Patient Reviews
Jul 14, 2017
I have been Dr. Porter's patient for so long and I do receive very high attention when ever I visit him at his clinic at Sweetwater Blvd, Sugarland. I hold him in high regard as a decent Ophthalmologist. I am referring a friend to him in the next 3 days. He successfully carried out surgery operations on both my eyes and since then have had no issue seeing with or without my glasses. Cornelius A. Agwunobi
