Patient Reviews
Mar 28, 2023
It was the most thorough exam I ever had. He informed me of his findings and course of tx and thoroughly addressed all my concerns. He also explained some things I hadn’t even asked about …which gave me a better understanding of my eye problems I would highly recommend him. Helen Fickley Penn Hills, Pa. 3 /28 / 23
