Patient Reviews
Jan 15, 2024
Dr. Hammer seemed happy to answer my questions about cataract surgery and other eye conditions--thorougly, with a smile. My retina specialist referred me to him. I also liked the staff at the Palisades Surgical Eye Center where Dr. Hammer does procedures. That place was extremely busy but the staff were very kind and helpful.
