Would have liked a word with the doctor after surgery, but I understand he was busy.

I came in for my yearly retina exam and did some of the routine testing, after which they dilated my eyes and I waited for Dr Osborn. I've done this before and knew what to expect but when he came in, he looked at my scans and that was it. He didn't examine me at all and I asked why twice but he didn't answer that question, only said he is referring me to a retina specialist. I asked him why my eyes were dilated and he said it was for testing but he never examined me himself. Just sent me to checkout. Dilating my eyes causes me an all day headache and I shouldn't have had it done if the doctor wasn't even going to bother looking in them.

I have been seeing Dr. Osborn for 24 years doing my diabetic eye exams. He is always thorough in the exams and answers all questions I have.

Very professional, but warm at the same time. He explained everything to both my son and me. He also gave me a list of options so I can make a good decision. Thank you, Dr Osborn.
