I have been a patient of Dr. Mitchell's for a number of years. She is an excellent OD, very thorough, obviously cares about her patients, and is easy to talk to, readily explaining her findings and answering questions. A few years ago during an exam, she caught the fact that I had a detached retina; she was on the phone immediately, advising the eye surgery office and getting me an appointment right then. She is the best optometrist I have been to, and I will continue to be a patient.

The staff at the front check in were incredibly warm and accommodating. I drove in from two hours away and hit a snow storm, I called to let them know I wasn’t going to make it in time, but somehow they fixed things so I could still see the doctor when I finally arrived! Dr. Mitchell was incredible. Very thorough in her exam and making sure she had gathered all the information I could provide. I feel very confident going forward with the eye surgeon after seeing her. Very professional office and also incredibly friendly!

I rarely make recommendations, but this person. Is totally awesome at what she does! If you need a good eye doc in the Colorado Springs area that can fit you for any kind of contacts, included notoriously hard-to-fit sclera lenses, this is the one. I've also seen a couple of the surgeons in this group and they are fabulous as well. Just an all around great group of professional, knowledgeable, and talented people.
