Patient Reviews
Jan 06, 2025
Dr. Neil Shmunes is a most caring and friendly doctor who gave us his personal phone number to me and stated unequivocally no matter what time of day or night to call him if we ever have any problems with the eye. We never had a doctor who would do that. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs an ophthalmologist.
