Testimonials

See what our clients have to say about us

  • "I take my Mother here for her eye Dr visits.
    The staff is very courteous and always get her back to see Dr Free very promptly."
    Cyndee Gass Magno
  • "If five stars is as good as it gets, we'll have to consider a new rating system. Dr. Free and his staff go so far beyond what FIVE STARS can communicate, we should all come to some new summit and consider the view from the top! What you will find is there is no better optometrist as far as you can see. The standard for eye care is consistently defined in Tulsa at 1223 S. Peoria."
    David Asher
