Dec 10, 2024
I took my mother to see Dr. Abernethy and was impressed by all aspects of the care she received. The thoroughness of the exam, Dr. Abernethy's compassion, conscientiousness to find the cause of my mother's visual issues, and explanation of the test results and options for care were extraordinary.

Board Certifications
What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
