Patient Reviews
Nov 08, 2024
Dr Young began following me after the surgeon who removed an epi retinal membrane moved away. I was quickly able to trust that she was fully updated on my history and able to continue the excellent care I had been receiving. She has continued my care for mild diabetic retinopathy and recently some swelling behind the retina.. Not only is she excellent at keeping track of the progress of these conditions, I always feel that she understands and takes into account my fear of losing my vision. She is reassuring yet vigilant! It is well worth the 2 hr drive from north western Mass to see her.
