Patient Reviews
May 11, 2022
I've been under the care of retinal specialists for 5 years. Not until I relocated to MA and was seen by Dr. Baumal did I meet a decisive professional who listened to my vision difficulties then assess and move to surgery. For the first time in years, I can play the piano, drive at night and feel competent to travel. She's the best. Don't hesitate to become her patient or to recommend to family or friends.
