Dr. Emig and his staff are top notch! I have tried 2 different clinics and found Midwest Eye Care to be the most caring and professional. Dr. Emig has an incredible bedside manner and gives eye injections with such finesse letting me stay calm instead of anxious prior to the injections. I am very grateful for his kindness and expertise!
Awesome doctor!!
Dr. Emig has been saving my sight for almost 25 years. I am so grateful! He is super kind and encouraging and I would dread being without him and his care team.
Patient, thorough, positive, and kindhearted.
Awesome care received
Very kind and thoughtful
He explained everything so I could understand it.
I have a lot of respect for him as a physician but I waited a long time in the lobby and in the exam room. They weren't busy. I think I was his first patient of the day.
Another great visit. Dr Emig and staff were great.
Wonderful Dr. caring an gentle
