Jul 07, 2021
The staff was very courteous and kind . I had no answers about an eye ailment I was suffering from for months and with one visit to Dr. Lawton the mystery was solved. He is very patient, explaining each test he preforms and takes time to explain your diagnosis. I definitely will recommend him to both family and friends……. Awesome!
