Patient Reviews
Sep 20, 2024
I've been going to Dr. Skelsey for nearly 20 years due to glaucoma. He has performed surgery on my eyes several times for various reasons. He is the BEST. He is very caring and will spend time talking to you and explaining what is going on, and will never rush you. He has saved my eyesight several times and when he thought it best to send me to another specialist, he did not hesitate. He is the kindest doctor I've ever known and I've been around a long time. Dr. Skelsey is very trustworthy, kind, compassionate, and intelligent. You will not go wrong with him as your doctor. He is very knowledgeable of the newest procedures and meds.

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.
