Amazing!

Who would think you would say that going to the eye doctor would be amazing? Well, if you have to go this is where you want to go. Dr. Elman is kind, smart, thorough. His staff is amazing. Everyone is so friendly. It is the one doctor's office that I truly don't mind going to every 3 months.

Great...wait is too long.

Dr. Elman has a good attitude and manner with clients. The staff is polite and helpful, too. The only complaint is the wait time to see the doctor.

He was absolutely wonderful, in my 50 years of living, he is the best doctor I have ever seen. He explained everything thoroughly and made sure I understood my diagnosis.
