I always have a great experience going here! Desert Family has that small town feel to it that I prefer over the bigger vision centers. The staff is very friendly and welcoming and are great at what they do! I always have trouble selecting glasses and they always give me their honest opinion and help me pick out what looks best on me!😁
Dr. Van Houten is awesome. He takes time to go over everything he sees in your eyes. They are using the latest technology here. I highly recommend choosing the Optomap screening instead the old dilation method. It gives you a very clear picture of your eyes and leaves you blurry free!
I easily rate Desert Family Vision Center as a 10 out of 10!

I had a great experience at this eye doctor’s office. The staff was friendly, professional, and made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. My eye exam was thorough, and they took the time to answer all of my questions and explain everything clearly.
They also helped me choose both my glasses and sunglasses, making the process easy and stress-free. The team was patient, knowledgeable, and helped me find options that fit my needs perfectly.
I’m very happy with the service I received and would highly recommend this office to anyone looking for quality eye care and excellent customer service.

Very helpful and friendly staff. Dr. Van Houten was exceptionally knowledgeable and straightforward. He explained macular degeneration and cataracts to me in layman’s terms. He was also very nice and made me feel comfortable.

I arrived for my appointment a little early and did not wait long before a skilled technician took me to a pre exam room to do all the preliminary tests. Once I was placed in a regular exam room it was but a few minutes until Dr. Ferrin came in. He went through the process of ascertaining my need for a new prescription and also alerted me to potential medical issues. He willingly clarified all my questions and calmed my anxiety about future procedures. The next tech was very friendly suggesting I select a new paid of frames for my new prescription. I had to attend to other things so I paid my copay and went on my way. It was overall a very pleasant experience!
