Dr. Urban has been treating my mother for Glaucoma for the past year and has been a life saver, literally saved her vision. He is the most knowledgeable physician in this field and more importantly, the most caring doctor we've encountered. His staff is equally outstanding, and extremely responsive in every aspect possible. We are SO thankful to have found Dr. Urban, who I have also seen, and could not be in better hands. Thank you to Dr. Urban and to his magnificent staff!
