I found Dr. Weiter to be extremely thorough. He was very kind and spent a lot of time with me working on the problem I was having. He reassured me and I feel he is the right doctor for my issue. I cannot say enough good about my visit. The staff was excellent as well. It was a great experience.

One has to be aware that due to the nature of the issues here, you may have to be seen several times which definitely adds to the wait time. Eyes my need to be dilated, the doctor needs to see you, treatment may be necessary, & then a recheck needs to be done before you can leave. It makes for a LONG visit many times.
