Could not have found a better eye Dr. Excellent in every way. When I'm done and need an eye Dr again I will definitely see him and all his staff again. Very respectful and takes very good care of me. I would give him a 25 rating if that were possible and his staff. Thank you so much. I'm 80 and I feel he's saving my sight.
