Provider has identified issues with my eyes, explained them fully and monitors them. His recommendations for other experts for specific conditions have been especially welcome and on target. There is no question he is expert and professional as well as a great person to work with . I would recommend him to anyone with the conditions he manages and have done so in the past.
