I came in as an emergency due to sudden floaters, and the care I received from Dr. Cindy Calderon was exceptional from start to finish. She quickly diagnosed hemorrhaging behind my eye along with a horseshoe-shaped tear and took immediate action.
She explained everything clearly, made me feel at ease, and performed laser treatment the same day to prevent further damage. I truly appreciated her urgency, professionalism, and compassion.
I left feeling relieved and confident that I was in the best hands. Highly recommend Dr. Cindy Calderon for anyone needing prompt and expert eye care.
