Optometric Associates of Southern Maine

Been having dry eye issues for 5 months. My regular eye dr didn't seem to take to much care so I went here to get new opinion and care. Dr. Janelle Levesque was simply amazing. She took the time to explain the problem and the care routine I should follow, gave me samples of eye drops, and acted like she genuinely cared. Also, the front of house was simply awesome - so friendly and personable. I would highly recommend!

The staff from the front desk to the doctors are kind and attentive. Dr. Lehouillier and his techs are always thorough in their examinations and I learn something new about eyes at each visit. Notably, they are patient and work very well with children. They do a wonderful job answering my kids many, many questions.

I love Dr Lavesque and can highly recommend her. Kind, thorough, attentive, knowledgeable. She walks me through everything we are looking for (I go yearly for preventative appointment to ensure no T1D complications). Also grateful for the option to use the technology that replaces the need to dilate my eyes. I have to admit though, I would NEVER get new glasses here. My mom won't even come back for eye exams after dealing with the staff in that area and I wouldn't either if I didn't like Dr. Lavesque as much as I do.

I am temporarily in the area and needed to find new glasses. I walked in started looking for frames. There was one younger gentleman fully engaged with the customer he was working with at the time.I was encouraged I would walk out satisfied observing this exchange. Some time passed while I tried glasses on solo. Another gentleman came and asked, "Who are you?" I told him my name and he told me I was suppose to sign in. He sat down with a customer who had just walked in. Shortly after, a woman came and told me to put glasses I had tried on in a tray. (I did not know-having tried on many pair!) I told her what I was looking for and she directed me to a display with 3 or 4 frames and she walked away. I continued to try multiple glasses on solo. Now and again she commented but was not engaged in helping me. After 5-10 minutes-I walked out. Days later I had a totally opposite experience at another local optical shop. It was fun and I bought 2 pairs of glasses. ($$$$!) I got honest direct feedback with a technician who was enthusiastic in finding something I was happy to wear. She considered the shape of my face and my coloring. Wish my first experience was not so dismal.

This place is the best always so nice and the gentleman who deals with picking out/fixing glasses is such a sweetheart thank you all

This is not the same caring friendly place that not only me but my family has gone to for years . Dr.Bolduc Junior and senior Dr. Bolduc are a great loss, wish his son had kept the business.

They are all very professional but one side note for improvement is, everything in the waiting room from doors opening and shutting to the optical employees consulting with a customer is so incredibly loud!

I recently had an annual routine exam here and was very satisfied with the care I received. The front desk welcomed me with smiling faces, time spent in the waiting room was minimal, and the tech Taylor who did the pre examination was courteous, professional, and efficient. I appreciated her explanations of each machine and what she was checking for. My exam with Eric was the most thorough I've had for an eye exam. I didn't feel rushed and appreciated the time he took to go over concerns he had with my optical images and how the issues can be monitored. Even the checkout receptionist Lisa had a bubbly personality and was super friendly! Happy to say my experience here was quite pleasant from start to finish.
