Jul 27, 2022
I was dealing with acute vision loss and was concerned about getting an appointment soon. She saw me the same day and answered all of my questions. Her staff was efficient and very friendly. She provided the appropriate diagnostics, was honest and gave me an appropriate referral.

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.
