I really like Doc Kyle. He is knowledgeable and knows what to tell you, but he takes the time to talk to me and explains things where you know what is going on. Thank you so very much
Dr Piwonka and his staff at Four Corners Eye Clinic were fantastic. I live out of state and needed to see an ophthalmologist because I was experiencing an issue with my right eye. From the first time I called, the staff was accommodating and I was able to see Dr Piwonka that day. Matthew, the vision technician was professional and friendly. He was thorough and efficient. Dr Piwonka was courteous and listened to my concerns. He was extremely thorough in his examination and addresses my eye condition by explaining what was happening to my eye. I felt blessed to have found a great facility. If I did not live out of state I would definitely go back to Four Corners Eye Clinic.
