Patient Reviews
Dec 18, 2024
When I was 14, my retina was detached by an ice ball my friend threw at me. Dr. Pelzek came out on a holiday weekend to examine and perform emergency surgery on my eye. I am 31 years old now and still have not needed a follow up for it. In fact, every time I get an eye examination doctors are in awe of the flawless job Dr. Pelzek did - on multiple occasions I've been told it looks straight out of a text book. I thought I'd leave this review to thank him and let him know it's still holding strong.
