He and his staff go beyond their way to help you, take their time to answer all your questions, make sure you understand their answers, no matter how long it takes... I am from another city in Texas, and I am glad I find him and his staff in Austin..

He is an excellent doctor, I am surprised that the rating is slightly less than 5. He should be rated at 5 in my opinion.

He removed my first cataract last week and there was no pain at all. My vision is clear in that eye. He discussed the operation and my wishes for the outcome thoroughly with me and considered my opinions, too. Now for the next one!
