What a wonderful Staff and Doctor!!!!

When I first made the appointment, this was the first time there. The person I talked to didn't ask for any of my information, so when they cancelled my appointment they didn't have my phone number to tell me it's cancelled. I was told when i showed up for the appointment. Other than that everything went really well.

If it weren't for Dr. Atherton, I would not have come back. Last year there were two staff people who really impacted my experience negatively, but this year was different. I came back because my Dr. is phenomenal, but this year the whole staff was too! Dr. Atherton remains exemplary. Great experience this year!

Well I called in to have my left eye looked at it only my left eye it turns out I have what they call floaters in my left eye I told the staff when they came in I came in to have my left eye looked at and they spent two hours doing a full eye exam on me and there's nothing wrong with my vision I repeated it several times and they still gave me the full eye exam the doctor apologized for it and to be honest with you I plan on disputing that bill it's like they didn't even listen to me was not very happy with the the staff the doctor I thought was phenomenal phenomenal

Although this provider was new, he was very knowledgeable about my case. He was professional but, super friendly, and put me at ease right away. He explained when I could expect the cataracts in my eyes to began affecting my vision, years from now, and shared that the process to remove them. He also asked my opinion about how I needed my prescription glasses to benefit me.

I contacted Dr Atherton to get a second opinion. He was so helpful in diagnosing the inflammation in my eye which flared up since I had been taken off my steroid eye drops, prematurely. He figured out why the inflammation was reoccurring from the shingles I had in it 2 years ago. I am so thankful that I came in to see him. His knowledge and patient manners are unsurpassed. He took a lot of extra time with me so he could get it right and explain my issues. He prescribed the medications that I desperately needed. Doctors like him are hard to find. THANK YOU Dr. Atherton!
