Everyone was great! I just wish the Dr would have taken the time to listen also. He was very professional. If we did say something it was because we had to interrupt him bc he didn't ask a question except about what color my eye drops were. I was trying to tell him something bout me running into things that are to my side. And he didn't say what my vision was with my glasses but I know it was horrible bc I had to use rlly big letters. The corrected vision that was on there was with that glasses machine.

Dr. Joiner is a warm, caring physician who takes the time to fully examine you and make sure you understand your particular needs. I personally don’t know how he takes care of as many patients as he does. He is an extraordinary physician.
