Would never go back to this dr. He made me feel so low and horrible when I left the office! Needs to learn to speak to patients!

I'm only getting around to writing a comment because I was looking him up to refer to a friend who has encountered retina issues. Dr. Murphy is an incredible eye doctor. He is very thorough and I feel very fortunate to know that should I encounter eye issues again, he is there.

Dr. Murphy was my late Father's doctor for many years. My Dad had Retinitis Pigmentosa and now it appears that 3 of his 5 kids and 2 grandsons have it too... Dr. Murphy also fixed my Mom's detached retina... Very professional!

Dr. Murphy is a wonderful doctor. He is personable and knowledgeable and always takes time to explain what he finds when examining my eyes. I have every confidence in him. His staff is helpful and I am never waiting more that 10 Minutes for my appointment. I was quite concerned about the detached retina in my left eye and thought I would be blind. But Dr. Murphy referred me to Dr. Kim for surgery and I am on the mend. I have been treated well by Dr. Murphy and all Kresge Eye doctors.
