Dr. Schanel is outstanding. He is thorough, listens closely, asks key questions about the client's needs. I have gone to other optometrists and ophthalmologists when I have lived in other places and I keep coming back to Dr. Schanel. He is kind, knowledgable, and extremely experienced. He has been an exceptional member of my physical care team for all of my adult life and he will be missed by me and many others when he retires.
