Really great service. The doctor was very smart, self informed and gave Mom free samples.
First time patient, my appointment was at 3:05 and I didn’t get called back until 3:45 or so. Other than the waiting time being long, it was still worth it and a good experience. They were very thorough in taking my information and getting my history. The visit with the Dr didn’t take long at all and I’m excited if the plugs will work. I’ve suffered for over 25 years with dry eye disease and the last ten years have been the worst since being in AZ. I hope it helps.
