Jul 02, 2024
Amazing, thorough, service. The office space is beautiful, staff and doctors so warm, welcoming and professional. The quality of tests administered to get an accurate assessment made me feel great and assured. The doctor was extremely thorough and provided a great regime to handle my chronic eye issue. They made sure to answer all of my questions, and are extremely informative. Outstanding communication with Rita, the office manager. Glad I'm here for 10+ years!
