Patient Reviews
Mar 24, 2017
She is wonderful! She sees so many patients in her office that I understand that she has to be quick but she always takes time to clearly answer any weird eye questions I have. She's very nice and has the most important skill a doctor needs, she's a good detective that pieced together symptoms I mentioned with things in my chart that I would never have thought of and she figured out what was wrong with my eyes. I can't recommend her enough, or any of the other doctors in her Fairfield office
