WHEN I MET DR DYER I WAS SO GRATEFUL FOR HIS BEDSIDE MANNER AND HE CARED ENOUGH TO EXCUSE HIMSELF AFTER VIEWING MY VISION AND TO REACH OUT TO MY CORNEA SPECIALIST ABOUT HIS CONCERNS I TRULY APPRECIATE IT I FEEL THAT OTHER DOCTORS WOULD HAVE JUST TOLD ME TO CALL THE OTHER DOCTOR TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT INSTEAD OF REACHING OUT. I'VE BEEN THROUGH THE RINGER WITH MY EYESIGHT SINCE 2009 I'VE HAD FOUR CORNEA TRANSPLANTS AND TWO INTERIOR LENS SURGERIES. MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS.

I have seen him since early 2020. He saved my vision with treatments. He explains everything and wants to know about your health to treat the whole patient. When you return he remembers and ask "how's it going?" He is compassionate and dedicated to his patients
