Dr Rose and her team explained everything to me and answered all my questions. My my eye surgery was not a typical surgery I had an old cataract it took a lot of work and Dr Rose and her team worked like a well-oiled machine I am so glad that I went to the four corners eye clinic.

I searched for an eye doctor to treat my dry eye syndrome. Thankfully, I found Dr. Rose, who is a specialist in treating this condition. She is truly an excellent doctor whom I highly recommend.

Very rushed visit. She spent most of the time typing or checking her watch rather than making eye contact. It felt transactional instead of personal. But this is how I always feel afterwards. So it’s not surprising tbh.
