Patient Reviews
Aug 06, 2022
Dr. Raecker is the best eye doctor in my opinion. He is very knowledgeable, cares about his patients, and takes the time needed to explain to you your situation. He has preformed cataract surgery on both my eyes and now and no longer need glasses to drive only for computer and reading. after having glasses for 65 years. its amazing.
