She explains a lot re your procedure. Very pleasant personality.
She is very thorough and covered everything I needed to know. She is fantastic and I would highly recommend her services!
Great doc. Patient and thorough
Very nice!
This is for the management: she is an MD, not an OD, yet to sign outside the door that says which office the doctors are in, lists her as an OD. You should get that updated. She paid a lot of money for those initials and she should get full credit! :-)
Very understanding and took her time with me.
I went in for a specific reason that was specified before scheduling. Just to be seen for 1 minute and being told to go to a specialist. They knew that it was on my eyelid and still scheduled me to tell me I need to go somewhere else. Waist of time
Very impressed—comforting and answers all questions thoroughly. Superior credentials and competency.
Very patient and kind. Able to answer all my very detailed questions.
Very attentive to the patient concerns. And explained what was happening and treatment options
