Patient Reviews
Oct 30, 2023
Went to Dr. Hayhurst for a second opinion. He immediately recognized that my eyes were allergic to the eye drops another eye doctor had prescribed, and changed my prescription. My eyes are responding well; no mention of eye surgery that the other doctor recommended.

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.
