Patient Reviews
Apr 03, 2024
Dr. Tom Ward and his staff made me feel as if I was his only patient. Staff was professional, knowledgeable, and informative. Dr. Ward took time to explain in detail what would be happening at my first visit for injections in both eyes for Wet MD. He was compassionate, listened to my concerns, and thoroughly answered all my questions. It was a pleasure to meet and be treated by his team. I highly recommend Dr. Ward to treat any and all retina issues.
