Great,friendly and professional staff. Knowledgeable and informative. Took the time to explain all options...Dr. Ray is phenomenal!
I felt in good hands. This group of people were there to help me. I trusted from the start that i was in good hands
Perlmutter took very good care of me and everyone was so kind and respectful! They explained things clearly to me and repeated if I needed them to! I recommend Perlmutter highly!
Great place, good service and good doctors
Had cataract surgery and was supposed to have lenses that would not necessitate the need to wear glasses. I was near sighted before surgery and only needed glasses for distance. Most of my work is closeup; reading, writing, laptop screen. Now i need “readers” which are incredibly inconvenient . When I complained I was told to just hold things further away to read!
