I am a patient of Dr. Mark Ihnan and recommend him. He took care of my eye when I had shingles, showed great concern and followed up. Due to his care, there was no damage to my eye. He did cataract surgery on both my eyes. It went smoothly, he called me after each surgery and there was good follow up. I am amazed at the improvement in my sight! One thing about this M.D. is that he really does love his work!

I wrote under the wrong doctor at first. Sorry. This doctor is great. He called me later on in the evening to see how iI was doing after surgery. He did a fantastic job on my eye. I am having the right eye done Monday. I would highly recommend this doctor. He is so good at what he does. Complete Confidence in him.

I was seen by Dr. Ihnen and felt that my examination was very thorough. He took the time to explain the issues that I was experiencing with my vision and ordered the appropriate follow-up Rx.

Dr. Ihnen was fantastic. He answered all of my questions and did a superb job. I had cataract surgery with corrective lenses. I have had a number of surgeries in my lifetime and these surgeries were the easiest I have ever gone through. He is very professionable and personable. I would highly recommend him!

This Dr has a terrible bedside manner and was very disrespectful to my eldery parent. He did not want to diagnose the issue at hand, a simple infection... he was only worried about scheduling my parent for double cataract surgery. He gave an eye exam in the dark and would not even listen that my parent could read the ENTIRE eye chart in appropriate light. He dismissed my parent as well as me and my concerns. Awful experience.

Do not see this doctor. Not only will he hurt you, he will make your eye condition worse than it is. He isn't conservative at all. I will never ever recommend him to anyone nor will I ever see this man again. Even if he is the only doctor available.
