Rhonda Mason WhitmanSeptember 14, 2026I have been going to 20/20 Eyecare for more than 45 years. After Dr. Pittenger retired whom I loved and highly respected, I started seeing Dr. James. She is great! She is very professional and knowledgeable. Dr. James offers current research and procedures that help us to work together on my eyecare needs. I have also recommended her to family, co-workers, and friends.Posted on Google
