Patient Reviews

Jun 19, 2021

Excellent and professional service. The Nurse was efficient and knowledgeable. Dr. Hirshfield was warm and professional. He explained every detail in layman's term. He did not push me to get any procedure or new glasses. The facility and exam room was clean and organized. All staff members were friendly. Wait time is average. Nice for a first visit. Thanks, much appreciated.
