Doctor Stone gave me his full attention by pulling up his stool in front of me looking eye-to-eye. Explained and answered questions. I felt heard.

Dr Stone is hands down the best! Drove to every corner of WA trying to find out what was going on with my eye to no avail. Saw Dr Stone as a final straw and he figured it out!

His staff was less than friendly. Dr Stone answered my questions clearly and provided good suggestions for eye health. I would rate him a 5!

My son with down syndrome was the patient. Dr. Stone was very kind and patient with my son and answered all my concerned. He was a very personable man, not just a doctor. I would highly recommend him to anyone with fears or concerns for a loved one.

Amazing doctor. Dr Stone was very thorough and answered all my questions. It was my very first consultation and interaction with Dr Stone and he was a delight. He made me feel very comfortable and I was not afraid to address some of my concerns about cataract surgery. I feel very confident having him as my doctor. Dr Stone comes highly recommended and I certainly agree. I definitely would refer him to anyone who is considering cataract surgery.
