Had a few referrals for Dr. Friend including my Retinologist. He was “Outstanding”. Personable, responsive and made sure he answered all of my questions. I would highly recommend Dr. Friend for Cataract Surgery and his many other services.

Dr. Friend is incredible. Not only did he take good care of my eyes with the cataract procedures, but he is also easy to speak with at every appointment. It’s rare to find a Doctor that combines such personal touches and care for a patient as a person with outstanding quality of medical care. I would highly
Recommend him. The staff was always helpful, kind and genuinely cared. They ensured I had a smooth prep, surgery and follow up. Marina M.Lee
