Patient Reviews
Jun 20, 2023
When I first met Dr. Benedict, I was going thru chemo and just wanted to go home. However, his gentle nature and real compassion took only one visit to win me over. He has taken care of my eyes for 10 years, staving off the effects of diabetes, including glaucoma, heart disease, neuropathy, and cataracts. He removed my brother’s cataracts and my brother , every day says “the doctor is a genius and super skilled as a surgeon and a human being”. It’s so unfortunate that he is retiring, unfortunate for patients. A new doctor will be at my next appointment. I wish Dr. Benedict joy and the Lord’s. Countenance always always.on him. Have a fantastic retirement Dr. Benedict.
