Patient Reviews
May 16, 2021
Dr Planchard is the most knowledgeable ophthalmologist I’ve ever met. He explains this eloquently and beautifully. His credentials are impeccable: Duke, Tulane, UT SA, LSU, Price Eye Institute. His father and his brother are also ophthalmologists, meaning micro surgeons. His mother was a professional portrait artist. The man can operate. He gives out his cell number to patients. The other reviews on here are few and probably written by competitors. Believe it or not, eye doctors are very cutthroat with one another.
