Dr. Higgins & is Staff are truly the best in the profession. They are responsive & caring.
Terrific doctor, very polite, just a super dupper doctor, God uses him to perform miracles by making the blinds to see again. I recommend anyone to go see this handsome God eye doctor and his staffs are so pleasant, great customer service.
No compassion with his patient unlike Dr. Gutman, who spent time with his patient.
Very personable, wasn’t the doctor who did my surgery, so he didn’t really know my case
Dr. Higgins is the best. When I see him, 50% of the problems disappear.
Dr Higgins is an excellent surgeon a very caring and devoted to his patients
