From my initial visit to my cataract surgeries and follow up - the reception team, billing team, clinical support staff, pre-surgical team and providers were thorough, kind, helpful, answered questions, didn't rush me, and made me feel a lot less afraid of cataract surgery. I never had to wait long in between exams and eye tests. Everything ran very smoothly. Dr. Barrett is the best - amazing bedside manner, kind, caring, compassionate and an amazing surgeon. Highly recommend Hollingshead Barrett Eye Center.
