Always the best eye care! Perhaps not the cheapest, but Always the best. Dr. AXELSON is AMAZING, and so is the rest of the staff I interfaced with! 11-2-25
I had an all around great experience at Twin Cities Eye Consultants! From Check-in to check-out it was a warm and comforting experience! Dr. Chad Kalil was very kind, very knowledgeable, and made me feel at ease and gave me great confidence in his expertise! He gave me assurance and peace of mind! Thanks so much!
A cordial greeting, very little wait time, a knowledgeable staff plus Dr. Johnson’s calm, professional manner makes Twin Cities Eye in Chaska my choice for vision care. My cataract surgery & interocular lens placement were performed by Twin Cities Eye as well. I know I couldn’t be on better hands…
Everyone that I saw was very nice and friendly. Dr. Scott Peterson was quick to action on an eye emergency and wasted no time. He got the ball rolling right away and I would have had surgery the same day if I would have been able to find a ride right away. Because of his quick response and serious concern, I was able to get in the next day under 24hrs.
Wonderful appointment. All of my questions were answered and put me at ease about the procedure needed for my eyes.
I wish I could rate my experience a 100 stars. The results have exceeded all my expectations. The procedure was quick and painless. I cried all the way home with joy because I could read road signs and read license plates. It was honestly like a miracle. This is the best decision I could have ever made.
Always have a good experience. Dr Eggeman is awesome. He listens and is caring and helpful. Thank you!
I had cataract surgery back in March with Dr Fields. He is an incredible doctor and have only positive feedback regarding him as a Doctor. Unfortunately, my surgery resulted in a retina tear, followed by a gas bubble being inserted. A month later it tore again, and silicone gas and buckle placed in it. Dr Fields was very supportive in any questions regarding the healing process and the condition of my eye. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing eye surgery or any having any other issues with their eyes. Definitely 5 stars!⭐️
These guys are the best. Friendly. I can be seen when i have. Medical need. Theres follow up. Dr Hammond is great
I stopped by to get my new glasses and Tristen Melter, ABOC optician did a great job helping me find the kind of glasses I was looking for and did a great job fitting them when they were ready to wear. Thank you .
Friendly, caring and professional!
I have been seeing Dr. E. For many years now. Great bedside manners. You can tell he cares. I’ll never stop seeing him unless he retires. Please don’t!!!
As always, I was extremely pleased with Dr. Schaefer ‘s hearing and understanding my concerns and his care. A doctor that I trust and knows my conditions. Thanks Dr. Schaefer!
Always a joy to have Dr. S. Check my eyes. Been a wonderful doctor and great work staff.
The staff are all accommodating and Doctor Becky Youg takes good care of me for my eye health.
A great atmosphere and great experience, can’t complain about my treatment, I will recommend Twin Cities Eye Consultants.
Attentive service was timely and people friendly.
I was very happy with my appointment with Dr. Schaefer. He is so nice as is everyone in the office including the front desk.
Dr. Patrick Johnson was great. He has a wonderful bedside manner. He was very informative, answered all of my questions and put me at ease for my procedure. would highly recommend him.
I was very comfortable with Chad. He explained everything in detail that I could understand. I was very impressed with him when I had my cataracts done and wanted to continue seeing him in the future. He does a great job.
Dr. Hammond is a peach. He listens to me and offers suggestions. He’s always helpful and has worked with me for years to help me find a routine that allows me to me to live with my dry eyes.
Dr. Jund and his Nurse did a very thorough assessment of my eyesight. The lady in the optical area helped to find me new glasses for a great price. This group has been my preferred eye care group for over 45 years.
I was at another office in the building and popped in here to see if they could tighten my glasses. The woman who helped me was SO gracious and tightened them perfectly and so quickly. She was so kind to my young son who was with me, too.
I’ve been seeing dr.chous for almost 25 years. Always a great experience! Thank you!
Dr. Mackner, knowledgable, informative and patient friendly…… I give him an A+❣
Always look forward to my eye appointment. with Dr. S. He is the best 🙂
Excellent chair side interaction. Very thorough. Considerate. Pleasant personality. Is actually prepared upon arrival by having read past history before entering the exam room. Shows concern about present and future. Does not rush through the exam. Very glad I switched over to her a few years back when my previous doctor reassigned his patients.
Kept me informed, tests seemed thorough, staff was pleasant, Dr Wandling and his tech answered my questions! Great experience!
I’m very pleased with every aspect of Twin Cities Eye Consultants. From my initial eye exam with Dr. Patrick Johnson to first of two cataract surgeries. Everything explained and done efficiently. My post cataract surgery visit with Dr. Becky Yeung was short, sweet and consistent with my previous appointments—great! Highly recommend!
Great staff and very knowledgeable. Did not have to wait long for my visit. Dr explained everything I was experiencing was normal for my procedure and made me feel at ease.
The entire staff and the Doctor were awesome. They were all very friendly and explained everything they were going to do.
Bridget C Alexson, OD, was recommended 2 years back from another specialist in retina eye care. Both my husband and I are so happy we have her as she explained eye age related vision process and gives a very thorough examination. We would both recommend her to anyone.
Very pleased with the high quality of care, attentiveness, and professionalism.
It was an extraordinary experience, with excellent service and great communication. I highly recommend it — I give it a 10 out of 10.
We had a fantastic experience ! The staff were incredibly kind, patient, and attentive to our child’s needs. The eye exam was thorough, and the doctor explained everything in a way that was easy for us to understand. Serene felt comfortable and cared for throughout the visit. Highly recommend for any parents looking for a caring and professional eye clinic for their children!
The team was very nice. The nurses were incredibly helpful and the doctor was also super friendly and helpful.
Dr. Axelson were very punctual, efficient, kind and caring. They walked me thru every steps and answered all my questions. I’ve found my new eye doctor.
Dr. Chad Kalil is one of the best eye doctors. He takes the time to listen to your concerns, provides explanations, reasons and options. He explains things so you can understand them. Then he makes sure he’s addressed your concerns, and asks that you call his office with any further concerns before your next appointment.
Dr Folden with TCEC was great to work with and very knowledgeable. I had cataract surgery first and a few months later an PRK enhancement. I am very grateful and happy to say that my vision has stabilized and I now can see very clearly even though I am still in the healing process from the PRK surgery. I highly recommend Dr Folden if you are seeking cataract or PRK surgery. I would like to thank the TCEC staff and Dr Folden for there help and assistance with my eye correction surgery. 😊
Very nice. Easy to talk to I thanked him for being on duty to care about my needs on the 4th of July.
I feel I need to share how good my visit was. The employees that helped me were AMAZING. Aqsa, Dr. Boots, and even the receptionist were kind, helpful and quick to help me. This is a well deserved Grade A business!!
Good visit- both Reggie and Dr Axelson pleasant and very thorough.
Cleared me to renew my driver’s license without glasses. Yay!!!
Dr. Stephens is not only very professional and qualified, he is also very personable and friendly. He spent time getting to know me and learn about my family and my life and it felt more like going to see an old friend (who happens to be an expert) so that he could help me see more effectively. I highly recommend Dr. Stephens and Twin Cities Eye Consultants!!!
Dr. Yeung is personable and establishes a solid relationship with her patients. She took good care of me when I had a vision splitting problem a few years ago. She listens and offers good options in responding to my questions and concerns.
This is a great place for eye care. They are thorough and take time during exams to cover all eye concerns. The doctor and entire staff is wonderful.
My son had a wonderful and comprehensive eye exam. Dr. Schmitz took her time, answered questions, and was incredibly informative on what our next steps would be. I’m happy to have found an eye doctor that I trust for myself and my family.
I had a very good experience at Twin Cities Eye Consultants. Dr. Schaefer and the staff were excellent.
Very quick to schedule an initial evaluation. Courteous, friendly staff. When I arrived I was roomed promptly and Dr Peterson was promptly in the room with me. He reviewed all scans and gave detailed explanations that even i could understand.
I appreciate it to help that the team gave me I appreciate the doctor for the knowledge he advised me they was very professional they are good people a good team to know
Dr. Kluss is the most caring eye doctor our family has ever had! She always has a smile on her face! She listens to you intently and answers any questions and concerns that we have. Our appointments never feel rushed. She will be our eye doctor always!! Highly recommend her!!
Efficient front office staff. Promptly seen by the excellent technician. Waited less than 5 minutes until the doctor completed the exam. Excellent!
Prior to my visit at Twin Cities Eye Consultants, I had another LASIK consult at another facility that felt very impersonable. I had the complete opposite experience at TCEC. Cory was so friendly, detail-oriented, and knowledgeable. In addition, Dr. Everson was very prompt and informative. It was refreshing to have an in-person consult with a doctor. In conclusion, I felt very comfortable and am looking forward to my LASIK procedure with TCEC!
I came to this appointment with anxiety after seeing another doc who told me I had serious MD& needed to see specialist asap. Dr Schaefer was professional, explained all that I asked & assured me that I did not have major changes since previous exams. We agreed I will return in 6 months. I left feeling I had a thorough appointment with real expert. Thanks Dr S who will be my current eye specialist. Will share my experience as well. Excellent appointment!
They squeezed me in as a new patient on the same day I called, and after 2 days of treatment I’m already feeling some relief!
Great job explaining his diagnosis. Seemed extremely knowledgeable and did not talk down to you. He had a good energy! He also did my mother-in-laws eyes and she is still thrilled with the results.
I was able to get an appointment quickly once I explained the issues I was experiencing. I had a thorough exam and an explanation that allayed my concerns. It was a positive experience all the way around.
Dr. Paul Hammond was great at explaining my symptoms and how we needed to proceed with my treatment.
This was a cheerful & comfortable experience for me. I felt like I was listened to & appreciated his feedback.
Dr Jund was very friendly, attentive and quick efficient with my appointment.
I love this company. They’ve always taken care of me. They always take my holistic health picture into mind when treating me and they’re always there when I need them. On this occasion I had something in my eye they were able to get me in the same day and take care of it right away! Excellent location and practice!
Excellent care. The results were great. Dr. Folden. Thank you. Life changing results.
Knowledgeable and compassionate staff. Dr. Folden thoroughly explained everything and took the time to answer all my questions. I’m confident I picked the right doctor to perform my surgery!
Dr Amanda Schmitz is amazing. She is always listening to what you say. My entire family sees her and I am delighted with her professional yet very personable demeanor.
Dr. Stephens and staff were very professional and able to schedule me quickly even coming from out of state.
He really listened to all my concerns and answered all my questions. Explained everything very well for me to understand.
Dr. Peterson was AWESOME. HE WAS FUNNY AND VERY PATIENT WITH ME. JUST LIKE HE SAID MY EYE FELT MUCH BETTER THE VERY NEXT DAY AND I THINK THE VISION HAS IMPROVED JUST LIKE HE SAID IT WOULD. THANK YOU DR. PETERSON.
Doctor seemed very professional – kind, caring and patient. He explained his observations.
My experience was wonderful. They got me in before my appointment, my Doctor Calvin was amazing and very helpful. Will definitely be going back to see him again then very friendly service.
The doctor was able to diagnose my issue very quickly and was quite prompt. Very friendly as well. Excellent experience.
Everyone in the office was caring and professional. They went above and beyond to explain and help me with everything
Excellent, timely care. I was early but the wait was just minutes before I was called back to begin the exam. Everything was totally well done.
The doctor was very clear explaining my situation to me. I previously was to a specialist and felt I was on an assembly line in and out. Dr. Field gave the time to help me understand my eye situation. I heard more from him in one appt than years at a specialist.
The doctor was communicating very clearly and giving detailed info about the conditions of my eyes. I am very pleased with the treatment done.
Dr Hammond is an exceptional optometrist who has earned my trust. His clinical expertise is only matched by his empathy for patients who require management of complex pathologies.
I thought everything went well. Got in early. Everyone is very helpful and pleasant! I asked questions they were answered well. I was pretty nervous. I had more questions but I forgot my questions! Excellent
Dr Johnson explained all aspects of dry eye to me, and did not immediately go to prescription drops. Outlined many things I could do to alleviate symptoms. Trying these things first. I appreciate this approach.
Everyone was very friendly! Mindi, Damon and Dr. Mackner were fantastic! Each of them took their time with me and didn’t make me feel rushed. All of my questions were answered. I will be back!
Friendly staff, short wait time. Dr Schaefer listens and explains questions.
Always a successful appointment seeing Dr. Stephens. Staff is always so polite.
Had a new retina problem and it was explained carefully, and handled professionally. Very appreciative of Dr. Peterson and staff.
I am glad I have a place to go that really is good with eye care. Thank you for checking my eyes.
I was treated very well by the staff and the doctor. They explained what they were doing and gave me the results.
A good experience. Dr. Schaefer took his time and really explained my eye problem and solution. His staff was professional and very well coordinated in getting various tests done.
Getting quality care from Dr. Kalil for many years !!! Explains everything so I understand going forward!!! Very comfortable with him as my eye consultant since I have Sjogrens disorder. All staff there are very nice and helpful. Great place to visit yearly !! Thank you,
Just perfect and answered my questions and completely professional.
Dr. Schmidt is just the best. Gave me a perfect prism to correct my double vision. She explained perfectly and completely future treatment for glaucoma, and probably will need cataract surgery soon. Made me feel very comfortable that my issues are very treatable. Just love her!
Dr. Kluss is amazing. My husband and I have gone to her for many years. She goes above and beyond in finding solutions and ensuring that our eye care needs are met. I’d recommend Dr. Kluss to friends and family in a heartbeat.
Great information from the doctor and health team for my upcoming surgery. Modern equipment and testing was very thorough! I’m confident and looking forward to the results from my surgery. Thank you.
Service was excellent and I felt like they truly cared about helping me figure out what was wrong with my eye.
I visited due to a recommendation after a routine checkup. I was so impressed with the care and concern from Dr. Peterson.He was able to explain the next best step with degree of seriousness all without scaring me. I truly appreciate his professional support and honesty this left me feeling like I was very lucky to have found a Dr. like this. I thank him again for taking the time to explain things so Impeccably. Great visit!
Marlene was amazing! Very professional and answered all my questions.
This clinic always has friendly staff. Dr. Kalil is very knowledgeable and answers my questions in ways that I can understand.
My experience At twin city eye consultants was very satisfactory. I have the beginning of macular degeneration So I was anxious to know what was going on. Doctor Stevens was very thorough and helpful In educating me about what was going on with my eyes.
All went well with my annual eye check up. No problems or issues. Got to meet my new Dr. And was satisfied that he’s young and will be a good fix for the Twin Cities Eye Clinic
Helpful, friendly, professional!!
Dr Peterson and staff were awesome. From getting in a timely manner to explaining my situation and how to deal with it. Makes you feel good about it. Explained things in a way you can relate to
Fantastic. Knowledgeable and explains everything in detail. If you have any questions he didn’t answer, just ask, and he will take care of it.
Very helpful with questions. Overall very happy with all they do. They go out of their way to make you comfortable. Glad I picked this establishment when I moved here.
Dr. Eggimann and his nurse took the time to answer all my questions. I felt like my eyecare was important to them, and I was not rushed. I highly recommend Dr. Eggimann and his staff.
All good! Appointment was easily made, reception great, Joey the assistant very professional and positive and Dr. Stephen’s is the best.
Doctor Jund and his whole team were awesome! We could tell they definitely cared about their patients and took time with us! First time at this clinic and it was the best experience we have had with an eye clinic!
Doctor and staff very nice and did great services. Thank you
We enjoyed this visit, good news always helps. Great doctor, good medical information at length and speaking loudly for aged adult.
Great communication, respectful, honest, informative and detailed Thank you for your Great care. Highly recommend
Cataract surgery was an amazing experience from start to finish. Dr. Folden was great! Everything was very prompt and professional. I had great results also.
A visit to Dr. Axelson put my concerns to rest. She is always professional and takes the time to explain all areas of concern. I drive almost an hour to see her because she is that good. I did try another optometrist closer to me (once) but, after problems, I returned to her for the right prescription. Having been her patient for nearly 12+ years, I don’t plan on switching my health care as long as she is practicing. My eye sight is too important to trust to just anyone.
I was treated with respect, heard and seen by Twin Cities Eye and Dr. Mackner. My eye health is important to them and I’m grateful for these professionals to walk with me as I pursue continued health.
Dr Stevens and staff provided prompt, efficient service, listened actively, and explained my situation clearly. What’s more, they made sure that I understood what I needed to watch for in the future and when to seek emergency care, all in a calming, intentional, and reassuring way. Everyone I’ve encountered in this practice has been caring, respectful, friendly, and professional as they have delivered timely, appropriate care.
Felt very comfortable with you. Explained the details as to what was happening
Dr. Stephens has been my eye doctor for countless years. I credit him and his staff for keeping my eyes in good shape now and in years to come.
Very pleasant visit, everyone was nice and respectful, the doctor made sure I understood every procedure done and shared my results with me.
Thank you for checking out my eye. I felt really taken care of and reassured that everything will be be awesome in the end . Thank you
I saw Priyanka Kanakamedala, MD at Twin Cities Eye Consultants in Blaine. I highly recommend her if you need a cornea specialist. She & her team work well together & are very personable. She takes time to explain everything.
Dr. Mackner is very thorough and describes each step of the exam. He is personable and polite. I will return.
Good care all around
Dr. Schmitz listened to my concerns and informed me what she could do to help my situation. The prescription that she said would help me was too expensive so she told me to call back for a lesser prescription that would do the same thing. I’ve never had a Dr. suggest an alternative solution they would just say that’s just way it is. I felt that she helped me understand what was going on with my eyes and what she could do help me fix it.
Dr. Stephens is very vigilant keeping track of my eye pressures to keep my glaucoma in check.
He put my mind at ease and even made me laugh Laughter is the best medicine. I felt that I could trust him right away, and I’m usually not that trusting. Now let’s see him in June 6th 🙏🙏🙏🤗
Dr was very pleasant. Answered all our questions.
I had an excellent experience at the Edina location!! I hadn’t been to the eye doctor for quite sometime and really wasn’t looking forward to it, but Dr. Mackner was great and made me feel very comfortable. Connor in optical was amazing! He really took the time to work with me. He explain things in detail and got me into a great pair of glasses! Thank you everyone!!
Outstanding Doctors and Staff, many convenient locations
I am very pleased with the medical service provided by Twin Cities Eye Specialists. My appointment was timely and the examination was thorough. Doctor Kalil is a caring eye specialist who genuinely cares about the welfare of his patients.
I have seen Dr. Stephen’s for over 20 years. He and his staff are exceptional. I highly recommend!
Best Dr ever. He actually takes the time to listen to you and explain what is going on. My last Dr just kept me coming back for shots. He actually said no need for them anymore!
Staff were friendly and efficient. Didn’t have to wait as very timely. Dr. Schafer answered all my questions
Very nice experience, only took about 30 minutes and both the doctor and the tech that got me ready to see Dr. Jund were really pleasant to deal with.
Dr. Boots and his staff does good work, very professional. I was referred to the Northwest eye clinic for a glaucoma screening after aye exam. The exam was thorough and to my surprise the good Dr Boots told me did not glaucoma and my eyes looked just fine. Either way this could’ve went knowing is a piece of mind. Now my mind is at ease. Mt parents have been coming to this clinic for some years and have nothing but good to say about Dr Boots and the staff.
Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Dr Everson is very thorough and detailed with his examination explanation.
Thorough annual check up. I have full faith in his opinions.
Dr. Fields was very professional and knowledgeable. Also, his manner makes it easy to share your concerns. His hands are very steady, which leads me to believe he is a good surgeon. He will be my choice for cataract surgery when I need it as he has plenty of experience.
Just had my annual eye exam at Twin Cities Eye Consultants in Shakopee. Dr. Andrew Mackner did a wonderful job. The staff were very friendly. I highly recommend this office for your eye care!
The atmosphere, the service and the environment is great! I had an appointment on May 5th and the technician who helped me was amazing! Also, Dr. Linda Choi’s is always very knowledgeable, professional, attentive, respectful, helpful, friendly and kind. I always have a great experience!
My experience here with Dr Stevens has been amazing. He is very thorough and clear in diagnosing and regarding best options for the pt. His assistant Jenny is also amazing with fast response time and going the extra mile to make things work for the pt. I have two Cataract surgeries scheduled and could not feel more confident that I am in the best care ever! Thank you!!!
David Folden and his team have restored my site at 61. I’ve had corrected vision since I was 15. Twin Cities Eye Consultants have a seamless process and well, he’s the best cataract surgeon-for my eyes, I wanted the best and robotic technology. I chose to travel from St. Cloud, MN and would recommend Dr. Folden, his partners and his staff for all of your cataract needs. A+
Dr Eggiman was very thorough. He looked thru my last few years exam history from a different clinic and explainied why he thought cataract surgery was warranted. I felt comfortable following.
Visit was for my girlfriend and the DR was very understanding of her eye problem. Helped with drops to temporarily numb her eye and then a prescription wish we could have the drops but not so good long term lol
The experience was great. Would recommend it!
My experience was great. Thank you so much for addressing my concerns regarding blurry and fuzzy vision. I was nervous about what could be wrong. I’m gratefully relieved and in doing the drops it seems to have taken care of the issues. I truly appreciate Dr Schaefer’s caring and concern and checking everything to make sure nothing was wrong. Thanks so much again.
Got in at a timely manner. The Dr. was great and very knowledgeable about my situation and helpful.
Two years ago I woke up with a bunch of white matter in my right eye. I was told I had dry eye. I went to another clinic in the twin cities who had doctors that dealt with dry eyes. I had 10 visits in a year and a half and no results. I still woke up every morning with white mucus in my right eye. I searched the internet to see who was an expert in dry eyes and found doctor Kuzas at twin cities eye consultants. My very first visit with her she said I can fix that mucus in your right eye. She fixed it in the first month.Wow!
Comfortable facility. Staff all friendly and welcoming. The female staff member that did my scans etc. was relaxed, explained everything. Dr Folden is calm, kind, thoroughly explained everything and willing to talk out my options. Did not feel rushed. He instilled trust and I feel confident in his care.
Very professional, made me feel at ease with the appointment. Dr. Stephen’s was wonderful. Answered all my questions. Overall great appointment. Thank you !
Very good experience
Very professional and personal. Took time to address all of my concerns and made sure I had no further questions before I left. Definitely would recommend him to family and friends!
Wonderful service. Everyone is attentive to my needs & great listeners.
Doctor Schaefer answered all my questions thoroughly. He was also very patient & comforting which assistance in all my fears & anxieties to vanish. I went in totally afraid & left with a great understanding of what’s to expect going forward & feeling very hopeful. By far, Dr Schaefer is the most pleasant & knowledgeable eye Dr. I’ve ever had. The pleasure to meet for my eye health.
Dr. Golden and all the staff are super kind and I can tell they are so knowledgeable because they can answer every question I have with grace. Eye stuff is so nerve wracking for me so I am glad they are reassuring the whole time.
Very professional eye clinic. Dr Ryan Johnson is very knowledgeable
I have been going to this clinic for years. I always receive excellent service. Everyone from the receptionist to the optometrist are caring and patient with questions. I would recommend this Clinic to anyone.
I was very impressed with Dr. Peterson. He explained everything clearly and the injection was painless. I would highly recommend Dr. Scott Petersen.
Takes time to answer questions… doesn’t make you feel “dumb” asking the questions..
Dr Peterson always puts my eye care at the top of his priority list and always explains the what, why and the how of any procedure as well as the expected outcomes of the same. Ian both pleased and impressed by his care.
My appointment was to evaluate my eyes regarding a future cataract surgery, and Dr. Iverson, and his examination “wing man “Joey, we’re both professional and congenial for their parts in my exams.
I feel confident that I am receiving excellent care, they quickly found a macular hole a few years ago, saved my eyes. Check in was fast, wait time was minimal and all my concerns were answered.
