As always, a great experience. Friendly and efficient work by the medical assistants and comprehensive exam by Dr. Butler. If only someone could come up with an alternative to dilating the eyes!

Dr. Butler was great, she was very through and explained every step she took. My only complaint like others have said is the wait time. However, I will use Dr. Butler in the future.

Dr. Butler is exceptional. She took her time during my appointment, clearly explained what she was doing and seeing, and answered all my questions and made me feel so comfortable.
