Hi

My DS's paediatrician wants me to get his eyes checked by an optometrist. Does anyone have any recommendations for one (preferably southside)that's good with kids. The one I see is miserable with adults, so I can only imagine what he'd be like with children.

I see Joe Pino in Civic and I have been seeing him since I was 9. He is awesome. 6247 4748

Did he want sight or vision tested. I have a couple of recommendations for testing vision and good with kids. One is Pino in Civic plus I know of one in Tuggers. Which would be easier for you to get to?

Hi

Thanks for those suggestions. The name of the one in Tuggers would be great.

Another recommendation for Joe Pino. I too have seen him since I first got glasses when I was 14. Lovely guy with kids of his own and a great manner. Well worth the trip to Civic
