Outside of work, Dr. Dawson enjoys spending time with her family and friends. She also enjoys being outdoors, cycling, baking, and DIY projects.
Knowledgeable and pleasant, which puts a patient at ease, knowing she has the situation under control. Feel privileged having her care for both me and my wife.
Dr. Dawson will be performing surgery on my eye in a couple of weeks and I really appreciated the way she explained everything. She broke down the issues concerning my eyes and how the surgery will impact my sight. She was extremely informative about everything she was going to do. She didn't know that she calmed my slight anxiety about the whole eye experience. Dr. Dawson is a true professional! She knows her stuff!
Very knowledgeable, very professional, very personable
Dr Lawson is knowledgeable, patient, and very willing to answer patient questions. She provides multiple options for treatment, and lets the patient decide which feels best for them. There is no pressure or upselling.
Dr. Dawson is practicing medicine the way it was intended to. Not as a technician who relies exclusively on the results of the tests. She sees her patients as human beings who come to her with their worries, anxieties as well as a ocular pathology to be addressed. She restored my faith in the profession. Kudos to you Doc!
Dr. Dawson is an excellent physician. I have great confidence in her.
Professional, warm, knowledgeable. My first visit with Dr. Dawson -- a pleasure.
Professional, Very knowledgeable and compassionate.
It is always a joy when visiting Dr Dawson. She is very easy to talk to and patience.
I feel completely at ease with Dr Dawson taking care of my eyesight. She is extremely professional yet has an exceptional bedside manner. She is the reason I return to Washington Eye.
