Dr Rose has taken amazing care of me prior to and following a corneal transplant. She cares greatly for her patients and wants the best possible outcome for all!!
The good Dr. Was so pleasant to have enter a room. She then began to explain the necessary procedure and then to apply to both of my eyes with complete explanation as to what she was doing and did I have any questions. She offered me further healing care info. with hard copies of each and suggestions on where to find them. She and her office staff are the best. Thank you.
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.
