It was an overall a smooth experience.

Dr. Wiggins worked well with us on his recent surgery. He was very willing to answer any questions we had. He also worked with us on insurance timelines.

He took very good care of my 8 year old son.

He has been with my son since the beginning of our vision issue at 2 years old. He is now 8 and had corrective eye surgery. He helped me feel comfortable with the decision to have my son undergo surgery and it was successful.

Dr Wiggins is clearly an expert in his field and talks openly and clearly with patients

Dr Wiggins quickly diagnosed my eye condition and explained the prognosis and options. He answers questions in a clear way. He is methodical and efficient and professional.
