I would highly recommend Dr. Shield’s office for your optometry needs. Everyone is courteous, friendly, and professional. They were very accomodating when making my eye appointment at the end of the day so I didn’t have to take time off of work. Three of my children are also patients and we are always satisfied.

Last night I was leaving for a business trip to Omaha. Realized I had left my glasses at home in Simi Valley. All ok… until I tore a contact!
This amazing group coordinated with an wonderful optometrist in Omaha. New lens. Sooo thankful I can see. For both of the professional eye groups, knowing my Rx, huge! Thank you all for making it happen!

My family and I have been going to Dr. Shields for over 20 years. He is friendly and always provides the best care. He is very patient with me and my daughter when ever we need contact adjustments. The staff is very friendly, at times they are busy but they will always make time for you when needed. The staff is also great with dealing with the insurance company. I always refer him to my friends and colleges.

I was recommended to Dr. Shields by a friend of mine. Very social and knowledgeable. He’s got pretty new equipment. The bottom line is that I really like my glasses; much clearer and sharper than my last optometrist was able to do.

I’ve been going to this office since it was Dr. Niedermann’s office in the 80’s. Dr. Shields is a kind human and a wonderful doctor. 95% of the time, his staff is just as excellent. I did encounter one person there who was not always pleasant, but it absolutely does not detract from the doctor that Sam Shields is. I would ask that people reading these reviews would ignore Tanya, as she got all bent because they wouldn’t sell her a «not for resale» sample, simply because she walked in and asked for it.
20+ years of excellent service from a really wonderful office.

I have been to one Ophthalmologist and two different doctors of optometry in Simi Valley since my vision began to change in my 40’s. Dr. Shields has been the best and my favorite. He takes time to address any questions I have. I’ve never felt rushed. The equipment in the office is modern and is updated as needed. The facility is spotless. I’ve never had to wait more than 5 minutes. Dr. Shields is highly personable and friendly. The staff always remember who I am and are helpful. I highly recommend Dr. Shields.

I was a few minutes late and they took me right in! Dr. Shields explained everything to me in clear terms and the assistants in the front office easily helped me find new frames. I have gone to this practice for years and continue to do so.

I’ve been going to this optometrist office for over 40 years, ever since they were located on Township Ave. Dr. Shields is my third optometrist. He is very professional. The office staff are helpful and friendly. It’s a bit like «Cheers.» I only call once a year for my annual exam, but they remember my name. That’s why I drive 70 miles from Orange County to visit. I have never had to wait over a week for an appointment.

I’m in my mid 40’s and went to Dr. Shields for my very first pair of reading glasses. He and his staff were fantastic. Very friendly, I had very little wait time to see the doctor, and Dr. Shields was awesome! What a great guy and really appreciated how he explained what he saw in my eye exam and provided recommendations on the best type of lens to select. I will definitely go back. My wife and daughter have also had good experiences here as well.
