Patient Reviews
Jun 13, 2016
I have a condition that caused recurring holes and tears in the retinas in both eyes over the last 4 years. Dr. Espinosa did an excellent job of repairing them. New holes can happen at anytime and many occur in hard to reach areas of the eye and he has done whatever possible to repair and keep them from getting worse. I owe a huge thank you to Dr. Espinosa and all the doctors and staff there who do an excellent job of making me feel confident that I'm getting the best care. Highly recommend!!
