My son is the patient. He has Down syndrome and requires patience. We are always treated with kindness and respect. My questions are answered regarding his care now as well as in the future. I appreciate the level care and we respect both shown. Before we came here for my son's treatment we were in another medical office. The staff refereed to the doctors here as the "cornea whispers." This is a true reputation.

I'm extremely happy with the quality of the care I received at every level. The entire staff was courteous, and I really could not expect a better experience from that perspective. However, the wait was absolutely unacceptable. It exceeded an hour, maybe even an hour and a half, before I see my provider. Now, the clinic was overrun. It was very obvious, so I'm not suggesting anyone was drinking tea in the back room. But obviously, the clinic was overrun and that created significant upgrades, which I would hope will get better. Thank you.

It is always the best. The only problem is that some patients require more time and that causes a delay in seeing your doctor on the allotted time.

I trust this care provider, completely! He is knowledgeable, shares pro/con information clearly and listens, then answers my question. Additionally, when he works with someone or someone else provides data, he listens & asks questions when necessary. He is a remarkable doctor in many ways! And, he has a sense of humor which is greatly appreciated!
