For your comprehensive eye exam, our well-trained, certified technical staff will greet you and take you to an exam room, after doing a computerized test of your vision. They will then go over any problems you have, asking questions about your allergies, medications, recent health problems, any surgery you have had, your lifestyle habits, family health and eye history.  After checking your visual acuity, a baseline physical assessment is performed to ready you for the ophthalmologist or optometrist to examine you.  

The surgery coordinators handle the multiple scheduling details, including dates of your primary doctor's physical, anesthesia evaluation, and other tests done at our office.  They will make the process as smooth for you as possible and give you all the information you require to keep you fully informed.  You will be given reminder schedules and booklets covering the surgical problem you have, for example, cataracts.

Each of our staff is hand picked for their intelligence, skills and compassion.  Our long-term patients come back year after year looking for their familiar smiling faces and capable, reassuring ways.
