Patient Reviews
Oct 22, 2024
He has cared for eyes just as everything started to change for me after wearing glasses for a couple of decades. Aging while enjoying outdoor sports is hard in the peepers ! Dr Boatwright removed my cataracts & thereafter we found macular pucker which had nothing to do with my lips. It’s a retinal issue. After his colleague Dr King attacked the pucker we needed Dr. Boatwright to again apply the laser to a straggling residue. Bingo & gonzo ! Dr. Boatwright is my go-to ! Roger Elliott
