Patient Reviews
Mar 18, 2018
I was referred to Dr. Brian Jerkins for acute angle-closure glaucoma following numerous surgeries related to a detached retina. Dr. Jerkins assessed my condition and quickly got me into emergency surgery. He handled my “complicated” case with competence and caring. He has been transparent in relaying the reality of my situation and outcome goals. As a healthcare professional myself, I trust Dr. Jerkins and plan to refer my patients to him in the future.
