Dr. Allison Tendler and the staff at Art Vision are THE BEST. Their approach to patient care is refreshing. They listen to me at every appointment. They discuss treatment options and are sincere in their concern for my eye health. Their facility is amazing. Everyone single member of the staff has taken the time to get to know me and greets me by name when I walk in. Dr. Tendler is an expert and has walked me through every step of the way. From someone who was scared to death of having anything done with my eyes to being given the gift of sight - Art Vision is a world class organization and we are lucky to have them here in Sioux Falls.

I was very happy and well-pleased with the excellent job Dr. Tendler did on repairing my drooping eyelids. She is very caring and concerned about her patients. I enjoyed meeting her and am very happy with the work she did for me. Being able to see with wide open eyes, and no eyelashes blocking my vision is great. I didn't realize what a difference the surgery would make. More

Amazing Care! - Dr. Tendler was kind and considerate. She even called my home number after surgery to see how I was doing. I don't think anyone could find a more caring doctor or facility. More

Dr. Alison Tendler gave me the gift of sight back! Without her help I would be completely blind today. For many years my sight was deteriorating. I had tried new eyeglasses with different prescriptions but noting seemed to help with my vision issues. My optometrist Dr. Alan Jones referred me to Dr. Tendler. January of 2010 Dr. Tendler did a cornea cell transplant on my left eye. I was 55 at the time. I was scared what if it didn't work and I was blind in my left eye. Several days later I was at my business sitting in my office when I looked up and realized that I was able to see and read a sign that was across the road over 400 feet away. Dr. Tendler recommended that I do the surgery on my other eye and I agreed with her. Today my vision in both eyes is 20/20. Thank you Dr. Alison Tendler you gave me my eyesight back. I am forever grateful. I highly recommend Dr. Alison Tendler! More

8 months later I am thrilled by my refractive cataract surgery. I had both eyes done and within days of my surgeries being completed, I was amazed by how clearly I could see. By adding the refractive lenses, I am now able to read without the aid of glasses. As an avid golfer, I initially went in since I could not see the golf ball at a distance as it traveled and landed. I not only have my distance vision back, but my near vision as well. It has been an amazing opportunity to be able to see this well again. More

I could not be happier with the results and the service provided by Dr Tendler and her entire staff. After having worn glasses or contacts for 40+ years, I am able to see clearly without correction after having RLE surgery in May. Dr Tendler, not a representative, has been at every appointment from the initial assessment to the follow up appointments. Her explanation of the procedure and feedback following the procedure was very helpful and appreciated. I would recommend ART Vision to anyone considering a similar procedure! More

What a professional, caring group of employees. Having had this procedure done before by someone else I was so impressed how they took the time to explain things and the procedures being done and all the information they provided. I was told Dr Tendler is the best of the best and I know that’s now true but also her employees are too. You definitely are the best of the best. ❤️ More

I was very pleased at ART Vision. My appointment was made in a timely manner. I wanted appointment to see the Dr and also have my floaters taken care of while I was in Sioux Falls, as I had a 2 1/2 hour drive to get there, and they were able to get me in the next day for my procedure. I was very happy that they could get everything done that needed done while I was there. Very nice people working there. This was the first time I had met the Dr Tendler and she was very pleasant and knowledgeable. My sight has definitely improved since I had the large floaters in both eyes Lazer zapped and removed. I would definitely advise anyone to go there. They do several different procedures there. Give them a call! More

Great experience! The whole team at ArtVision was very knowledgeable and informative and took time to carefully explain every step of my procedure. Everyone from the girls working the front desk to Dr. Tendler are overly accommodating and kind. Because of the amazing care they gave I not once felt nervous, concerned or worried about having my bilateral refractive lens exchange with IOL implants. The procedure itself was so simple and quick - it has changed my life! I never dreamed that I could have 20/20 (and better in left eye!) vision again. Wearing readers and prescription glasses was such a bother in my life. Now that I don’t have to wear them anymore I realize what a detriment it was to my lifestyle to have to constantly worry about seeing, driving or have my husband and friends read menus, contracts, etc. for me. I certainly don’t feel 59 years old or live any aspect of my life at that age - and now that my vision is that of what it was when I was 30 I can truly live my best life!! ** I’m now designated the “reader” of all the small print for my husband and friends! 🤣 More

You listen when somebody wants to talk and tell you their troubles almost like your hairdresser does and Dr. TENDLER might be tiny but she gives the best hugs thank you for putting up with me. More

Overall a good experience. I arrived 5 minutes early but ended up waiting almost 25 minutes past my appointment time before being seen. I was seen by first a mid level and then Dr. Tendler and her nurse/scribe. All were very kind, but Dr. Tendler was exceptional. She was very friendly and thorough... I expected her to only look at the problem I came in for but she did a complete exam and found a concern that I had not been told about by the provider who referred me to Art Vision. I look forward to having my procedure done in a few weeks knowing that I am in the hands of thorough and kind provider. UPDATE : Talk about great customer service! I just received a call from the office apologizing for the wait time. This is how things are done! Kiddos to the team! More

Dr. Tendler and her staff were absolutely wonderful before, during, after my procedure. I tell everyone that I know how great my experience was. Nine months later and I am still amazed with the difference that this procedure has had in my life. To say that it was life changing is not an exaggeration. A.N. More

I’m never concerned when I walk in to the offices of ARTVision. From the moment I enter, I’m treated with respect and care. All of the staff are amazing and very helpful. From the moment you walk through the ARTVision doors, you can see and almost “feel” that the staff not only care for the patients, but they also care for each other. It’s very telling in a good way. Dr. Tender is the best! I know I’m in good hands with her. I trust her completely. You can tell that she genuinely cares about her patients. She is thorough and makes sure you understand the process of your treatment which puts me at ease. I’m very grateful to be in her care. I have recommend her to my friends and family. For anyone wondering if they should see her for their eye care, don’t hesitate! ARTVision and Dr. Tendler are the best! More

Friendly, professional, and efficient from the moment they answer the phone to make your first appointment. I recently had LASIK surgery performed by Dr. Tendler. She went above and beyond to make sure my prescription was dialed in perfectly and that I was comfortable throughout the entire experience. My wife had the same positive experience when she had LASIK surgery from ART Vision last year. Dr. Tendler and her staff were a joy to work with and I can confidently recommend their services to anyone. It is a first-class experience from start to finish! More

Dr. Tendler performed my eyelid surgery and I was so pleased! I can see!! After years of literally holding my eyes up in the afternoon, I scheduled a consult with her to correct the wrath of gravity on my heavy eyelids. The procedure was quick and easy and recovery was really simple...lots of icepacks and some rest. The result? I'm not constantly massaging my tired eyes, and pushing up my eyebrows to see a little bit better is a thing of the past. I am so grateful for Dr. Tendler's remarkable bedside manner, she is an incredible physician, explaining everything along the way from dotting my eyelids to the countdown to some sleepy time. She checked in post procedure to double check that I was healing well and any questions were answered promptly. Dr. Tendler is a favorite of our family, having corrected my Mom's cataracts as well. I know that when my time comes for that correction (and It's coming....) ARTVision and Dr. Tendler is the only place I will go! More

I had previously been to Artisan for Botox in my masseter muscle due to pain (recommended by my neurologist) it made a world of difference. So I continue to get that done as well. At one of my Botox appointments I mentioned my dry eye situation. I had tried ductal plugs, numerous eye drops, cleanser for eyes, Xidra (prescription eye drops), Fish Oil supplements and no better. So I saw Dr. Tendler who recommended PRP eye drops. What a game changer! I felt immediate relief like I’ve never felt. I even put in my contacts for a whole day! For those who don’t know what PRP is. It was a blood draw and they took the plasma and made eye drops from it. They have to be refrigerated/froze and they’re a bit spendy , as insurance doesn’t cover it but they were well worth it. I’m very impressed and excited. So thankful to Dr. Tendler and Staff. They’re the best! More

I am so pleased with the customer service at ARTVision. Everyone is so nice and understanding. Dr. Tendler and her team put together a plan to take care of issues I had had for almost 2 yrs. The eyelid surgery they performed was very successful and it has helped my issues tremendously. They continue to progress with the plan they came up with and I couldn't be happier.

I had my lenses removed because of cataracts. I chose the expensive, not covered by insurance, corrective replacement lenses. It has been nearly a year. I started having some “fuzziness” in my left eye. This is very common, though may happen quickly for some, and never for others. I went in this week. Dr. Tendler did less than a minute of laser “tweaking” and back to near perfect. I wish I would have consulted years ago! More

Dr. Allison Tendler and the staff at Art Vision are THE BEST. Their approach to patient care is refreshing. They listen to me at every appointment. They discuss treatment options and are sincere in their concern for my eye health. Their facility is amazing. Everyone single member of the staff has taken the time to get to know me and greets me by name when I walk in. Dr. Tendler is an expert and has walked me through every step of the way. From someone who was scared to death of having anything done with my eyes to being given the gift of sight - Art Vision is a world class organization and we are lucky to have them here in Sioux Falls.

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Tendler and Artisian Skin & Laser! I live in Chicago but decided to fly down to Sioux Falls for an afternoon of self care and it was so worth it. I've been to many different aesthetic spas for facials & had gotten a little filler in the past but none of them compared to the excellent experience I had at Artisian. Dr. Tendler and her staff really took the time to evaluate my skin type, what I was looking for & my areas of concern. They also use advanced technology to take pictures that analyze your skin and problem areas. It was pretty incredible to see the before/after pictures too! I had the Silk Peel Facial and am loving the results! One of the best things about this particular facial is that it exfoliates your skin while getting all the junk out but you don't peel or have any redness after and there's no downtime needed. I also had Dr. Tendler do a little filler to help fill out my cheek area and temples. She did the best job of anyone I've gone to and I will never go anywhere else for any type of cosmetic injectable! I've been to places before where they tend to be overly aggressive with what they want to do and I've ended up feeling pressured into doing more than what I wanted/needed. Dr. Tendler understood my conservative nature and I was very comfortable with what she recommended and what we decided to do. I LOVE the results!! Another huge bonus is the fact that she is a board certified ophthalmologist and I felt very safe with her injecting me. The spa/clinic is beautiful and the staff was very friendly and made me feel comfortable and at ease the entire time. I highly recommend Dr. Tendler & the entire staff at Artisian Skin & Laser! More
