Dr Fury and her team are outstanding. They accommodated my check up for an eye injury at a short notice and follow up a day later. Wait time was minimal and her team was super welcoming and friendly. She herself is best part of the deal. Very knowledgeable and attentive. Made me feel great as she explained my eye injury and its treatment. She did all tests and evaluations in a very professional and friendly manner,

This was my first visit with Dr. Furey and I had a very thorough Exam and am satisfied with my visit. The staff and all technicians were thorough and friendly and introduced themselves. I spent about 2 hrs in there office, but never waited very long in waiting area, only while drops took effect and to have a scan and additional tests with Dr.Furey.

As former patient of Dr.Ditkoff, this was first visit with Dr. Furey and as a new patient for her she was very thorough in addressing the conditions Dr. Ditkoff had been monitoring and treating for several years. She made me feel comfortable and I felt very confident with her review of my history and continuing treatment plan.
