My appointment was just to long. I was there for a eye pressure check. The total time from appt. start time to ckeck-out was 1hour& 45 minutes. I sat in a holding area 1hr. In a exam room 30 mins. This has never happened before. I will report it if it happens again. WJA

Mr. Price has really got it together. My whole experience with him with outstanding five stars is never enough for a man that knows what he’s doing. I am very grateful and very happy for what he’s done for me. Thank you.

Dr. Price is always wonderful! He immediately explains his findings and has a gentle and friendly bedside manner. I am delighted to have found him via another physician who raves about him. His staff is also lovely and friendly. Most important, especially if you have other health issues like Type 2 diabetes, it’s ideal to have an ophthalmologist oversee your care, like Dr. Price.

His comment that the condition of my eyes will not improve but we must work to maintain status quo was a bit disturbing to me but I appreciate his honest assessment.
