    This was my first visit at this location. I saw Dr. Patterson and was very happy with the exam. Dr Patterson was very thorough and patient in explaining what was causing my vision problems. I feel that I am in a good place in his care!!!

    I could be behind the times, but up until last year I've always paid $10 co-pay with my insurance. I didn't ask for anything to be done that requires my medical insurance! My retina specialist did that 2 months ago. Then the wait. They put you in a room, after 30 minutes of waiting I thought it was just best that I leave. BTW The sign out front says if you're 15 minutes late you have to reschedule your appointment, but it doesn't say anything about the doctor letting you sit in the room for 30 minutes plus.
