Doctor has been taking care of me for a couple years now and my sight has improved. He saved my eyes!! Whenever I had an emergency I didn’t have to wait long and I was glad I got an appointment right away as early as that same day! I got an injection and the staff was great I didn’t feel any pain at all. Thankyou Doctor! My favorite doctor! I don’t trust anyone but him.
