Dr. A is amazing. He's friendly, generous with his time and very knowledgeable. I have an autoimmune disease and need more intensive eye care and for many years now he's provided me with great exams and tracted every and anything related to my illness. He always comes in prepared and familiar with my prior chart history and never hesitates to talk to me at length about any of my concerns.
