Long wait, but we'll worth it. Once in the exam room, each test was explained to me and performed quickly and without incident. Tech (Harley )was obviously familiar with each test and equipment, was friendly, and put my mind at ease. A real asset to this practice. Dr Hester, owner of the practice, thoroughly explained the results of each test, and any corrections that were necessary. He adjusted his schedule to perform a quick, needed corrective procedure. Procedure was quick and successful. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Hester to others.

The reception for this first time client was exceptional - warm, engaging and efficient. Preliminary examination was thorough and even educational mixed with animated and fun conversation. Dr. Hester could not have been more comfortable to be with sharing common interests. Most importantly, he was unrelenting in his examination of the eyes, sharing his observations and advice, leaving you with one comforting conclusion: "This is a doctor whom I can trust implicitly!" The experience at Hester Ophthalmology was superb for which I am most grateful. Thank you all. John

Dr. Hester is good, but do not go to him unless you want to wait three to four hours for your appointment -- every time. He has no respect for your time .

I have experience with being the patient of a few different ophthalmologist Dr Hester is hands down my first choice. And my past doctors were wonderful. I hope I'm never in the position to have to find another.

Been going here for a few years now. It is a small office with great staff. Very good listeners and attentive to my needs. Exam is thorough and Dr. Hester takes the time to fully discuss your checkup with you.
