Brief wait time. Testing with courtesy. I question why NO glaucoma testing. I was advised to schedule for later date. That sucks.

Dr Belinda’s is phenomenal. He explained things very clearly which put me at ease with the whole process. He has a wonderful bedside manner and was actually excited to help me. I’m very grateful.

Dr. Bekendam and his staff (the young lady, who checked me in and provided my receipt, Belinda, Lorraine, & Anna) all were respectful and cordial. Dr. Bekendam & Anna explained the cataract surgery and the different options.
