The staff was persistent on getting my scans which were difficult due to my transplant corneas’ irregularities. Dr Sheehan gave me my sight back. I will always be indebted to him . He is skilled, knowledgeable, kind and reassuring. Amazing ophthalmologist !!

He is always - no exceptions - personable, unrushed, thorough, highly skilled, speaks with uncomplicated clarity. Couldn't be happier trusting him with my sight.

Dr. Sheehan is very friendly and approachable. I wanted to say hello to a fellow doctor who had been a friend of my daughter. They played together as young children. She is also a doctor, a pediatric cardiologist practicing in Chicago. It was wonderful that Dr. Sheehan had Dr. McInness step into my exam room to say hello. It made my day!! Dr. Sheehan’s thoughtful gesture was greatly appreciated.
