"The best"
Dr. Shumaker is the best! He is very professional, extremely patient and does not rush you when checking your vision. I have been going to Dr. Shumaker for many years and his personal attention to detail and his knowledge make him so special. He invests in great technology that gives us more information than just our eyes but now even about nutrition. I always feel I get the best care, his staff is great also.

"No More Glasses!"
I’m thrilled with the care I received at Rising Star! Initially, I was unsure if they could help with my eye issues, but their personalized training plan and regular check-ins made all the difference. After just four months, I no longer need corrective glasses. Huge thanks to the team—I’m so excited to have my vision back!
