Patient Reviews
Jul 11, 2024
I had a cataract lens put in 40 years ago that separated from it's placement that Dr. Ward replaced with a new lens. He did an excellent job and was very easy to work with. He listens well and informs you of the steps and what he is going to do and what I could expect to happen.
