Tanya answered the phone when I called, was such a friendly voice on the other end, and said she would talk to the doctor to see what they could do, though their schedule was full. Less than 15 minutes later I get a call back, and Tanya said the doctor would get me in. Just, WOW. I cannot tell you how grateful I was to find not only such a wonderful new eye doctor, but two...read full review
