My family and I moved to Virginia several months ago and needed our annual eye exam. Our relocation company gave us several different offices to choose from that were in our insurance network. The list was in alphabetical order, Brandermill was not the first on the list. I looked at each eye clinic very long and hard to make sure to pick the best for my family. Not knowing if I was choosing the right one, I made the call for our appointments. The office was able to get us in rather quickly. Dr. Shen spent whatever time neede... read more

I have been wearing contact lenses for nearly 15 years. In all that time, my visits to the eye doctor were quick- I read the chart on the wall, and I was told I needed a stronger prescription. Then I paid for new lenses and walked out waiting to adjust my vision. Working with Dr. Shen was different though. I was taken aback when she told me that my eyes needed treatment before she was comfortable prescribing new lenses. I thought how could that be, since I was doing the same routine I'd always done? She prescribed eye drops,... read more

I hardly ever went to an eye doctor considering I had good vision and never had a reason to go, but recently my vision became blurry so I assumed that I was getting older and maybe it was time to go to a doctor for routine eye exam.

I made an appointment with Dr. Shen and told her that I had been told I needed eyeglasses previously and that I too felt that I needed them. Rather than writing a prescription right away, she immediately looked for the source of my eye problems. She found that my blurred vision was the result of a medical condition that could be easily tr... read more

I have been seeing Dr. Shen for over 2 years. She is wonderful!!! I went in for an exam and to get new glasses. Dr. Shen did a very detailed exam and realized right away that I do have allergies. The lens prescribed were awesome! She had asked if I ever wore contacts. I indicated that I did, but it was not convenient. She then asked if it was because I still needed to use reading glasses with them in. I was amazed that she knew this! She told me that if I gave her the opportunity, she could find a prescription that would wor... read more
