I arrived on time, was greeted immediately, and checked in quickly. There was virtually no wait time until I was in the room for testing. The assistants were friendly and efficient. The wait for Dr. Emig was brief. As always he was wonderful. He always answers my questions and spends the time I need to explain what I’m experiencing. As I was checking out the receptionist even remembered my name. What a great visit!

I had a tough time at a recent appointment. I require extra numbing and extra time for it to take effect. Apparently he was in a hurry because the injections were terribly painful and the evening was miserable. The next day was better, but the sandpaper feeling was more noticeable than usual. I’m praying for a better experience next month!

I HAVE BEEN SENT TO DR.EMIG FROM 2 OTHER DOCTORS. STATING HE IS THE BEST MAN TO TAKE CARE OF YOU. AFTER SEEING DR. EMIG FOR 3+ YEARS I WHOLE HEARTEDLY AGREE, HE ALWAYS TAKES TIME TO EXPLAIN WHATS GOING ON AND HOW THE DESEASE PROCESS IS PROGRESSING. HE IS SO KIND AS HE DOES THIS WITH COMPASSION AND KINDNESS.. I WON'T BE CHANGING DRS. HE' MY GUY. YESTERDAY HE GAVE ME A SHOT IN THE EYEBALL. AND GUESS WHAT? I DIDN'T EVEN FEEL IT. I ONLY GAVE HIM A 4 RATING BECAUSE, AND I'M SURE HE WOULD AGREE THERE IS ALWAYS ROOM TO IMPROVE. HIS STAFF IS KIND AND PROFESSIONAL EAGER TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THEY CAN. I WOULD SUGGEST DR.
