Sent by my GP 3 years ago as had suspected Diabetes, and he recommended Dr. Smith as best. All staff and techs were very professional, at pains to put me at ease and explain reason for each test. Dr. had all results a photos for my exam. Rechecked some areas, good diagnostition, great relaxing manner and took time to explain/discuss all facts and my questions. No less than Excellent

Had previously been charged for prescription when visiting another physician so that was not a problem. Dr. Smith is a wonderful doctor who is totally aware and knowledgeable of state of the art ophthalmology. Will continue my care with her.

I have never ever been charged $60 for the doctor to write a prescription before in my entire life, not from other ophthamologists or any other physician. If Dr. Smith had advised me that there would be a $60 charge, I would have not had her write a prescription that she even said I might not need.
