Jul 26, 2023
I had cataract surgery. Dr Franklin is awesome! He makes you feel at ease. Explains everything well. He even called to see how I was doing the evening of my surgery! I trust him completely. He doesn’t make you feel (stupid) for asking any questions or make you feel like it’s not important.
