TESTIMONIALS
Highly Recommended
I received great service here, from getting help choosing a pair of glasses to really exceptional care in working through some billing/insurance issues. I didn't expect to be treated so well after even my first visit.
I love this place. The doctor is so caring and truly puts in an effort to make sure you are satisfied. The front staff helped me pick out my glasses and they were so helpful and honest. Also the receptionist has a wonderful personality and made my day with her bubbly attitude. Thank you lifetime
I have been in the Boise area for 6+ years and have never been disappointed or let down. Each receptionist is always helpful and has treated me like a loyal patient. Dr Murray is great at what he does and I’ll always use lifetime optometry as my primary optometrist!
Best optometrist in Boise! Dr Murray and staffs are so professionals, my glasses were very affordable and I got them a lot faster than my old place. Very friendly staffs, and a large selection of frames! Thank you for a great service from a very happy costumer!
I love my optometrist! He is absolutely amazing and we always have great conversations during my visit. I wish that I could remember the lady who helped me pick out my beautiful frames because she was also wonderful! She was very patient and worked hard to find frames that were right for me and in my price range.
My first experience was with my daughter. I liked how friendly and personable he was so I started going myself. He always has a story about an experience that surprised him. I highly recommend him to anyone searching for an optometrist
