Patient Reviews
Jun 30, 2021
I already have recommended Dr. John Snead to several neighbors. He was very efficient and knowledgeable as to the steps to follow in not only my regular eye exam, but in his extra in-depth testing to discover the reason for my very debilitating pain. He even sent me for blood tests and will notify my general physician. I have never had an ophthalmologist go the extra miles for me. It’s obvious that Dr. John Snead really cares about his patients, is extremely knowledgeable in not just eyes, but other specialties as well, and loves his helping others have a healthier and happier life.
