Patient Reviews
Nov 01, 2024
Had Lasik several years ago. It was a great experience. Very detailed and in depth eye exam. Then Dr Akler explained the procedure and answered all my questions. No pressure from her or the staff, just facts and answers to my questions. Surgery went flawlessly. Have continued going there for checkups and routine exams even though it's a 50 mile round trip. The staff and Dr Akler are knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. No need to go anywhere else.
