Patient Reviews
Oct 14, 2021
Dr. Smith was very helpful. I have been having issues with my eyes for years. Many other doctors have told me that there is nothing wrong with my eyes. Dr. Smith's staff was very kind and listened to my concerns. When it came time for me to see the doctor I was already feeling wonderful about my eyes and the care I was receiving. After Dr. Smith examined my eyes, he sat with me and explained my condition until I was satisfied that I understood my condition. The time and care he takes with each patient explained the slightly longer wait. However, it was well worth it. I have waited much longer for worse doctors. By the time I was leaving the facility I was extremely grateful to each and everyone who works in this amazing practice. They make you feel as though you matter and they put your care before all else. I highly recommend Dr. Smith and Staff to you.
