- Response from the ownerWe appreciate the very kind review! Thank you!
Outstanding experience. From sign in through all tests, professional support team. Dr Solomon considered best in the business. Wouldn’t go anywhere else for eye surgery.
Response from the ownerThank you for your kind review, Virginia! We’re glad you received professional care from check-in through your testing and felt confident choosing Dr. Solomon for your eye surgery.Dr Solomon and his entire staff and team are outstanding. I am thoroughly pleased with the eye surgery and “new” vision I have gained. From an individual needing corrective eyewear the majority of my life to now not needing anything is a blessing and gift. Highly recommend Kerry Solomon for your cataract and new lens surgery. You will definitely “see” the results!
