Knowledgeable in his specialty. He explained my eye conditions clearly and is honest about what he knows and what is not his area where he cannot provide detailed information.

Had to wait for him to come in for my post op appointment. He did apologize. In retrospect he could have given more or better explanations of procedure. It’s routine for him but not me
