Midwest Eye Associates ReOpening & Offering Appointments!
COVID-19 Update – May 10th: While we are primarily reserving appointments in the early weeks of re-opening for those of you who have an urgent need for glasses and contacts or emergent care, we are eager to get all of our patients back on track with their care as soon as possible. Please call our office to reschedule any appointment missed due to our recent closures. We will fit you into our schedule as time allows or add you to our waiting list should appointment availability open up in the next few weeks.
We love our patients! If our doctors and team members seem a little less talkative than on past visits, it is to limit time spent in close proximity and to allow for social distancing, running on time, etc. Thank you in advance for your understanding!
We look forward to welcoming you back to our practice. Rest assured we will continue to deliver your eye care services in a safe and clean environment.
