Professional and kind
He's the only doctor I haven't had any issues with and I would recommend him to anyone
I trust Dr. Harder and have been seeing him do my macular degeneration for many years. He’s personable and kind.
Great, professional experience.
Excellent service as usual! Staff was also super. Thank you !
Excellent knowledge and help.
Nice enough, but way too rough performing certain eye exams. Last tests he performed actually hurt.
Wonderful Dr who offers confidence and calm. Thank you
Dr Harder is exceptional. I trust his judgement and personal care. He is honest, open, and informative. I am very fussy about who touches my eyes and I don’t want anyone else but him.
Dr Harder explained everything he was doing. He was kind and very efficient. I feel very lucky to have him as my doctor.
