Patient Reviews
Feb 05, 2025
My eyes have had a number of issues for years, and most recently cataract development. Dr. Carter and his team gave me a thorough evaluation during my preoperative visit, and discussed my history, my goals for surgery, and the options that would work best for me. Although they had many options available, they explained everything including pros and cons of each and guided me to the one that would work best for my eyes (which happened to be the one insurance fully covered!) Thanks to the lengthy discussion and follow up, I got exactly the results I wanted. Surgery was smooth and easy. Dr. Carter did an amazing job. I highly recommend him and his team!
