We were seen with less than 5 hours notice for a referral regarding sudden vision loss. Dr. McMahon and his staff were very personable, knowledgeable and comforting in this difficult time. His timely attention to our needs and attention to detail was stellar. We are continuing to follow up with this doctor and value his care greatly.

I saw him twice after he moved to Specialty Eye Care's Lowry office in Aurora (2013?). Both times he was running about 3 hours late. I don't care how good he is, I won't wait that long for any doctor unless he's out on an emergency of some kind (and he was not).

I used to go to this Dr. many years ago. He was very excellent in treating my eyes. I have been diagnosed with macalor and have been going to another eye Doctor, but I am still having some problems and would like a second opinion. I am 83 years young.

He was at the other practice and he was excellent there and I was told he retired. Yahoo he didn't retire and I'm very glad he opened a new office here in Colorado Springs. He is professional and trustworthy, I have confidence in him as my eye doctor... I highly recommend him to everyone!

Dr. McMahon is an excellent doctor and I would wait all day to get in to see him if I had to and would and have traveled far to see him. I have the utmost respect and trust in him.

Dr. McMahon did eye surgery on my mother that gave her back some peripheral and shadow vision when every other doctor in two states had told her there was absolutely no hope. He made her final years much more comfortable with that gift. I have also consulted Dr. McMahon for cataracts and glaucoma for nearly 20 years. There is absolutely no one better in the field.

I found Dr McMahon to be a caring and competent Opthalmologist. He has always been pleasant, provided adequate time, and I couldn't ask for more.

I have been going to Dr. McMahon for almost 20 years and his expertise has made all the difference in my vision. This man has saved my eyes where no other physician was able to come up with a game plan. If was not for his expertise, I would be blind now. What more can I say...
