DR. DAVID BALDWIN IS SEEING PATIENTS AT OUR SEDALIA OFFICE!

From the time he received his first pair of glasses in second grade, Dr. Baldwin knew he wanted to be an eye doctor. He decided that it was “the coolest job ever,” and what he enjoys most about optometry is the ability to improve his patients’ lives — those unforgettable moments where he knows that he has truly made a difference.

Although he has lived in Kansas City, St. Louis, and North and South Carolina, Dr. Baldwin was born and raised in Sedalia, Missouri. He returned to serve his hometown by providing high-quality eye care, and he welcomed the opportunity to be more involved in the community in which he grew up. Outside the office, Dr. Baldwin enjoys golf, exercise, fishing, traveling, and meeting new people.

I broke the frame on my glasses Walmart refused to fix them because I hadn't purchased them at there store. It went down the street to eye specialist they put my lenses in a new frame inbound 10 minutes and didn't charge me a dime. The frame was actually better that my old one in this day and age when big corporations are Charging high prices for everything. This place charged me nothing that's incredible and with that charitable act they have a customer for life Thank you Eye Care Special

Check-in, pre check plus trainee and Doctor where all professional , they even laughed at my off beat humor which made it a better experience for me. I have only gone to Walmart the past 20 years to get my glasses but I won’t go anywhere else for my future glasses needs.
