms because I was a new patient. Then I waited for about 10 minutes and a tech walked me to an examination room where the tech did a bunch of prelim examinations. His name was Shannon and he was very polite, professional, courteous and kind. Once finished I waited 10 more minutes in the lobby and then met with Dr. Himmel in another examination room. He gave my eye a very good looking over and listened to what I had to say and then recommended an eye scraping. I had opaque cells sitting over my cornea or something like that. So I agreed and thankfully I was able to have it done 2 days later and didn't have to wait a few weeks. It is an out patient procedure done at Lovelace. The folks there were very professional and the actual procedure itself was quick, painless and in a way pretty mind blowing if you know what they do and how its done. The results have been great! I can now see clearly 20.20 with glasses out of that eye. It is no longer opaque and blurry. I thank you Dr. Himmel for doing a great job in cleaning up and repairing my cornea on my eye. You are a blessing and so is this procedure for those who have similar issues with their eye. THANK YOU! I highly recommend EYE ASSOCIATES and DR. HIMMEL! I will come back again if need be.

I love Doctor Durso. He is the best you can get and does his job well. FYI he is there to work and for the best interest of my child, don't be upset if you don't go after your appointment for drinks. Haha

I have been treated by the physician's at Eye Associates for several years and, as a retired medical professional, can say that this practice is the best in its field. Their techs are well-trained, knowledgeable, and always exhibit a high degree of professionalism. Their physicians, particularly Dr. Robert Melendez, are courteous and truly care about the well-being of their patients. I would have no reservations whatsoever in recommending this practice to anyone needing emergency or routine eye care.

Eye exam, discovered cataracts in both of my eyes, I was then referred to Dr. M. Ritsma eye surgeon in ABQ, which by the way is also very thorough.I had both eyes done within about 2 months time and have had at least 4 trips up to ABQ. for surgery and two followups after surgery, then numerous follow up trips to this local facility I am happy with this convenience. I have found them to give "excellent care" to me and to my husband. You will find that you have to wait at any "eye facility" if you want "excellent caring doctor's". I highly recommend Eye Associates for you eye care.

Really the best place to go for any sort of eye problem. They can do everything from fitting glasses to putting your eyeball back in. The doctors are the best you will find from Dallas to Los Angeles.
