Patient Reviews
Jul 31, 2020
Back in May 2003 when I was 15 years old I was referred to him by the doctor I had at the time because my left eye was very blood shot, bruised, painful; and I was dealing with vomiting and severe headache. He diagnosed me and said that the glands behind my eye was badly swollen. I was out of school for about 2 weeks, seeing him 3 days a week and going for CT scans because he was concerned for me and wanted to keep track of it. I couldn't have asked for a better specialist. He literally saved my eye. When I turned 18 years old I had to be referred to a specialist who works with adults. Believe me, I seriously cried because I didn't want a new specialist. If he was treating adults too you could definitely count on me to go right back to him. He's the best eye specialist and I totally recommend him to each and every person needing a knowledgeable, trustworthy, caring eye specialist who takes time to explain, who really cares about you! As an adult now, I wish I could go to him again.

Board Certifications
What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
