I haven't done any procedure yet but Dr. Michelson seems to be very serious and knowledgeable, spent ample time with me explaining my condition. Overall, I felt good seeing him.

Dr. Michelson recently treated me with PRK laser correction surgery. I have to say, I was very impressed with his professionalism, attention to detail and his friendliness throughout the entire process. He answered all of my questions I had and didn't get annoyed or make me feel rushed. He's very experienced and I am very happy that I chose to have him fix my eyesight. The only negative was the wait time in the clinic, but with the amount of time he spent answering my questions, I know why he was running a little behind; he was giving someone else the premier treatment that I appreciated so much.
