I have recommended several people to
Dr.Friend through the years. My retinal doctor recommended him for my cataract surgery which made all the difference in my life. He is patient, caring and a wonderful doctor. He explains everything so that I have no questions when I leave his office. The staff that work with Dr Friend are also a pleasure.They are friendly and helpful when you have a problem and need to be seen .

Dr. Friend truly lives up to his name! He and his staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and organized. Surgery went smoothly with no complications. Felt cared for as a person—not just a number like at a "popular" eye center in the area where you are treated like you are in a factory line

Dr. Friend is one of the best doctors that I've had in a long time. He's very personable, informative, tells you every step of the way what's going on. I brought a friend in with me and she's already sold on him and will start seeing him too.
