Patient Reviews
Dec 25, 2018
A wonderful doctor, very understanding, knows his profession very well. I had my cataract surgery a few years ago and could see perfectly as soon as I opened my eyes after surgery. A couple of years later, my husband had his done by the doctor who replaced Dr Close. We are not HAPPY at all, my husband's eyes are much, much worse than before the surgery. In fact, he is nearly blind. Do not choose a doctor by the name of PORTER.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
