Excellent Physician he is saving my eye sight!!!!!
Mar-2024
Love my Doctor. He's the Best
Mar-2024
My diagnosis was ultimately unknown, and my mild condition is permanent and cannot be treated. I get it, but it’s also odd that my condition is apparently very unique and unusual…bringing no defined diagnosis. I am happy that my issue is not progressive and not related to any underlying diseases or condition. I’m also happy that my insurance was fully accepted here, and I was able to see this professional / specialist. If I would have had a defined diagnosis, the service would be 5-stars, but again, my condition is apparently unique and ultimately unknown. I always knew I was an alien from outer-space; my third-eye is now open! Overall, I’m grateful and satisfied for everything completed on my 3-18-24 visit, thank you all.
Mar-2024
Highly recommend Dr. Nothnagel. Professional, knowledgeable, very caring!
