Patient Reviews
Sep 24, 2021
Excellent !! When you visit your eyes will get the full spectrum of examinations including the Dye. All take time. He saved my troubled eye. You only have two eyes and the wait is worth it for a comprehensive exam. You have to be good to be an eye surgeon because you are operating in such a small space.
