I recently had an eye appointment to check for glaucoma. I was very worried and Dr. Ramsey was so kind and knowledgeable, explaining things and educating me on this. I was very impressed with his bedside manner, as I am a nurse and recognize the importance of being able to sit down and discuss things and not feel rushed. I received great news in that I do not have glaucoma, at this time, however, they will be watching this closely in the future. I would highly recommend Dr. Ramsey and have already recommended him to my colleagues.
Thank you Dr. Ramsey!
