Dr. Ciminelli's expertise in finding the tear in my retina and sending me immediately to a specialist may have saved me from having a detached retina. The specialist, Dr. Scarpetelli was very impressed as well.

I was a bit anxious going in for my exam to say the least. Dr. Bran was very patient and informative as was the rest of the staff. I felt that I was in very good hands in a very professional practice. I was recommended by a friend and I would certainly pass on the recommendation.

Very friendly. Doctors are professional and very knowledgeable.

caring bright people who made my experience quick and easy

Dec 7, 2018

I've been a patient of Ridgefield Family Eye Care for 35 years, and each year I am more impressed by their practice. Their reputation is top notch and very well deserved! Very very highly recommended.

Nov 28, 2018

The guy who did all my preliminary work (with the long hair!) is really nice and personable and takes his job very seriously. And I normally see Dr Bran but Dr Berman was fantastic! I got a great recommendation for blue light filtering lenses.

Nov 24, 2018

Very thorough exam. Dr. Berman and all staff are extremely professional, courteous and competent. Very good selection of eyewear and helpful assistance in selecting frames.

Loved everything about Ridgefield Family Eye Care. Staff were welcoming, professional and knowledgeable. I felt I got an excellent, unhurried and comprehensive eye exam that used the latest technology ... and they had a wonderful range of eyeglass frame from which to choose. Would not hesitate to recommend to others.

Nov 5, 2018

I’ve been a client of RFEC for the better part of 26 years, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience. I’ve always gotten a big kick out of their state of the art technology, It’s amazing how much one can learn from a comprehensive eye exam about one’s general health and well-being. Dr.Berman is the partner who does my exams. He’s a true pro, and he’s excellent at putting a patient at ease. Do not hesitate to make an appointment. Respectfully, Bobbi Esposito

Nov 3, 2018

Everyone in the office where very kind and friendly,

Everyone is always so kind. I have been going here for years and love you all.

Oct 25, 2018

Everyone is always very warm and welcoming

Oct 17, 2018

We always reccomend Ridgefield Eye care! We wouldn't go anywhere else. And we live in Shelton so its not nearby.

Oct 14, 2018

I would never go to any other eye doctors. Dr. Hawran is wonderful. Lisa, who helped me choose and order my new glasses, is delightful and patient. Best team.

Oct 13, 2018

Professional, courteous and prompt

Oct 10, 2018

I have to comment on the wait time. Normally, it is not as long but the staff was one man down yesterday, so things were slightly backed up but not to an annoying degree. It was still only about a 20 minute wait.

Oct 10, 2018

It's always an excellent visit with Dr. Berman. He is very professional, knowledgeable and extremely thorough in his attention to detail. I always come away feeling that I have received absolutely the best care possible. He answers all questions with patience and welcomes an open dialog about any issue that I may bring up. He listens attentively to any concerns that are raised and addresses them completely. He is also very personable. I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting a high level of quality eye care.

Oct 7, 2018

ALWAYS A BIG HELP AND MAKES ME FEEL I'm SPECIAL TO THEM

Oct 7, 2018

The entire staff is very professional!

Oct 5, 2018

Everyone was very good Very good

Oct 4, 2018

The staff was so supportive and caring when I explained my anxiety around eye appointments. They helped me through it and I felt very comfortable.

Oct 3, 2018

I have been a patient of Dr Hawran’s for over ten years. Dr. Hawran is very thorough, and knowledgeable of all my eye conditions thus far. She is patient and caring while listening to my concerns and explains her diagnosis to me with different options for resolution. During my annual checkup this past Saturday, and after I mentioned an isssue with focusing and eye floaters, Dr Hawran discovered a retina problem and immediately set up a referral/appointment with a retina surgeon to evaluate my situation that same afternoon. I was then contacted by the retina specialist Dr Coady in Westport. After a thorough examination, I had emergency laser surgery for retina detachment that same afternoon. I am very grateful for the medical expertise and thoroughness of Dr Hawran in saving my eyesight. And Dr Coady for the immediate response to my medical emergency.

Sep 25, 2018

Friendly staff. Dr. Bran provides excellent care.

Sep 23, 2018

The whole team was great and Dr Hawran was caring and thorough

Sep 14, 2018

Dr. Bran is professional and I always confident with the exam he has provided.

Sep 13, 2018

Front desk always sweet on phone and in person, same with those who help with glasses!

Sep 13, 2018

Always a great experience coming in here.

Sep 12, 2018

It is refreshing to be treated as an individual, with compassion and care, rather than someone to be ushered through the office as quickly as possible.

Aug 31, 2018

I was a new patient. The greeting from the front desk was pleasant. Forms indicated up front that one procedure would likely not be covered by insurance, asking for permission, which was a nice change from past experiences. Brenda (?) came immediately and was absolutely excellent. She was very professional and pleasant, and took the time to listen to my concerns. The wait for the doctor was negligible. He conducted a thorough exam, explained everything, and addressed my concerns about my eye health. I returned home and requested appointments for other family members.

Aug 31, 2018

It is always a pleasure to come to your offices as the staff is very warm and welcoming.

Aug 30, 2018

Your office staff is friendly and welcoming..in fact Irving gave good advice on how my day was. Going. It was on Smart Tvs. He also gave me good advice on the cleaning glasses.

Aug 28, 2018

Everything about this practice is EXCELLENT, except it does not accept Connecticare insurance, which is rather odd since it is one of only two insurers on the individual market in Connecticut. But, I like the doctor so much, that I pay out of my own pocket.

Aug 28, 2018

Sikilled, professional doctors & staff

Aug 24, 2018

My first time here was very pleasant, not rushed, I will be back.

Aug 21, 2018

The staff is very knowledgeable and they don't rush you through.

Aug 17, 2018

And I do recommend the practice to everyone I know. I have the most difficult eyes to fit for prescriptions, both eyeglasses and contacts, and am an avid reader as well as an outdoor sports-woman. I feel like my eyes are my most important asset and Dr Berman and the staff make me feel as though they really care about my acuity, my comfort, my eye health and my appearance. They even give me travel size samples of solutions for my vacations so I'm not lugging big bottles of liquid. I have called them while on vacation, and the optometrist and they coordinated my eye-care with the optometrist at the resort. I couldn't have a stronger recommendation than Dr Berman and Patty in Contact Lenses and the whole 'Family Eye Care' practice.

Aug 16, 2018

Efficient and informative. Even though I was just in for an eye exam, I felt everyone was extremely thorough and did a great job of explaining the results.

Aug 16, 2018

Everything is great there...however it does tend to be more expensive than other places.

Aug 14, 2018

Very kind, considerate and caring. As a patient without an appointment they worked me in and did not rush me through but took time to give fill attention to my problem. I shall return 🙂

Aug 11, 2018

Great service and confident in Dr Berman's eye care

Aug 10, 2018

Aug 8, 2018

Very friendly staff. They made me feel comfortable and relaxed. Explained every step clearly.

Aug 7, 2018

Having worn glasses & contacts for the majority of my lifetime, and dealing with the insecurities poor eye sight often inflicts upon us, I have found my highest level of comfort and confidence with Ridgefield Family EC!. The staff is tremendously sensitive to the patient's needs, and I find Dr. Bram in particular to be as professional and competent a physician I've ever worked with. Rick Wright, Brookfield

Feb 27, 2018

The receptionist on Wednesday seemed even sharper on insurance issues than ever before I've always liked all your people. The young girl that did the pre testing before I saw dr. Berman seem to be ultra sweet and maybe rather than Ultra technical I think she was trying almost too hard but she was pleasant and I hope the testing was up to par. The receptionist of woman on Wednesday seemed so so sharp on all the insurance issues I really appreciated her input she seem to have a great handle on the whole situation without me asking any questions.

Oct 30, 2017

doctors are great. seen them all. very capable and knowledgeable. the issue i have is with the ladies in the optometry department who help with eyeglasses. they or their computers seem slow and outdated and the comments about "boy colors" and "girl colors" for frames seems from a different era. they're why this office gets 2 stars off.

Oct 27, 2017

Wonderful doctors. Best equipment anywhere

Oct 27, 2017

Patient care provided at Ridgefield Family Eye Care is exceptional. The staff are warm & welcoming, the waiting area is more like a family room than an office and Dr. Berman provides extraordinary care.

I started going to Ridgefield Family Eye Care in 1998. I was under the care of Dr.Teig. My entire family was also under his care until his retirement. We are now under the care of Dr. Bran. He is magnificent. His demeanor is great. He explains what he is doing and what he has found. We could not ask for a better eye doctor. By the way, we travel approximately 300 miles one way for our visits.

Jul 23, 2017

My first visit was in 1987. I continue to come back. So does my wife. At 70+ I have various medical needs and wish all my medical service visits could be as satisfying. The Doctors, Staff and facility are focused on serving the patient. Appointments are on time, Questions are thoroughly answered, I always come away feeling good about my visit.

Jun 28, 2017

The last time I was there I walked out because the nurse, assistant or what ever you call her said I was yelling at her. I tried to explain I just have a loud voice and wanted to know about certain tests she wanted to perform that seemed to be the same ones I had two days before. When she could not give me a satisfactory answer an accused me of her not letting me do her job , I said "I'm ready to leave if this is the way it's going to continue". She said " Go ahead" and that's exactly what I did!

Jun 26, 2017

Very riendly and knowledge staff and Dr. Bran was wonderful - the exam was thorough and he discussed the results in depth with me and made recommendations to help me prevent further damage to the macula. Highly recommend this eye doctor.

Jan 21, 2017

I switched the family over to Ridgefield Family Eye Care a couple of years ago as I was looking for better eye care for my children, one of which was going to transition from glasses to contacts.
