Patient Reviews
Jan 20, 2022
Dr. Tweeten has been my eye doctor for almost 30 years. He has treated holes in my retinas, performed PRK refractive surgery, treated occipital migraines, and performed annual vision appointments and corrections. He is always professional, polite, and efficient. He can’t retire.
