“I loved my first visit to Uptown Eyes!! When I called to schedule, they got me in super quick, and when I arrived, I did not have to wait for a long time either. The care was amazing, and you could really tell that they take time with each patient to help them find the perfect correction for their eyes. And the selection of glasses was amazing!!! All of the ladies helped me make my final decision about some really fun-colored glasses that I can’t wait to rock around town!! Thanks again for an amazing visit!!” – Kat W.

Not Your Average Eye Care Clinic

Dr. Megan Baureis, the owner of Uptown Eyes, generously gave us a few minutes of her time to tell us about this one-of-a-kind business and its award-winning online reputation.

The first thing we wanted to know was what it is that sets Uptown Eyes apart from the many other eye care clinics in Arkansas. Dr. Baureis pointed to the products they offer, which are exclusive and never “stamped out or cookie cutter,” and she told us that they get a lot of referrals because of their products. They have two main doctors at Uptown Eyes, and they’ve been in business for eight years now.

We also wanted to know why they do what they do at Uptown Eyes and how they work to make the world a better place. Dr. Baureis shared with us that they aim to be a very service-driven eye care center with a dedication to their patients and their community and a culture of honesty, teamwork and integrity.

Building Success Through Customer Service

When we asked Dr. Baureis about Uptown Eyes’s secret to such a strong online reputation, she told us about their commitment to customer service and said:

“We work really hard on trying to keep our customers happy; we have a smaller business, so we aren’t rushing people out. We have a meeting two times a year where we do a complete overview of our business, including role-playing and getting everyone on the same page.”

Outside of building the kind of online reputation any business owner would envy, Uptown Eyes has spread the word about who they are and what they do through off-site events and support. Dr. Baureis told us that they sponsor fashion week twice a year, and they have a designers model their eyewear, a photo booth with their glasses and they sponsor local music events.

Clearly, Dr. Baureis knows a thing or two about growing a business and building an online reputation. Here’s her expert advice for the many other business owners out there:

“Have consistency, Learn more and more every year; there are so many avenues that you can market on. No matter where you are, you need to stay consistent to create brand recognition. The first impression people have online has to match the first impression when they come into the office.”


Congratulations to the team at Uptown Eyes for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Dr. Baureis, for taking the time to speak with us!

We highly recommend Uptown Eyes in Fayetteville. Visit their website today!
