Efficient & Great Service
Dr. Ranun is excellent! He is friendly, gives a thorough exam, and is to the point. I appreciated the quick, yet comprehensive, appointment.
I have been seeing Michael for several years now. Each visit is the same. He is polite, engaging and answers all my questions fully. This visit will put me behind prescription lenses for the first time in my life. Unlike many medical appointments, I actually look forward to seeing him again.
