Always a pleasant experience, so professional and enjoyable to be around. Chris

Very good visit & Exam.

Best through exam ever. Staff was great. I will definitely be back to get my glasses

Like the new person who checked my eyes out. Dr. R. Is always through.

The guy who performed all the tests on me was going to ask the doc about the bags under my eyes and then get back to me. He never did.

I love how throughly Dr. Ruckman evaluates his patients. I was having problems with my contacts and made an appointment to get them checked a few days later. My only concern this past visit was he thought I was there for a glaucoma check.

Dr. Ruckman always takes time to explain things and discuss options. Everyone in the office treats us like people who matter.

You did good. Your exams are thorough. If it had not been from a previous exam by Dr Ruckman. I would have had an problem that would have been detrimental to my sight. So a belated THANK YOU.

I was very happy with my appointment . Everything went very smoothly.

As always staff very professional and courteous

Tandon is a great new tech getting OJT which more employers should do. Keep up the good work. Happy Holidays. Jerry Gregory

I always feel that I'm treated well and everyone is so polite. Thank you for all your help in dealing with my eyes.

Everyone was super nice and helpful.

Professional exam and friendly staff made for a good experience

Dr. Ruckman always takes the time needed with his patients to address all their questions and is very knowledgeable and explains things in an understandable manner. His staff is always courteous and helpful as well. I highly recommend Eastern Sierra Eyecare to all.

On-time appointment, Efficient, Friendly. Thanks.

Checkup was thorough. Waiting for glasses and contac lenses to verify success.

Very polite staff and the doctor took the time to explain everything clearly

All very well

I was seen promptly. Stacie was very proficient with the equipment used before seeing the doctor and she seemed quite knowledgeable. Dr. Ruckman was very competent, thorough and helpful, as always.

Everyone at the practice is very helpful and pleasant. The doctor was very knowledgeable and helpful.

I am thankful that we found Dr. Ruckman for my husband. He has been the best ophthalmologist for my husband and knew about his kidney disorder when we told him. I’m very thankful for Dr. Ruckman and all of his office staff.

Got me in and out and everyone was friendly and professional as always.

Thanks for being helpful, patient and informative. I've been searching for an eye doctor that I like and I'll definitely be coming back.

Thank u dr ruckman & staff , for taking such great care of my eyes!

Friendly, gentle, efficient testing. Great staff. Excellent choice of frames and lenses with all the bells and whistles you want. Dr. Ruchman was extremely helpful and informative.

Very professional staff, nice, informative and knowledgeable! Would definitely recommend to others!

Great service!

Love Dr Ruckman’s taking time to explain the results of the tests and his thoroughness. He is always friendly and welcoming as is his outstanding staff.

It was great to meet Sami or Sammy, she is quite knowledgeable and personable.

Tandon was SO CUTE! He was very knowledgeable and very pleasant. Dr.Backmam was very nice to me and happily answered all my questions. The rest of the staff was wonderful! Great visit!

All the gals there made this a pleasant experience

I had and extremely good experience, probably the most thorough examination I’ve had in our area. The staff was very pleasant and attentive and couldn’t say enough about how good the doctor is. Thank you for a very good experience

Feel free to share this! Gary has been seen by more eye doctors than I can remember. Dr. Tuchman was by far the best. He was thorough and never rushed. He was quite nice and fun. The appointment actually started early. Whaaat? Lol The office staff was personable and knew their job. Here is the bottom line, I can see again. I was worried that might not happen. I am looking forward to not having dry eye symptoms anymore. I am going nowhere else. My highest recommendation!

There are many choices in Carson for eye care, but this is where you go if you want friendly, knowledge and professional eye care.

Great Doctor. Great service!!

Wonderful caring staff. Dr Ruckmann is very thorough and professional. I highly recommend this practice.

Great experience, everyone was very friendly and knowledgeable. The doctor explained all of my options and gave me recommendations without being pushy which was very appreciated. Highly recommend this office.

The staff was courteous and helpful. I always appreciate Dr Ruckman. Thank you for good care.

They were Great!

Thorghal exam and very cordial staff.

always 5 star, hard to find new superlatives. thanks for fitting me in, giving me your full attention, and alleviating my concerns.

Had a great experience will recommend them to anyone!

I appreciate the speed that your staff exhibited in getting me in to see you last Wednesday. I was slightly shaken by me hemorrhage experience and i want to thank you for putting me more at ease. As always it is a pleasure to have you on my healthcare team!

great

everyone was helpful and friendly. Answered all my questions. Made good suggestions. Took time and explained things to me. Good Job

Dr. Ruckman & his staff were extremely friendly & helpful. They made the visit positive all the way - Thank You!

Very thorough

Very professional, timely, friendly, knowledgeable and great service. Staff took care of business in a friendly and knowledgeable manner. Thank you.

Got appointment when needed on very short notice. Professional exam and service

They were short staffed, so I was in the office for nearly two hours. Everyone was apologetic and helpful, it was just a long time to be there.

Dr. Ruckman was very professional and personable. The entire staff was great.

Totally trust Dr. Ruckman and his team. They know what they're doing Chris Brins

Friendly and helpful staff. They performed extensive testing prior to the exam. The doctor was also very friendly. He took time to explain everything here was doing and why. He fully explained the results and discussed all of my options. He was unhurried and took the time to completely answer all of my questions. Actually looking forward to my next visit.

I was just impressed with everyone... made the process of switching doctors less stressful

Everyone was very very nice and friendly. I love this team!!!

Have ways taken good care of me when I come in.

Excellent and consistent. Super staff! Thx for good care. Jerry

Wonderful very thorough care. Feel very confident in Dr Ruckmans expertise.

I have been coming here for years! Everyone is so nice, Dr Ruckman is so personable which is awesome! I enjoy going yearly and visiting with all of them! They become family after you have been going as long as I have! Thanks y’all!

Amazing people, I love coming here because I feel very comfortable around.

Appt. On time, procedures fully explained, ordering new frames & lenses painless (though costly).

Friendly and informative. Wish we would have known about additional cost ahead of time for contact fitting.

All eye exams went well. The staff is always pleasant and it is a pleasure to see Dr. Ruckman.

Dr. Ruckman is the best! It is perfectly clear that he is extremely knowledgeable AND that he cares about his patients. The only area for improvement is that I think the techs/assistants should always wear a name badge and should always introduce themselves. I strongly recommend Eastern Sierra Eyecare.

Very helpful in understanding my situations

The technical folks here are professional and efficient. Dr. Ruckman spends time with you and has the latest information on eye care, which he explains in a manner that you can both understand and appreciate.

My exam was thorough and was performed efficiently. I was on my way in a reasonable amount of time. Still considering using my lense credit towards a pair of sunglasses.😎 Mark

Dr Ruckman and his staff are great. He always takes the time to explain everything and listens to concerns. He has been amazing in taking care of me with my chronic eye issues. His staff is very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended.

Happy to be able to see a doctor that I could understand. And the support staff made a seamless expedited experience.

Dr. Ruckman is a superb optometrist! Very thourough, modern equipment, and his personality is awesome. Great with Teens and all ages. Glad i made my first exam appt. with this office. A professional

Good experience. The entire staff was great.

Very thorough eye exam , but possibly some better medicine drop with shorter term eye dilation could be used as I was uncomfortable with the dialated eyes and even a light sensitivity headache for 2.5 hours still after leaving the office!!!

Always feel at home when I come to your office. I am grateful to Dr. Ruckman for referring me to the two eye specialists I see in Reno & Sparks. He got to the bottom of my problems & sent me to the best (I just wish my problems had a better prognosis).

Really awesome place to walk into. Really refreshing and you really get the care you need for your eyes which is so important. Highly recommend

Everyone was friendly and professional. It went very smoothly.

The epitome of a doctor who gives his total attention to you and your needs. Dr. Ruckman not only answers all of your questions, but anticipates some you may nor have thought to ask. His knowledge of your individual eye health history is remarkable.

I have,ALWAYS been treated excellent here! Dr. Rickman is a great guy how tells you up front what is happening! Thank you so much !

Amazing thorough and scientific and very caring

Quick service, no long wait, professional Staff, large selection of eyewear.

Great appt. had some small changes in vision, but I’m getting old so that’s ok. The ladies in the front office helped tremendously with repair on my current pair of glasses.

Post your public WiFi password. Cell service in waiting area is poor. Watched and client have to walk outside for this as well

My visits here are always awesome. Never a dull moment. The staff is friendly and very down to earth,If anyone is looking for eye care,this is the place to go.

You guys are consistently the best. We have been clients forever clear back thru Dr. Staub days. Your new building is a major improvement.

Thanks to Dr Ruckman for taking extra time during my appointment to answer questions and give suggestions about my cataracts. Much appreciated. Entire clinical staff was above average in communication skills and professionalism. Thanks!

I recommend this Eye exam office, for the simple fact that the Doctor is young,whipsmart,and knows his business.He has all the latest eye exam machines used for detecting problems in the eye. The only area that needs improved on is......Do not automatically assume I will buy glasses from you. The staff is trained to talk to you as if you are going to buy thier glasses. It makes me uncomfortable for a doctor or office staff to assume that. Every dollar counts,Thier prices are not outrageous, but still alot more than others.I always have a choice, but would like to make it myself.

Can you do me a favor please and mailed me my new prescription thank you

They are always fast and efficient! Everyone was so helpful and friendly!

Very thorough exam by compassionate employees. Did not get good news but was informed of my options and treatments. Frames are very expensive.

Hank you so much for a very nice visit and examination. I am looking forward to getting my new glasses. Thanks again

It was a wonderful experience. Especially enjoyed the high pressure sales job on a new pair of glasses😁, ha ha. All good.

Costumer service was excellent, professional, caring, time wise I didn't have to wait to long to get in, staff was wonderful, I wanted to thank you for the great service!

Everyone in the office was super friendly and informative. Thank you!

The staff are very efficient and extremely courteous. Not a place that one enjoys having to go to but much better than having to see your dentist twice a year. Dr Ruckman is very competent and takes enough time to be sure that one does not leave without any and all questions answered.

Every time I go to get my eyes checked I am treated with such respect and care from everyone that I feel right at home. My questions are answered to the fullest extent. Thank you all!!

Very through and very professional.

Outstanding care, service, and value. 5 Stars

What a fabulous and friendly staff. I came in as a first time patient not knowing what to expect. I was visiting from out of state. The staff treated me like I had been there a thousand times. So knowledgeable and warm and friendly. The doc is awesome too! I had a wonderful comprehensive exam and left with a beautiful script. Couldn’t recommend any place higher! Keep up the exemplary performance! Oh and give ALL your girls a dollar raise across the board! They deserve it! Seriously!

Friendly professional knowledgeable, patient

Absolutely the best doctors appointment ever. We felt very comfortable and welcomed. We have since recommended you to all family and friends.

Good

Good job, being on time with the appointment, friendly, nice chit-chat, New eye imaging equipment.

Everyone was super friendly. Dr Ruckman is the best and extremely knowledgeable on the problems with my eyes.

Dr ruckman and his staff took very good care of me, & very thoroughly checked out my eye issues. Dr ruckman is very knowledgeable, & I think the best eye doctor I have ever gone to. I feel very confident in the care I receive at his office.

Had a problem with my eyes was able to get in immediately.

From front desk to exam chair - top notch!

Competent & professional staff. Dr Ruckman is awesome. So much app his interest & teaching regarding my eye condition.

Always great. Professional, thorough and friendly.

Super friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Always timely, professional, and courteous.

The staff is very friendly and efficient. I always feel I’m in good hands.

Got me right in....even though I was a bit late. Your girls are very professional and friendly. The exam seems to be very thorough and employing the latest techniques. Looking forward to getting my new prescription...although I feel that my last one may have been incorrect. My fault, I should have come back right away and got the problem solved. I tend to “go along to get along”.

Everything! Always a pleasant experience

Friendly, efficient, professional staff through the entire visit! Tanya took the time to help me find my first pair of glasses ever! She’s great at what she does. Dr. Ruckman is kind & informative. Great visit!

I love going to my eye appointments here. The whole staff are great people and easy to talk to. I highly recommend going here for your eye care,you will not be disappointed.

No wait. Pleasant technician 👩‍🔧

You all are very awesome thank you very much !!!

The staff is always kind, professional and willing to help. Dr. Ruckman is very knowledgeable and uses cutting edge technology and diagnostic tools. My personal perscription for contacts was rare and Dr Ruckman and his staff had no problems with follow ups to make the vision and fit of my contacts just right. I tried at least ten brands of contacts and didn't pay a penny extra. They tackled my dry eye problems too! My family has gone to his office since he moved his practice to Nevada and have been happy ever since!

Everyone is always very helpful and very professional.

Highly trained staff who know what they are doing. Very professional

Dr R always does a thorough job on examination. Found an eyelash that had to be pulled as growing wrong way (very irritating) He also put me on a RX for dry eyes My only suggestion would be if he came into the exam room and said something like "I chris how are you doing?"

This was the most relaxed visit I have had in awhile. Everyone was in good spirits and I enjoyed myself.

Everyone was incredibly helpful, friendly, and patient, which made me feel at ease the whole time I was there. The staff was also organized and communicated well, especially in regards to their eco-friendly filing system (which I found amazing). The place ran smoothly from start to finish, and left me with nothing to complain about.

Everyone was so pleasant and friendly, and Dr. R even laughed at my jokes! Spent more $$$ than intended but looking forward to my super new specs! My only complaint is the appointment took way too long. 9:10 appt. and got out at 10:45!

Entire staff is amazing and the doctor takes the time to make sure I understand everything that is going on and what I can do about.

I love the Doctor and the lady’s in the office, but I do have to tell you that the lady at the front desk is not very nice at all. And she is the first person you see when you walk in the front door.

Professional and on time. Dr answered all concerns

I feel like my eyes are getting the best care possible. I highly recommend Dr. Ruckman and his facility.

Dr. Ruckman is the finest i have known over many years and cares about his patients.

Friendly knowledgeable staff nice clean and modern office, however I have always felt pressure to shop for lenses and frames in that store almost like a timeshare sales.

I felt very well taken care of by dr ruckman & his staff. I’m very pleased w the care & attention that I received & with how my issues were handled.

All good

Friendly courteous professional staff. Bright modern facility too.

As always, thorough and professional.

Thanks to all

Thorough exam and follow up.

Once again, a very comfortable and informative appt with Dr. Ruckman and staff Always fun too! Chris

Only problem was when getting my eyes checked with the Dr., two of the nurses were talking while the exam was going on and the Dr. had a hard time hearing me or the Dr. he had to repeat questions to me several times.

It was a good experience.

Kind, courteous, caring, professional team. Took the time to get to know me & answered all my cares & concerns.

Dr. Ruckman is very thorough and careful about listening to his patients. The staff was pleasant and timely.

All good, excellent care.

Served on time. Answered all my questions. Set up more efficient prescription delivery.

Excellent customer service -I always enjoy seeing the doctor and staff!

I really enjoy going to Eastern Sierra eye care the Dr. and all of the staff are very pleasant and knowledgeable. Thank you guys for being awesome

Friendly Staff. Loved the new space

Great office!

Love the visit

I really enjoyed my visit. Everyone answered my questions. The dr even took the time to show me what was going on in a picture so that I understood it. I will be recommending this office to my family and friends. You you all for a great experience

Monica was very thorough and pleasant.

Great professional service. Love all your STARWARS EQUIPMENT, almost like going to the movies! 😜👍

The entire appointment was good. The staff and Doctor Ruckman are excellent.

Staff has always been pleasant and helpful. Dr. Ruckman is wonderful. I am very grateful for the top notch care.

On time and very helpful

I was very, very impressed with the level of service provided by Dr. Ruckman especially, as well as the care taken by his technicians.

Always so very pleasant. The doctor is wonderful. He explains what is going on. Doesn't rush you. The office staff is great. I've been with this doctor over 5 years.

Exam was great. Prices for glasses seemed very high. Got a 2nd pair without coating at eyemart for about 1/4 the price

Super knowledgeable staff

My previous feedback was garbled because I added information later and accidentally hit submit. Pls discard and replace with this. My appt was my yearly comprehensive exam. Dr discussed thoroughly my cataracts and answered all my questions. But I left there not having been told about the overall health of my eyes, i.e. macular degeneration, peripheral vision, etc. Also tests were performed and I was not told the results of a retina test or optic nerve test other than that the cataracts were thought to have interfered with the quality of the images. Technician Brianna was doing the tests instead of the Dr, so she was not qualified to comment on the results. I am not the type of patient who is satisfied with 'no news is good news'. I believe it best to be informed and know the condition, good or bad, of all aspects of my eyes. I called the office and was told that i will be getting a call back. Thanks for reading.

Courteous and knowledgeable staff.

The exam went well and picking out glasses was very helpful

Always very good experience.

Always a great atmosphere and friendly staff. The new location is beautiful. Love this place

Very friendly and helpful!

Did everything well

Visit was good.

From beginning to end... a pleasant experience. Super knowledgeable people and helpful. Every question answered in easy to understand answers.

Professional Doctor and staff, nice new efficient
