Dr’s and staff are polite, courteous, and very professional. Not to use an old cliché, but they do “treat you like family”. They go above and beyond to meet your needs. In fact, on Nextdoor Talega someone was seeking a good optometrist and I referred Griffin Optometry for reasons stated earlier. Others agreed posting outstanding reviews. The people have spoken!

This is literally the best staff I have ever had at a medical facility. My mom asks why I drive over an hour for my appointment, it’s that good. The front desk is always super friendly and personable. Dr.Patrick always remembers details from several years ago and is always in a chipper mood! John is also my favorite, best staff, best care, best optometry office I’ve ever had the pleasure of being in.

Denise is the best employee you have. She has helped me with frames for 20 years. I trust her she is personable she knows the merchandise. I went to the Telega store just to get her help. Prefer her over the downtown store I gave 10 stars to Denise Not impressed with the selection of frames. They look all the same and very expensive. Would rate the store a 2

Sep 3, 2020
Griffen Optometric has been my family's choice for eye care for the last 15 years. They provide quality care and genuine concern for their patients. The entire staff goes above and beyond for their patients. Glasses, contact lenses and sunglasses are perfect every time! I highly recommend Griffen Optometric in Talega.
Aug 31, 2020
The experience of becoming a new patient with Griffin Optometry was efficient and pain free. Cannot think of a way for improvement.
Aug 24, 2020
While the Optometrists here are always a pleasure, the business side is getting unbearable. This time, it was informing us AFTER the appointment that they were no longer VSP approved. So now we have to pay more than expected for the appointment, and then now go find another VSP location to make the glasses/contacts needed. All other doctors we have been to check your insurance when the appointment is made....not after. This is on the heels of attempting to get safety glasses for work made here a few years ago - the glasses that came in were useless, nothing like my normal prescription. Couldn't see at all. The office staff helping me continued to insist that the prescription was correct. It took a month to send back and make another pair of lenses - and I still couldn't see. Finally, they admitted the prescription must be wrong, and I'd need another appointment. Maybe it is a good thing they no longer accept VSP. We need to find someplace else.
Aug 18, 2020
Jim is a 5 star plus!! Everyone is fabulous and it’s comforting to see the sane familiar faces each time I visit.
Aug 15, 2020
The one lady in your office was not very friendly. The one with blonde hair and bangs. She seemed to look down on me as if I were not good enough to be there. The doctor however is fabulous
Aug 15, 2020
Everyone is so friendly and thorough. Great care!
Aug 11, 2020
I always feel I have the best of care with Patrick Griffin. He is very easy to talk to and is very honest with his opinions. He is an excellent doctor. His entire staff is fabulous. I really enjoy the man the does the preliminary work up-he is wonderful.
Aug 8, 2020
My family and I have been going to Dr. Griffin for a few years now and they have the best service!
Aug 7, 2020
Office staff is so friendly and helpful. Jim goes above and beyond to make the experience fun, enjoyable, and efficient. Dr. Griffin is also warm and knowledgable and he takes his time to answer any questions I may have. I would absolutely give them a 10/10.
Aug 5, 2020
I'm not pleased. I clearly and carefully told Dr. Griffin that my problem had to do with vision blurring after not more than1/2-hour or so of reading and that I needed my 'bifocal line' or whatever it's called moved up so that I didn't need to tilt my head back and look down my nose to read my computer screen. $750 later I have a new pair of frames I'm not sure I even needed. My reading experience in entirely unchanged. I still cannot read for more than a few minutes, I still cannot see the computer screen without leaning forward and tilting my head back to get to the bifocal part of my glasses in play. I have a new type of sunglass clip-on that was never even discussed with me and that I absolutely hate. It is almost impossible to get the clip-ons on and off, and it is totally impossible without removing my glasses and getting fingerprints all over both.
Jul 31, 2020
Griffin Optometric Talega office is the best! We've been going to Griffin for 20+ years. Great service, great staff, professional excellence provided here. They also have locations downtown San Clemente and Laguna Niguel. We love Dr. Patrick Griffin.

Everyone is very helpful and easy to work with. I have gone to a a couple of other optometrists over the last couple of years but non match up to the service you provide.
Jul 18, 2020
Excellent service from Dr. Griffin and entire staff
Jul 17, 2020
Griffin Optometric is the best. This was my first visit since CV-19 precautions and they were on it 100%. Met at door. Temperature taken. Sanitize my hands. Sanitized pens. Everyone in masks. But other than that, the usual friendly, efficient and very professional service. Highly recommended!
Jul 17, 2020
I give fair thought to any review survey I choose to respond to. It was easy to give a 5 star review to Griffin Optometric. Having a family history of genetic eye health issues in later years I feel well taken care of as I age, knowing they are up to date in knowledge and procedures, genuinely loving what they do, and giving us the best quality of care possible.
Jul 11, 2020
Very much enjoy Doctor Patrick and Jim; they both make you feel valued as a customer and they combine professionalism and friendliness in perfect harmony. The ladies working the desk are equally professional and efficient with their approach
Jul 11, 2020
Fantastic experience! It had been over 2 years since I had an eye exam. I desperately needed new glasses and contacts. From the moment I entered the office everyone was very friendly and accommodating. I barely waited at all and the initial tech made the whole experience fun. The doctor answered all my questions and made sure I would have enough contact lenses until my new ones arrived (4 days to receive). The front office staff double checked the best way to use my VSP benefits and then even found a rebate that would apply for my contact lenses. I would highly recommend this office. They were efficient, friendly, knowledgeable and I felt I was in good hands throughout the entire appointment.
Jul 7, 2020
Always a pleasure! Seamless process from start to finish

Jun 2, 2020
I have been to many eye doctors in the past and no one but Dr. Griffin has given me bifocals I can actually see out of and enjoy! He treats you like family and always takes so much time with you and truly cares about you. His staff is exceptional and they also take the time to help you with whatever you need. I drive from Rancho Santa Margarita to Telaga because of how exceptional they all are and would not have it any other way!!

On top of that, picking out new frames felt like a personal styling session! Thank you, Griffin Optometry!
May 20, 2020
Griffin Optometric stands behind their work. I have had problems with new sunglasses on various occasions, and Denise (who is an exceptional employee) works with me to remedy the problem. Fabulous customer service!

Everyone here was EXTREMELY nice and professional. I live in Costa Mesa but haven’t changed my location to closer because the service is worth the drive! They are very helpful and kind!
May 16, 2020
The entire Griffin personnel were friendly, compassionate in dealing with the Covid19 requirements, and knowledgeable. Kristine is always a pleasure to see and work with, as is Jim.

My entire family is appreciative of the Griffin team!

Human Interest story....this Dr truly is a. DOCTOR Did not have appointment but really needed help. Dr Griffin answered the phone when I rang him up. He listened and told me he would get me eye drops right away and what to do. Told him Walmart pharmacy and about to hang up and he says ...do you have anyone to pick prescription for you...guess I said not really and was about to hang up and he said I can pick it up for you if you don’t have anyone and take to your house. I wanted to yelL out REALLY?.........thought I must not have heard that one right. Not a doctor in 82 years would ever think of offering and he just did. That was a total. WOW. To me. One I cannot ever forget. When telling many people later they all said the same thing. REALLY A friend called me 2 minutes later and went to pick up prescription but clearly he would have done it.......Amazing Grace. Amen. Nancy Crowley

Everyone in Dr. Griffin's office is wonderful. No long waits, comprehensive eye exams, and efficient service. They always get my new glasses in quickly and are happy to fix any issues I have with my glasses in between exams. When my husband had an emergency condition they told him to come in immediately and then got him in to see an ophthalmologist on an emergency basis the next morning. I think they might be a little expensive - certainly more than LensCrafters or Costco - but you get what you pay for and they are super convenient!!

Front Office was so friendly and professional. Jim was so quick and taking us back. Zero wait time Dr Patrick was amazing. So good with kids and talks to them and not to the parent.
Nov 3, 2019
Very friendly staff and top notch care. I was very pleased and would highly recommend this Group.
Nov 2, 2019
Very friendly and sincerely concerned about getting my prescription correct. Spent a lot of time getting to know me and my particular vision problems. Glasses are a little high priced compared to the super discount places, but I feel in this case you get what you pay for!
Oct 30, 2019
I highly recommend this Griffin Optometry office! This was my first time to use a private office rather than a popular chain of optometry. They are outstanding! They are all so kind and knowledgeable and really make you feel comfortable! I really appreciate them.
Oct 28, 2019
I’ve been going here for years, my whole family goes here. Wouldn’t go anywhere else. Always excellent care, personalized service, and they are so helpful when a situation arises or we need some glasses tweaked or fixed!
Oct 24, 2019
Love being a patient at your office! Everyone is very nice and accommodating. I will continue to see the doctors at Griffin for years to come!

Oct 4, 2019
Friendly, extensive appointment
Oct 4, 2019
I have never been a fan of going to the dr and I’m now 38 years old. Going to the eye dr for the first time was terrifying especially why I was going. My baby girl cut my my eye with her fingernail and everything was blurry out of my left eye. From the minute I walked in everyone took care of me. More then normal. It was the extra steps of care and positive attitudes that made me forget why I was even there in the first place. Jim has the biggest heart and dr griffin was alone if the friendliest dr s I have ever met.
Oct 2, 2019
Not only does the staff of Griffin Optometric take care of my eyes, they also take care of ME as a person concerned about my vision! They are friendly, kind, helpful, and well trained for their careers. I highly recommend them.
Oct 1, 2019
Griffin Optometric is the best! After we moved back to Orange County they corrected my misdiagnosed lenses from another doctor. They helped me get through a problem with my vision before recent cataract surgery...we have recommended them to several neighbors and friends... they really care about their patients....and have a great staff. Thanks Griffin Optometric...
Oct 1, 2019
Wonderful and friendly staff. I brought my nervous 6 year old in for his annual and they put him right at ease. The office is bright and clean and the staff listened to all of our concerns, asked follow up questions and explained everything thoroughly, even to the point my 6 year old understood. Very happy I found Griffin Optometric!

Jul 20, 2019
Dr. Callister was awesome! He provided the answers to questions I had about my vision. The staff was friendly, professional and helpful.
Jul 6, 2019
Let me start off by saying my experience with Dr. Patrick Griffin was excellent. His Opthalmic Technician is outstanding. He is so warm & sincere & extends such exceptional customer service. The front office girls could be a little more enthusiatic. The reason I only gave a 9 was due to the response I received from the front desk when I politely called to inform that I was running 5 minute late. She wasn't friendly, warm or inviting, she just said if I was 15 minutes late they would reschedule me. I did not have to call it was out of courtesy. I arrived within 6-8 minutes of my appointment. Her tone & response just left me with a bitter, & sour feeling. I really wanted to just cancel, my appointment, but, having taken time off from work, I did not.
Jul 4, 2019
Wonderful and helpful staff; everyone feels like a friend. Dr. Patrick and his staff are fashionable but down to earth; the office is modern and fresh, and screenings are done with the state of the art technology. This makes exams more comfortable than ever. I love how upbeat everyone is— such a great, warm energy, punctuated, of course, by excellent eye-care!
Jul 4, 2019
Dr. Patrick is the best and his support staff are great too. Jim is funny and makes you feel very comfortable. The Front Desk girls are really nice and efficient, and I enjoy coming here every year. Would highly recommend Dr. Patrick and this Talega office. Also, it's very comforting that Griffin Optometric provides "emergency" visits if needed.
Jul 1, 2019
Best patient care and service.

Jun 14, 2019
From minute one, every member of the GO team gave exceptional service. JIM was the kindest man I’ve ever met in a practitioners office. The attention to detail from both Dr Pat and Jim were appreciated. We left feeling like we were stepping away from a family gathering. It was an awesome experience and one we will share with all of our friends. Thank you!
Jun 10, 2019

Not only did the office get us in immedciately, we were in the hands of greatness every step of the way! The entire staff was incredibly professional, organized, warm, friendly - this is one of the rare busnesses that you just don't see or find any more - a true gem that is just on their game, in integral part of the community, and amazing at the entire Optometry experience!

All staff was friendly and helpful. While waiting for my appointment I observed a staff member teaching a young man how to put on his contact lenses; she was so patient and encouraging!

Jan 29, 2019
Very pleasant, thorough and communicative annual exam. They addressed potential genetic issue, dry eye 👁 that I hadn’t realized and notifying me future cataract issue. They made me HAPPY that I took care of my health.

I always go the office on Del Mar but needed an urgent visit after a 4 day weekend. I was given an appt in Talega as there would be no Dr on Del Mar that day. Dr Patrick treated me as if I were his own patient. Caring and thorough. I was also greeted by "Jim" who took me into the waiting room. What an asset to that office. He was welcoming, friendly and so personable.
Nov 29, 2018
My exam/visit was very satisfactory. Your assistant does a very good job taking care of the initial steps in the exam process. He is courteous, efficient, and congenial. Dr. Griffin does an excellent job explaining the outcome/results of the exam.
Nov 21, 2018
Upon her driving into the office as a new patient I was greeted warmly. Jim was thorough, respect full and knowledgeable. Dr. Griffin addressed all of my concerns, answered all of my questions and explained in great detail how we were going to correct my vision issues. I was very, very pleased with my experience. I’m actually looking forward to my follow up appointment!
Nov 17, 2018
The energy and professionalism of the staff is amazing. This was by far the most informative and dare I say "fun" visit to the optometrist I've ever had! Beyond that, Dr. Patrick helped me find the right contacts for and explained the process as we went along.
Nov 16, 2018

Griffin Optometric is the only practice I will go to for my optometry needs. All of the staff are nice, efficient and you are treated well from the moment you walk in until you leave. The doctors are professional, kind and extremely good at what they do. I wear contacts and glasses as well as occasionally have eye issues due to a hereditary condition. They have always known exactly what to do and I get the perfect prescriptions every time. I highly recommend Griffin Optometric Group. We are lucky to have such great doctors in San Clemente!

Oct 6, 2018
Another annual A+ exam with Dr. Beverly Miller. Always thorough - checking everything from A-Z about my previous and present eye conditions. The staff is superior at making you feel welcome and excited about being part of my frame selection - making sure I'm "on point" with my eyewear. As a "senior" - it's ever so important to me to feel I look current, a bit edgy and unpredictable in my eyewear! See you again next year!! Oh-and thanks Jim!!
Oct 5, 2018
This is the most professional office I have dealt with. The staff and doctor are the nicest and so caring. The customer service is so refreshing.

I have been a patient at Griffin Optometric Talega for over ten years. I absolutely could not say more about the quality of care I get from each and every member of the staff as well as from Dr. Griffin. Everyone in that office makes you feel comfortable. They are extremely helpful and treat you with such care and concern for all your matters. I think it really says a lot that there is not any staff turnover. The people who helped me on my 1st visit are still there! I really enjoy going to this office and suggest it to all my friends and family. They are truly the best!
Sep 12, 2018

SUCH A GREAT STAFF. ALWAYS A DELIGHT
Aug 15, 2018
The doctor was amazing.The person at reception that gave my my contact "exam" only spent 10 minutes with me, then proceeded to start answering phones. She did not teach me how to put my contact in, then charged me $60 for literally 10 minutes of her time. I left without my sample contacts or my new glasses which I needed to get because she CLEARLY did not care at all about me. In fact when she was sitting with me she talked down to me, was very belittling, and clearly thought she had better things to do.
Aug 13, 2018
Your office is so professional, helpful and all around excellent - our only regret is not coming here 15 years ago when we first moved to Talega!! Most grateful to have found you :)
Aug 11, 2018

Dr.. Patrick Griffin is so thorough and expert in his evaluations. He works very hard to find the best solutions. Jimmy, his technician, is always so bright and cheerful as well as professional. I am happy to be their patient
Jun 19, 2018
I was referred to Doctor Patrick and I can not thank him enough. I am so happy with your services !!! I will highly recommend you to my friends !!!
Jun 15, 2018
What's not to recommend?! From scheduling the appointment to the greeting by the front desk to the initial testing by the assistant to the exam... always a great experience. Jimmy (Dr. Patrick's assistant) is incredible. Thorough, knowledgeable, clear in his explanations of what each test is for. And oh, so friendly. Dr. Patrick is the best. One of the most professional doctors I've seen. He takes time to listen to any concerns or problems, asking questions to make sure he understands an issue and always finds a answer to a problem.

I was very pleased with your level of customer service at Griffin Optometric in Talega. As my husband and I are new to the area, we went online to "Nextdoor Neighbor" for the Reserve in San Clemente. Griffin Optometric was highly recommended by many people. Now, I know why. Can't wait for my husband to schedule an appointment with you!

Employees very personable. Impressed with Dr Griffin’s professionalism and presence.
Apr 24, 2018
No waiting in the lobby, the lab assistant was efficient and professional, and the doctor was awesome.
Apr 19, 2018
Never happy with selection of glasses or the ladies in the front. Rude
Apr 19, 2018
I highly recommend Dr. Griffin and his staff. They are simply the best.
Apr 19, 2018
Jim is amazing! Staff is super friendly and Dr.Griffin 1st class
Apr 18, 2018
The staff is always so friendly and helpful. Jim is a "gem", and Dr. Patrick is always so nice and takes time to explain any issues that I have. We always share family stories, he is a real family man.
Apr 17, 2018
Dr. Griffin and Jim are so personable and knowledgeable!
Apr 15, 2018
That was awesome! After brain surgery I was seen by the doctor as a walk in. Something I didn't expect. I feel like I am really being taken care of under these strange circumstances. Thanks!!
Apr 10, 2018
Entire staff is knowledgeable and friendly.thorough exam and helpful in every way.
Apr 8, 2018
Everyone is super nice and profession
Apr 8, 2018
For me it starts with those ladies at the front desk. They are always busy, and multi-tasking, but always offer a friendly hello with a smile and miraculously know my name, and I am hardly a memorable fellow. Next, Jim, the optometrist's assistant is kind, friendly and very competent. Dr. Griffin is friendly, asks about the family, knows my history and takes very good care of me and my eyes. If I do get a new pair of glasses, the ladies are knowledgeable and patient in making recommendations but letting me choose what I want. I actually look forward to my visits.
Apr 4, 2018
Everyone in Dr. Griffin's office is wonderful. Their service is wonderful. I stop in multiple times per year (in between my regular eye exams) just to have my glasses tightened and they always fix them quickly for me. They have lots of great frames to choose from at a variety of price points. The exam and lens are on the high-end I think (compared to Costco or Lens Crafters) but I feel like my eyes are too important to trust to the discount folks and Dr. Griffin and his staff do a really thorough eye exam.
Mar 29, 2018
Great friendly staff and wonderful service!!
Mar 29, 2018
A very professional office. I never even have time to pick up a magazine in the waiting area, and once they take me inside the progress is fast. Results are tops. Everybody there seems to really care how well I see.
Mar 28, 2018
Quality people providing exceptional service & always with a smile!
Mar 12, 2018
I always feel good when I come to your office. The service is so personable, yet professional, and I love the warmth and kindness shown me every time. I always know that I in good hands and that our vision health is your primary concern. Thank you!

I have used Griffin Optometric doctors for both an eye exam/glasses and a dry-eye condition that needed immediate attention. Both doctors were excellent!
Feb 22, 2018
Thank you Griffin Optometric at Talega for a great experience with my eye exam and choosing new glasses. It is great to be somewhere where the people are experienced, knowledgeable, helpful and nice to be around. Wouldn't change any of it!

Called the office and about a eye problem and was able to be examined the same day. Did go in the next day and was and treated by Dr Randy and staff with the best care from everyone.
Jan 24, 2018
Excellent service , quality careI would use him continually as my family has
Jan 23, 2018
Thank you for always taking care of me so well. All of the ladies at the front desk are professional and kind and knowledgeable. Jim is always thorough, knowledgeable, professional and kind as well. Dr. Griffin is also thorough and professional and kind. I love Griffin Optometric Talega. Thank you.
Jan 21, 2018
Everyone greets you and the office is extremely personable, efficient and knowledgeable.
Jan 13, 2018
Dr. Griffin and staff are very professional and treat you like family....expert service and make you feel very comfortable.
Jan 12, 2018
Great experience as the doctor that did my exam was very friendly, took his time with me and really listened to my concerns. The only negative that I will mention is the fact that one of the ladies at the front desk was constantly popping her gum which basically drives me insane. Might be my pet peeve but really has no place in a professional environment.
Jan 5, 2018
Professional Staff that take the time to go over your medical history and provide the best option to take care of your needs. I was very impressed with the attention to detail and the evaluation of my eyes by Doctor Miller. The appointment I had on December 20th was my first and I have decided due to how they took care of me to trust them for all of my eye care with my family.
Dec 26, 2017
I love coming to see Dr. Patrick and Jim. Always nice to catch up
Dec 21, 2017
Yesterday I had an emergency appointment with Dr. Patrick which receptionist Patty arranged to have me seen within 15 minutes of my initial phone call. I was immediately treated by Dr Patrick and his assistant, Jim, and was out the door within 20 minutes of my arrival. And I could not have received better or kinder treatment which made for a very Merry Christmas as it was discovered that the persistent paln in my eye was due to a fragment of broken contact that I was not aware of. Thank you, Dr Patrick and staff!
Dec 20, 2017
Amazing service from the time I walk in to the time I walk out the door!
Dec 19, 2017
I had a wonderful experience at Griffin optometry. I was treated with warmth, kindness and respect. They explained everything so clearly, unlike previous doctor saw. I look forward to getting my new glasses! Jim and Dr Patrick were outstanding!
Dec 17, 2017
Love the staff! Knowledgeable, friendly and comfortable
Dec 9, 2017
Perhaps some more colors in the frames would give a lighter touch to your selection??
Dec 7, 2017
Great with kids! Patient and friendly during exam. My kids feel very comfortable.
Nov 29, 2017
Absolutely the best! Always welcoming, never a long wait and the best care!!
Nov 29, 2017
I’ve been going to Griffin for many years. The whole family goes there. Wouldn’t go anywhere else!
Nov 24, 2017
Jim is amazing with the customers! Always enjoy interacting with him.
Nov 21, 2017
They are the best! Always friendly, happy, and helpful but most important knowledgeable.
Nov 18, 2017
I have been coming to Griffin Optometric Group since I first needed glasses when I was 8 years old (now 25). In fact, my whole family has been seeing Dr. Patrick Griffin since then! Him and his staff are super friendly and knowledgeable, and they have always taken excellent care of us. They also carry a great selection of eyeglass styles and brands ranging from trendy and eclectic to classic and timeless. It is always a pleasure to visit Griffin Optometric Group, and I highly recommend them to everyone looking for a great optometrist.
Nov 11, 2017
excellent service, great people

Dr Patrick is AMAZING! Love that he always spends time with you in your appointment to address you concerns and makes sure you are 100% satisfied with everything!!!! THANKS Dr P.
Nov 6, 2017
You guys are the best !
Nov 3, 2017
The doctor was very present and focused on me and the needs of my three kids. He didn’t seemed rushed to see another patient, and I felt like he was thorough and genuinely concerned to meet our needs.
Nov 3, 2017
I was leaving on a weeks vacation and had my left eye looking really pink. They got me in that same day and gave me a prescription for conjunctivitis..I did the drops for 10 days as instructed and it's all cleared up.
Nov 1, 2017
Courteous and caring staff
Oct 25, 2017
I was disappointed that I did not get to opt out of the expensive digital photo. The paper work was provided while the photo was being taken. I believe that is unprofessional.
Oct 24, 2017
Dr. Griffin and his friendly and knowledgeable staff provide the most relaxing environment for their clients. I am extremely happy and satisfied.
Oct 20, 2017
Whole staff are completely patient focused and always great interactions.
Oct 19, 2017
I always enjoy seeing Patrick. He is genuinely interested in what I have been doing since our last visit. He cares about taking time to connect with you as a person.
Oct 19, 2017
Patrick always takes time to chat with me about school and what my college plans are for the future. I enjoy speaking with him each visit and taking in his suggestions for schools.
Oct 19, 2017
Christine makes it a wonderful, easy visit. She has a great degree of tolerance, in my case.
Oct 18, 2017
Very professional and honest practice.
Oct 18, 2017
This is a great office. The staff is friendly and Dr. Griffennis just plain awesome
Oct 18, 2017
Dr. Griffin took great care in explaining what was going on with my eyes and he gave me strategies to help me during the day to help avoid headaches.
Oct 16, 2017
Griffin Optemetric is by far one of my favorite places to go. I feel free to be myself, respected and appreciated for who I am after an eye exam.
Oct 11, 2017
The staff is amazing! Dr. Patrick is great.
Oct 8, 2017
Loved Dr. Miller, she was very attentive and supportive of my eye issues. She came up with a plan to diagnose and address a situation that had been plaguing me for 6 months.

Sep 21, 2017
The staff is very helpful and friendly. I highly recommend the Griffin group.
Sep 20, 2017
Dr Randy was very informative. Gained knowledge regarding my blurry vision and gave me information about the eye drop to eliminate blurry vision which is under FDA approval. I hope the eye drop will be on the market anytime soon. Thank you for all the services. Best clinic in San Diego. Staffs are very helpful.
Sep 19, 2017
Always friendly knowledgeable staff. I have never had to make an emergency appointment, but feel if I did, they would do their best to see me. So can't really "grade" the ease of making one. And the doctor is very kind and caring....and please keep up the good work..... And your fun socks!
Sep 16, 2017
I was a little nervous visiting a new eye doctor but upon the conclusion of the appointment I was so glad I chosen Griffin Optometric....for the first time in several years I felt that I had some of the best eye care I could get and my trial contacts are working well. I am seeing clearly!! So happy with Griffin Optometric...thank you all!!
Sep 15, 2017
Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful. It was a good experience for someone who has never had glasses before.
Sep 15, 2017
This office staff is always friendly & vet professional. I feel like I'm in good hands when I'm in here.
Sep 13, 2017
Great group of people that care for their customers.
Sep 13, 2017
Went above and beyond to get me an appointment with a specialist Dr.
Sep 13, 2017
I told the staff, when I left yesterday, that their office was always "bright and shiny". This refers to the place, and the people. Jim is great with making you feel at ease, and is so efficient in guiding you through the tests. Dr. Patrick is always interested in hearing about your life, and is great at evaluating, testing and answering all questions. Christine is so stylish that I trust her to help pick out my new frames. And other staff members are always willing to give an opinion on how glasses look on you, if you ask them. For me, it is a fun place to visit and everyone there is great at what they do. I highly recommend Dr. Griffin and the Talega office.
Sep 12, 2017
No better service anywhere. Everyone is extremely efficient and super friendly.

Outstanding eye examination customer service!

Very friendly staff and Dr. Griffin is great!
Aug 31, 2017
This office is amazing! I was treated like family from start to finish. The ladies at reception were A+, tech Jim was about as good as it gets. He had a moment, and cleaned and tightened up each pair of my glasses. The comprehensive exam was seamless, with courtesy being uplifting and attentive, without the feeling that it was all "scripted." Dr. Griffin spent time with me, great listener and very professional. Nothing short of the 5 start rating this office deserves.
Aug 30, 2017
Service was excellent, staff goes out of their to make you enjoy your visit and all services are more than professional.
Aug 26, 2017
A very extensive eye check up, I was very pleased
Aug 24, 2017
My husband and I have been coming to Griffin optometric for more than 20 years. We have even referred family members. Everybody is warm and friendly. I enjoy getting my eyes checked and updated glasses. I also appreciate the care I get for proactive care. All equipment is up to date and new.
Aug 22, 2017
Awesome docs, great support staff
Aug 21, 2017
One the most amazing optometrist ever👌🏻
Aug 19, 2017
Always a great experience!
Aug 18, 2017
Dr Miller was excellent. Your Office Staff not so good. Spent little time looking for frames/lenses when I said I would like something similar to what I had. Fitting when new glasses came in was rushed. I was told they fit well but I felt they were a bit cocked. I finally prevailed. I returned today regarding blemishes on the bottom of the right lens. First review by staff--"there's nothing there, only a nylon string". After he took them in the back to examine, he said that there was some acrylic residual which he removed. Lenses looked OK after that. But no apology for brushing me off when I first came in. I waited and got a hollow "have a nice day" with no eye contact or smile. So, exam and Dr excellent....office staff poor. I can get that type of service at Walmart and Costco and I likely will go there in the future.
Aug 17, 2017
Staff is friendly and very knowledgeable.
Aug 15, 2017
Dr Patrick is great. Such a good listener and communicator. The office staff is friendly and always helpful.
Aug 12, 2017
My experience was very pleasant, everyone was very professional, courteous and well informed
Aug 12, 2017
I've been a patient of Griffin Optometric since I was a child. I love that they are constantly improving their technology to make their exams more thorough, and less intrusive (anyone who's had the "puffer" pressure test knows what I'm talking about). But, I also love the fact that they continue to maintain such a personal and caring approach to treating their patients.
Aug 9, 2017
Staff is courteous, knowledgeable and always on time for appts.

Grateful to have a caring, courteous and professional eye care office to help me take care of my eyes!

I found Friendly, competent staff and Doctor.
Jul 29, 2017
My visit with Dr. Miller was fantastic. She's very upbeat and positive and it's clear she cares deeply about the quality of her exam and her findings. She gave me great insight into care for my dry eye issues. I look forward to seeing her next year!
Jul 29, 2017
What a great experience! Very professional, and very organized, from beginning to end. Very personable staff as well. Fun group.

All of the staff and service are amazing. I have tried other options and was never satisfied! Thank you to the Griffin Team and Family.

I would highly recommend Griffin Optometrics. They are very professional, and everyone in the office cares about the patients. It's easy to make an appointment, and and they are very thorough in their examinations.
Jul 10, 2017
You are ALL professional, kind and knowledgeable.
