Wonderful beside manner. He explained and answered all my questions.
Dec-2024
Fine if you are an easy, uncomplicated patient. While he tried to be nice his annoyance was obvious. He spoke to me like I didn’t have over a decade of awareness of my eye issues. It’s tough tho to find a competent ophthalmologist who also is a kind and patient human being. Those traits seem to not be compatible with ophthalmology. So, maybe he’s just a really technically competent provider. The office staff is extremely nice tho.
