Patient Reviews
Nov 07, 2018
I'm so glad to have found Dr. Joan Gewirtz. I came in with a pretty badly swollen and painful eye after receiving improper care elsewhere. She was genuinely concerned about my condition and was very compassionate throughout the whole process. Not to mention, she's an expert in the field and knew exactly how to help me. I was much better in less than 24 hours! She also cares about her patients, has an amazing personality and wonderful office team; I would highly recommend her to anyone.

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.
