Patient Reviews
May 19, 2023
Dr. Balyeat is friendly but somewhat quiet. His staff is helpful. I don't want to gamble with my vision and I am confident I am receiving excellent eye care. Like many I have macular degeneration and Dr. Balyeat took time to explain the condition and the options. In talking with those in the waiting room with longer experience than mine, their comments were very favorable.
